Re: This game owns my soul.

anyone have backup copies? i been thinking about buying an extra copy for 360 and 2 copies for the ps3. am i crazy?

If I see a CH for $30 I will buy it as insurance. There's no telling how long I will be playing this game.

Re: This game owns my soul.

I think I've read about this before, but will it be easier for me to read some of the text when I upgrade to a hdtv in a couple weeks? I just got a ps3 and I'm playing it in sd, and some of the text, mostly in roster management screens is very small and hard to read.

To reiterate what others have said...yes...it will be MUCH easier to read the text on an HDTV. You will LOVE the difference.

Re: This game owns my soul.

I think what keeps me going in this game is the goal of recruiting my IDEAL team which would consist of 2 5th year bigs, 2 4 year bigs, a super fast PG and a combination of 3 solid slasher/shooters in the 2 and 3 position and a 3-point expert for zones. Very close to what I have now except I would have another Zoubek for the blocks.

Having said that, it will be difficult to get a team that rivals my current squad all around.

See, what'll happen is. You'll go out and buy an extra copy, and the game will never break. But if you don't buy another one, you'll be like "damn, shoulda gotten that other copy"

Re: This game owns my soul.

All this talk has me amped to get the game...but which version should I get PS3 or 360? NOTE: I have no interest in playing online.

It doesn't matter,both are same IMO.

As far as no online,I myself don't play online because the Legacy Mode will grab a hold of you and won't let go and you wouldn't want it too.......Everyday I say to myself "gotta finish up my NBA 2K8 season".....moments later,I'm playing CH2K9 because it just draws you in.

Re: This game owns my soul.

I'm playing against Portland St and I'm Northern Colorado. I'm so glad to have my bigman center to do stuff. Portland's tallest player is a 6'9 sf / pf who they matchup outside because I guess he can shoot. Their center is 6'6". I pass it inside and shoot. It is like I am in middle school playing the elementary school kids. You remember when you went up against those older kids and one had a mustache? Yeah it is like that.

I think when you do get that team though, you are going to have even more fun then you're having now.

For me playing with(and against) players who are generated by the game is always much more fun then playing with the default "real" players.(I feel the same way in all sports games)

When I get a recruit I have hope that he plays a a certain way, but no preconceived expectation of how he should perform. When I have a team full of "my" guys I feel much more immersed in the game.

When I play against default roster teams too often I think things like, "Danny Green isn't blocking enough shots or throwing up enough ill advised 3's."

"Fake" players create their Legacy in total.

Re: This game owns my soul.

So, I probably just had my best 3 games of my life in this game. So I am the 11 seed in the NCAA Tourney and I faced IUPUI in the first round. I beat them with ease. They really had no answer for Harden. I believe he had like 28. Then the next round was against 3 Tennessee. And this is year 2 so Lofton is gone. They had led pretty much the whole way. So at halftime I had put a press on. It was fullcourt trap and I wanted to see what would happen. So there is about 5 minutes left when I felt like taking it off when they kept beating the press. But Chris Polk my starting shooting guard started picking passes off. We ended up winning by 8. I went on to play number 2 Providence and boy was this a fun game. James Harden versus Weyinmi Efejuku. Efejuku had got off to a hot start and then grew cold. Harden however started cold and warmed up. He ended up with 47+. It was some awesome 3 games the most fun ever.

Re: This game owns my soul.

Finally, after 4 years I achieved the crowing moment in this game winning the national title with Florida State. After making the dance in each of my four seasons, this one ended in jubilation. The first two years saw me being bounced in the 2nd round. Then in year three I made it to the Final 4, only to be ousted in the semifinal. With my starting five consisting of 1 Jr and 4 SR's, the depth and experience came through in year 4. Now maybe recruiting will open up a little bit.

Dude where ya been? Dynasty play hasn't been as exciting without someone to listen over the headphones to my pangs of agony after dropping yet another game to Mississippi-How-The-Hell-Do-They-Keep-Beating-Me-State.

I just got back from Panama City and I'm gonna play my NCAA First Round game tonight against Kansas. Holla if you're on.
