NBA Inside Drive 2000
(PC) Interview Page 3

Publisher: Microsoft
Release Date: August 1999

4/16/99

As you might know, Microsoft Baseball 2000 uses a separate program to edit players, will NBA Drive 2000 do the same or will it be integrated into the game?

    There will be no officially supported player editor in this version; however, we've designed the game in such a way that a separate player editor program could easily be offered after we release the product.

Will you be able to create custom teams/leagues/championships?

    No, not in this version.

Will all the NBA awards be in the game? (MVP, Rookie of the Year...)

    Yes, including a "Player of the Game" awarded at the end of every game.

Is the game going to have referees running up and down the court?

    No, not in this version. It's something we definitely considered, but we felt the effort was best spent on getting the AI and gameplay just right.

Who will be doing the play by play or PA announcing?

    Kevin Calabro, former NBA Announcer of the Year, and Marques Johnson (former announcing partner of Kevin Calabro, now an analyst with Fox Sports). We feel that our play-by-play and color commentary is the best ever in any sports game. In conjunction with the great gameplay, it really makes you feel as though you are experiencing a real NBA game. It truly puts the game over the top in terms of thrill and fun factor. You really have to experience it to understand what I'm talking about. I've played the game for countless hours and I'm still amazed and entertained by Kevin's and Marques' commentary.

Any last comments you would like to add?

    We're really looking forward to introducing a great PC basketball game to all of your readers at The Sports Gaming Network. We think they're going to be blown away by all that they're going to be getting for twenty bucks. Thanks for taking the time and interest to talk to me today about NBA Inside Drive 2000.

We would like to thank Darryl for taking time out of his busy schedule to shed some light on NBA Inside Drive 2000. NBA Inside Drive 2000 is being developed by High Voltage Software.
