    Total College Basketball Hands On Preview (PC)

    We have just posted our Total College Basketball hands on preview. Find out what Aaron Holbert thinks about the game so far.
    "Grey Dog Software strikes again with another text-based simulation, Total College Basketball. Now ,the developers at Grey Dog know what they are doing when it comes to creating text-based basketball games. Grey Dog’s developers created several other basketball games, including Coaching a Dynasty, Total Pro Basketball and Tournament Dreams College Basketball. All three of those games were solid, so when I heard about Total College Basketball I knew this game had a chance to be great."

    Is this on anyone else's radar? It looks pretty good to me, especially considering I enjoyed some of this team's earlier offerings like Tournament Dreams.

    Anyway, the demo is available for download here, and the full game will be available for online download and purchase tomorrow night.

      This is definitely on my radar and I'll definitely be purchasing the game when it goes live for download tonight. I haven't played the demo yet, but I have played Total Pro Basketball before and it's a very good game. Since I like the whole NCAA recruiting/dynasty process a lot more than the same process in the NBA, I figure this game will be right up my alley.

      I hope we can run the 4-guard offense as well as Jay Wright can....

        I liked their NBA efforts. I actually did some court and jersey mod work for their game two years ago. So if youve played the NBA counterpart with real courts, thats all me

        I'll be downloading and checking this out too.

          How come I can't find a mod with player names in it?

              That would be because no one has made one yet.

                No one has made one and no one probably will because its a college game. Most of the real life players will be gone after four years so I would be surprised if someone goes through the effort to rename and rate the players.

                  This game is good I love coaching in it. Since you can play the demo for a year (in-game) I think I'll wait to get the full version but it is cool. Recuritings done nice and you have options while coaching like setting up a play out of a timeout.
