NBA Live 99 Ships

Electronic Arts announced it is shipping its highly-anticipated NBA Live 99 interactive basketball game for the PC.

NBA Live 99 Ships is the story on November 10, 1998, and it is one of those late-1998 PC gaming updates that says exactly where the scene is right now. Electronic Arts announced it is shipping its highly-anticipated NBA Live 99 interactive basketball game for the PC. The NBA Live basketball series is the favorite interactive basketball game for many NBA players, including NBA All-Star and Boston Celtic Antoine Walker, who regularly plays NBA Live before his real basketball games.

For players keeping track of patches, demos, hardware drivers, online events, and retail releases, this is the sort of news that can change what gets installed tonight. The business side keeps moving, and sometimes those deals decide what we actually get to play next year.
