Any real video game sports fans here?

I love basketball.

Back in the day, NBA Jam was the biggest time-waster our SNES multi-tap had ever seen. -and Brutal Sports Football on Jaguar was one of my favorite games on the system (for whatever that's worth). Since I'm not too into mainstream sports, I tend to prefer the made-up or over-the-top stuff much better.

Also, I thought SSX was phenomenal, if that even counts.

Its football and basketball for me. I own NFL 2k3 and NBA 2k2 and they're pretty fun to play when friends come around. Plus a couple of my friends own some version of Madden on PS2, that's great to play when I visit their pads.
