    What is the truth about 2K9 developers?

    Rumors have been skating around that, since the College Hoops series has been discontinued, members of the CH development team have switched over and have helped work on the NBA 2K9 title. Is this true? Any proof?

    If so, isn't this interesting to anybody else? Combinding talents and ideas of 2 great sports game titles is a huge plus, is it not? Doesn't this give NBA 2K9 huge potential?

    I think it's very good for NBA 2K9. But I'm not sure there's a proof that it actually happened.

      Either way 2k9 was going to have very strong potential, based on how good 2k8 was IMO.

            yeah I read that too. It was in one of the recent posts...don't rememerber which one. This could be very good for the game. Lets hope they were able to implement all or some of the good stuff into the bame since they are usually on strict time frame.

                  I can't imagine to many guys went over. How do you pay them??? It isn't like 2k is just raking it in.

                  I can't imagine this game had double the people so either some people were fired and the college guys came over or something else.

                    I said as much during the Q&A....

                    The CHoops producers were brought over to work on the NBA 2K series at the very least.

                        For anyone who hasent played CH 2k8 buy it now. You can buy it for 20 bucks. This is a good thread summery of what CH 2k8 did better than NBA 2k8.

                          Lets not forget who owns 2k..just some little 2nd hand game company called Rockstar games, money is not really an issue, sure they dont EAsports type cash flow but Rockstar puts out some solid games that rake in some serious cash.. GTA being one of them.

                            Hopefully you can import form CH2k8 into NBA2k9...I hope they atleast did that... I might have to email Rob Jones, and the old CH team....
