NBA superstar Shaquille O'Neal will grace the cover of NBA Inside Drive 2004, the exclusive Xbox basketball title from Microsoft Game Studios and a featured game in the XSN Sports brand. NBA Inside Drive, with its fluid gameplay and lifelike player models (decked out in tattoos and cornrows), is taking its game online with the help of Xbox Live. Utilizing revolutionary new Web-based technology exclusive to XSN Sports, basketball gamers and sports fans can easily organize teams, leagues, and schedules from a centralized Web site, XSNsports.com, which pulls the information from Xbox Live. New "jukes" and post moves will be "breaking ankles" all over the court, and a revamped defensive game will be shutting down high-scoring teams and making them run home to their mamas. With thumpin' hip-hop beats, online play, and innovative commentary, NBA Inside Drive 2004 has the best on-court and online competition.
