Show off your mad handling skills in NBA Shootout 2004. The nonstop action will keep your adrenaline pumping.

Features:

* NBA players like you've never seen before - Play with 50 of the greatest NBA players to ever step foot on the court. Now you can unlock 50 of the best retired players in the game by accomplishing goals attributable to each of them. You want to play with Chamberlain? Score 100 points in a game. Go after Cousy, Malone, Ewing, Magic, Worthy, Barkley, Drexler, and more. Start today and build a dynasty of the ages.
* Career Mode - Top-Rated Career mode is back for its sophomore debut. Put your name and number on the floor with the pros. See if you have what it takes to keep yourself in the lineup as you run the floor to the Finals. But before you begin your career in the NBA, you'll have to kick it off in the Summer Pro League, earn a spot in the National Basketball Development League and work your way through the ranks to get signed. Only then do you have the skills to play along side the best in the game. And only with NBA ShootOut 2004 do you even have the opportunity.
* MiniPlays - All-new MiniPlays make some multibutton combinations of the past obsolete. With the new control schematic, offensive minded gamers can call for the give-and-go, swing out, or have players cut to the basket. Defensive MiniPlays include double teams, deny and press defense, and intentional fouls. MiniPlays define a control system that is simplistic and intuitive.
* Practice Mode - Practice mode returns giving you an opportunity to get focused before you put yourself in the game. Practice tips and timing techniques that will help you become an offensive flurry and a free throw expert.
* Mid-Air Shot Changes - Mid-air shot changes are now made with just a simple button press. Shooters will now have the ability to reposition shots and avoid defenders after they are already in the air or they can simply pass out of the shot to an open shooter.
* Real Attributes - New gameplay features smooth player movement and attribute-based speeds. When Kobe hits the gas, he leaves Vlade behind. With the ball, T Mac's triple-threat fakes, crossovers, and spins make defenders dizzy. The one-touch controls allow instant access to multiple unique dribble moves. Defensively, Payton plays like The Glove with a slick and active defensive stance, quick steal, and screen-avoidance AI.
