NBA inside drive 2000

NBA Inside Drive was a series of basketball video games published by Microsoft Game Studios. NBA Inside Drive 2000 was the first in the series and was released only for PC, later followed by NBA Inside Drive 2002, 2003, 2004 released only fox Xbox.
NBA Inside Drive for PC was released on August 27, 1999. It was pretty solid game by my opinion (at least until NBA live 2000 for PC was released). I especially like the commentary duo and three throw shooting mechanics in this game.

this game is the most realistic game i've played. it can airball even near the net, but any other basketball game it will touch the net no matter how far you are even all the way to the other side.

[@jasonburke147]

This is an excellent game.

[@gabi_online]

big facts!

[@sdutango]

this game has the best mechanism. unlike all other NBA games, any one and year, you can shoot it from your court and hit the ring. this game you can have air ball for bad release even from very close or anything that can happen in real live. sure the graphics is outdated, but I like that they make everything so real.

[@glutamin111]

+SDU-Tango Agreed! i really liked the mechanics in this game, was much more exciting to take jumpers and 3 point shots in this game then any nba live series up to that date. Was more realistic.

[@manciniryan]

Yes, this game is outstanding I love it. I never forget when I played once.

My childhood

[@jarrodr779]

I used to play this for hours as a kid, the commentary is what I remember the most “good golly miss Molly what a play” “kumbaya my lord, kumbaya”

[@aerrhh]

Best NBA Game of all time! Where I met Kobe Bryant and start to follow him!

[@lisafan6365]

used to play this with the sidewinder game pad hitting shots with derek fisher who was a beast in this game

[@dumaznbum]

this sure brings me back :)

[@musicperson94z]

My memory on this game is that the AI players running so fast it's totally impossible to run a fastbreak.

[@LakeShowtime]

This is my first ever basketball game on pc.. Still remember playing the trial because i had no money to purchase the full version. It was sad because i want to play the lakers and i was stuck playing the knicks and the spurs because they are the only 2 teams on the trial game 😂😂 i still remember playing allan houston at latrell sprewell assuming those two is kobe it was pure sadness. 😂😂

[@philojudaeusofalexandria9556]

I played this to death. Loved the tongue-in-cheek color commentary.

[@ericbeery8570]

My favorites were "he's shootin the cold, slippery, FROZEN rock tonight" and "don't run with the scissors boys!"

[@jnjnash99]

this was a great game.

[@gabi_online]

It sure was Justin!

[@arthurkurbedzis]

What is funny this game of 1999 looks way more interesting than the 2K2* series.

[@kts2k6]

Can you please show us the Player Ratings from every team?

[@vanwrightc518]

Anyone 2020. This is my first nba game on my PC

[@Klemy2K]

It was mine too :) I played demo version alot before live 2000 came out

[@Klemy2K]

overall NBA live 2000 is much better game (better graphics, gameplay, more game modes..), but this game is also fun to play I must say and i like how game sounds (crowd and commentary). Shooting free throws is also fun in this game, accuracy of the shot and ball reaction with the basket is totaly based on your accuracy and power.

[@philojudaeusofalexandria9556]

Disagree about NBA live. It has more game modes, yes. But the gameplay in this is WAAAY better and I far prefer the graphics, as well. Not to mention I like the commentary so much better. Live2000 was horrible aside from the fairly well-developed franchise mode. SegaSports 2K was good, but InsideDrive2000 had by far the best gameplay.

[@vanwrightc518]

This my first nba game

[@philojudaeusofalexandria9556]

Only criticism was that bigs and post game were way overpowered. You could take any big man scrub and go off for 50+. Much harder with perimeter players.

[@jkd32332]

Can you do Lakers vs Raptors or Lakers vs Sixers in this game please?

[@piermariocaldarulo2743]

Hi, I'm searching for this game (pc) so badly! Back in the days it was my favourite one! Does anybody know if there's a direct link or similar to download it?

[@bobbyjones1893]

[@Antonio25668]

@cjele which game do you like the most on the pc, NBA Inside Drive 2000, or NBA LIVE 2000?

[@Antonio25668]

@cjele I have the PS1 version of NBA Live 2000.

[@simonasmarcinkevicius4343]

NBA Inside drive 2000 has much better engine, more realistic gameplay, than other NBA game, NBA 2K also has realistic game engine, that"s mean both of games has speed and intensity. But comparison these games with NBA Live 2000 or other series game from NBA Live 95 to NBA Live 2002, NBA Live 2000 was more realistic on single grafical details, but not on game engine, because bigest problem was on Live series games until NBA Live 2002, that's game deffense was so much hard and dominate, than offense, but in real NBA game is reverse side, that's mean game deffense is not too hard and dominate, than game offense. NBA Live 2003 was first series game, who game engine was changed, and game deffense was that is realistic NBA game, not too strong, not too easy, that's who is in real NBA basketball, where dominate game offense, but not deffense.

[@jkd32332]
