Michael Jordan and the Washington Wizards take on Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers in NBA Inside Drive 2003 on the Original Xbox!
In this matchup, MJ turns back the clock and explodes for 53 points against Kobe and the Lakers in one of Microsoft's most underrated basketball games of the early 2000s.
NBA Inside Drive 2003 was Microsoft's answer to NBA 2K and NBA Live during the OG Xbox era. While it never reached the popularity of those franchises, it delivered solid gameplay, impressive graphics for its time, smooth animations, and one of the best presentations available on the original Xbox.
Years later, there's still something special about loading up these classic basketball games. No battle passes. No microtransactions. Just basketball.
Was NBA Inside Drive underrated?
Could it compete with NBA Live and NBA 2K back then?
