Sounds great. I'll likely pick it up once all the bugs are worked out.

It will take a lot to be better than FBCB.
But that doesn't mean I won't check it out. |

TPB's track record here is a good sign. Although I hope the 2D game presentation is better here (can't tell which player is which on the court, play-by-play is too far away from the court to follow). And I hope I'll be able to watch the 2D view in a multiplayer league after the games are simmed without having to see the game result first.

Very exciting news. Gary did a great job on TPB and I'm sure the college game will be very good.

Awesome to hear! I'm sure Arlie's experience with the previous college bball game wont go to waste either.

I can verify that the 2D presentation is definitely upgraded from TPB into a much more fluent display as the player icons will actually move around the screen now as opposed to simply appearing in their spots as happens in TPB. It will definitely be an entertaining in-game experience. |

I hope one day we will see a pro-football and college football sim like this. Gary, although I don't like basketball but I talked a friend into buying TPB and he loves it. I was VERY impressed with it as well. Great job. I can only imagine what TCB will bring. Last edited by maximus : 08-12-2005 at 01:52 PM. |

Excellent. I just got TPB the other day and was hoping for a college version.

Dunno, but I got dibs on UNC! (If TCB blows FBCB out of the water and there is no FBCB2 in the forseeable future then we'll have a hell of a decision+task on our hands, I suppose, but that's way too far away to think about now). |

Just for the record because someone asked on the GDS board - there will be a TPB update after TCB to allow TCB draft classes to move into TPB |

A sim game thread not posted by JB. Man he's been slacking lately. Kudos Gary on the College BB game. Now, if I can only get into college BB as much as College Football.

Finally! A new sim game. Just the wrong sport.
Kidding of course. Nice job, Gary.

It's about time you announced it. I was getting sick trying to keep it a secret.
Gary has the right approach with this, and he's got some great ideas. I'm hoping a couple of my ideas make it in, but I'll keep working on him. -John |

Make sure the TPB update also exports Draft results to HTML. That'll be crucial for the TPB league I'll be running alongside our TCB league...

I'm really, really looking forward to this one myself. It means I'll be able to continue my Gabriel Arcadia dynasty even after La Tulipe's roster files run out.

Looking forward to this game. Enjoyed TBP 2005 very much (except maybe the AI valuing young players a bit more). The presentation style was extremely top notch. Not to mention, thanks for letting everyone know what game is on the horizon.

I have very little interest in a basketball sim but that actually sounds pretty fun. I'll be paying attention to the early returns.
