NBA Inside Drive 2000 for Windows

Pros: Great Gameplay, accurate to the real game, smooth graphics even on low end systems
Cons: Lack of choosing the season length, a franchise option

When I first saw this game I was skeptical after playing Microsoft's first attempt at BBall a few years ago. Boy was I surprised!! Finally a PC basketball game that can compete with the NBA Live series from EA Sports. I've been playing sports games...

Pros: Gameplay, gameplay, gameplay. Graphics are smooth, the ball bounces differently with each miss, and the price can't be beat.
Cons: No carrer mode, can't choose season length, no network play

I was very skeptical of this title after seeing Microsoft's first basketball title so I was extremely surprised to see what an excellent title ID2000 truly is. The highlights for me include: the best and most accurate gameplay of any basketball sim,...

Pros: Worth the 20 bucks, no doubt about it
Cons: Need more customization

Let me tell you first, before I get into this review, that I have been very disappointed by every basketball game released to date. Sure, many of them are tremendous fun with another player, but I'm the kind of guy that likes to play seasons alone, and...

Pros: Sound
Cons: none

This game NBA Inside Drive 2000 is a great game. This game is produced by Microsoft, which is the biggest computer program company in the history of computers. If you want to see your favorite players this is game to see them on. I was hooked on this...

Pros: GREAT
Cons: GAME

I think NBA Inside Drive 2000 is great. I got it as a birthday present and it is great. I think if you try practice with multiplayer you will have a lot of fun. otherwise try a season. Every one should own a copy of NBA Inside Drive 2000. I know it is...

Pros: all action
Cons: long game

I bought this sports game for my son for his birthday last month and he has been enjoying ever since.It has been hard for me to get the computer since he enjoys the game so much.The graphics are so realistic as well as the sound effects.It is like you...

Pros: graphics, gameplay, white men can jump
Cons: lacks lots of statistical info, general manager features

Is it raining outside? Can't find anyone for the quick three on three? Do you just want to lace em up and grab the round ball for a game of 21 but don't have anyone to hoop it up with? I've got your solution. And I promise you won't have to pay more...

Pros: Incredible AI, great commentary, tons of coaching options
Cons: No career play, can be overly difficult

To me, Microsoft has been hit-and-miss with its games. I found NBA Inside Drive 2000 to be its best effort. Inside Drive has the absolute best AI of any basketball game I've played. I've tried a couple of the EA Sports offerings, and it just got too easy...

Pros: Good gameplay
Cons: Poor face expressions

Let me say, the graphics ARE impressive – before you start to actually play. When I clicked “Start,” I was whisked away to Madison Square Garden, courtesy of a swooping bird’s eye camera view that encircles each team and provides a beautiful view of the...

Pros: Good graphics, excellent game playing
Cons: Poor announcers, sub-par realism

It would be quite difficult to find a better NBA game for Windows on the market right now than Microsoft's NBA Inside Drive 2000. The graphics are quite good in the game, especially if you are using a better processor. One major concern that I had with...

Pros: graphics
Cons: unrealistic

I love this video game it is so much fun to play. When u play u feel like you are actually on the court with such supersater as Shaquille O'neal, Scottie Pippen, Kevin Garnett and young upcoming rookies like Wally sczerbiak. I recieved this game for my...

Pros: great graphics and good gameplay
Cons: difficult controls, hard without gamepad

When i first bought this game, i expected it to be like every other basketball game i'd ever played, fair graphics, good gameplay. i found it a little different when i first loaded NBA Inside Drive 2000. The graphics were definatley comperable to any...

Pros: Somewhat realistic game
Cons: Controls are bad, Commentators annoying, No create a player

NBA Inside drive 2000 is a good attempt at a basketball game by Microsoft, but there are clearly better basketball games out there. I have every NBA live game up to 1999, and was not too impressed with the changes made every year. I saw this game...

Pros: Graphics, updated rosters
Cons: Unrealistic results

I really enjoyed NBA Live '99, and I had heard some good things about Inside Drive. So I thought I would give it a try. There are some good things about this game--some very good things. The graphics are awesome. It just looks cool--much better than NBA...

Pros: Slick menus, good challenge
Cons: Challenge is generated by cheating, sloppy control, bad graphics on software, slow frame rate on hardware

Microsoft's second NBA PC game attempt (some of you may remember NBA Full Court Press, which wasn't very good, more like terrible), NBA Inside Drive offers mostly arcade-like play, and really can't compare with NBA Live 2000. Don't let the $20 price tag...
