The Ball Is In Your Court, And It’s Time To Play A Little 5 On 5.

Finally it’s here. The basketball game you’ve dreamed of. The first home game with 5 on 5, full court, board banging action. A contest with graphics so real, they’ll knock your high tops off.

Ready to captain your team to the title, you bolt into the arena with electricity in your fingers and ice in your veins. Intensity builds. The crowd roars. The game is yours to win or lose. But to win you’ll need speed in the lane, touch for three pointers, muscle to power past picks, and the skill to crash the glass. And, if you break free underneath – watch out! Because now you can power home a rim rockin’ slam.

So, pull up your shorts and take a deep breath. It’s crunch time, time to show your stuff.

SLAM DUNK TO VICTORY

It's full-court, board-banging action with five-man teams, and a stadium full of roaring fans. The 24-second shot clock, free throws, three pointers, and foul shots are all part of this basketball game with all the challenge and excitement of the real court.

GAME PLAY: Pick from three levels of play depending on your "b-ball" skills, when playing the computer. Or play a friend, and pick from four top professional teams. Dribble the ball, and snap a quick pass to your man in the lane for a crowd-thrilling slam dunk and two quick points. It's not always like this. Your opponent catches on to your game fast, and blocks the path down the lane. If you're feeling hot, you can even let a ringer fly from three-point territory. So get out your high tops and show your stuff!

Double Dribble, the first 5-on-5, full-court home-basketball game, is pure hoops action at its finest. While still a surprisingly accurate basketball game for its time, the frantic action keeps you on your toes as your players run from one end of the court to the other. Choose from a handful of teams and multiple levels of difficulty as you take on the computer alone or challenge a friend and see who has the better skills. Take the ball and sink shots from locations all over the court, or get in your opponent’s face and do your best to block the shot. Better yet, drive the lane and rock the rim to see one of the game’s trademark slam-dunk cut scenes! He shoots, he scores!

The Ball Is In Your Court,And It's Time To Play A Little 5 On 5!

Ranked number one by the scouts, this world championship caliber, 5 on 5, full court, board banging contest has graphics so real it'll knock your high tops off!

From the opening tip to the final buzzer, you'll have a shot at leading your team to the title against either a friend's squad or the computer's all-star lineup.

And if you break free underneath, you can power home one of three rim rockin' slams — the Reverse, the Gorilla or the In-Your-Face Jam.

Of course, if your style is too intimidating, the refs will blow the whistle and give your opponent a couple of "Free-Bs".

ITS TIME FOR A LITTLE HARDWOOD HYSTERIA

Your coach leads the team in a pre-game moment of silence. The only sound heard from the locker room is the methodical dripping of a leaky showerhead. Then, with an intensity in his eyes, coach looks up and growls "Time to crash the boards!" The screams of 40,000 strong reverberate through the packed arena as you blast out of the tunnel and into the blinding camera light of the national media. Welcome to the only pro-style, five on five game ever to hit the hardwood!

In this conquest to be the best, you'll need to have more talent in your little fingers than the competition as you try to slam, pass, steal, free throw, jump shoot and drive the lane against eight different teams. Each with players of varying strengths and weakness. The cameras will even zoom in when you go airborne for the rim rockin' slams! But don't become a foul-happy hatchet man or the refs will have you turning the ball over more than a flapjack cook at a Pancake Emporium. Pump up the high-tech hi tops, you're jammin' with the big boys now!### Featuring simultaneous play for two players with Game Link™, or play against the computer.
