    Re: This game owns my soul.

    Just had another **** game to remind me of why I love this game.

    My North Texas Mean Green were 18-1, defending nat'l champs, and ranked #4. Hadn't lost a game at home in over 4 years. Taking on Arkansas St, the #2 team in the Sun Belt. ASU was on us the entire game. Couldn't stop them on defense.

    Cut to the chase: We were down 4 with under 20 sec left, make a basket to cut it to 2. Then they broke our FC press, had a man wide open for the layup that would have sealed it, and they missed it. I call timeout with 5.9 sec left. I decided quickly that I was going to go for the win. Advance the ball w/ my PG Kaylan Sherrod, swing it out to SG Colin Freije, wide open on the wing for 3, buckets! Game over. I'm sure everyone's had a moment like this. Winning a game which you should have lost and had given up all hope on.

      i had a game a few days ago with my Northern Colorado squad where i was down 3 with a little under a minute left, i shot up a few 3's with an average 3-point shooter and missed em all, i fouled every time and the other other team (don't remember right now) missed 4 foul shots in a row!!! i should have lost by 10 but instead i got 1 last chance with 6 seconds left, i advance the ball with PG Will Figures and wing it out to SG Sean Taibi this time instead of my SF Jefferson Mason even though Taibi was havin a terrible game he nails the 3, sends it into overtime where we ride the momentum of the buzzer-beater and win

        LOVE THIS GAME.

        2-4 thus far....but I am hooked big time. This is basketball. Not a dunk fest at all and you need to run plays or the AI will figure you out quick.

        So happy I am finally playing this gem of a game.

          Re: This game owns my soul.

          Snuck in a game on my lunch hour.

          The Anteaters have won 3 in a row! Beat Utah State today by 11.

          THIS GAME IS AMAZING.

          It is getting me stoked for 2K11 too.

          I love the control on this puppy. And I love the fact it is not a dunk fest. Running plays 80% down the floor. It is a thing of beauty. I am becoming very attached to certain players already.

            sadly, i wish 2k11 played as well as this game, sure the arenas and the jerseys look great but, well at least 2k10, the control was terrible, and i wish 2k10 played as SIM as college hoops 2k8, i'm hoping 2k11 will be better cause i'd really like to run with some of the classic teams

              Well there lies the key for 2K11. And from what I reading on the demo (XBOX360 I am chomping at the bit for the PS3 one) the contro is silky smooth, defense is great, PIP more of a challenge, running plays is beautiful. Like CH2k8.


              I am so happy to play this game right now though. Best basketball game I have ever played.

              We just need the NBA game to at least get close. And they have been. I have a great feeling 2K11 will slay them all.

                Re: This game owns my soul.

                just blew a 20 point 1st half lead to Indiana in my Michigan legacy. Ended losing by 2 points in overtime thanks to a goal tending call on a 3 pointer that i swore was coming off the rim. I blew them out by 22 in my first meeting. Hopefully i'll meet them again in the conference tourney. i love this game

                  Re: This game owns my soul.

                  I am thinking about picking this game up on the PS3. Are the servers still up to download rosters and does it play smoothly on the ps3?

                        This is why I keep goaltending off. I've had it called too many times while rebounding just off the rim. The game does a pretty good job of keeping me and the cpu from exploiting the rule being turned off, so I've never looked back.

                          Good call. I will do the same. I had some really questionable calls on that already in my 9 games played into my inaugrial legacy!

                            Is there a camera similar drive on 2k10 or baseline on the EA Sports basketball games?

                              I know there's a drive cam because I use it sometimes. I'm pretty sure theres a baseline cam too, overall the camera options are really good so you should be able to find one (or more) that you like.

                                Thanks. I love drive because camera rotates.
