    Lost badly to Auburn then beat the Citadel by about 14. I, as the starting PG, led all scorers with 17 points!!

      Re: This game owns my soul.

      I got this game about a month ago after getting bored with NCAA Basketball '09. On '09 I had gotten so good that I won a National Championship in simple fashion with B- Georgia State in my first season. I would win pretty much every game by at least 20, and I absolutely hated it. Now on 2k8 I have just started a closed legacy, starting at Winston Salem State, and having to work my tail off to win games on Walk On (I'm not very good yet. Cut me some slack) and I couldn't be happier. It's nice to finally have to work as much as the real Winston Salem State would on a night to night basis.

        Re: This game owns my soul.

        Started a updated Iowa dynasty with the raiderfan's rosters and had a blast last night. Got in 4 games and am currently 2-2. I hadn't played since last March and I just love this game. Everything from training, to recruiting, to gameplay. Oh. And the presentation in this is better than anything EA has done with NCAA football.

        Man I wish 2K would have never given this title up. Just think how awesome it could be today considering the NBA 2K series is very good.

        Oh well. I'll enjoy 2K8. It's 2012 and this game doesn't feel that old at all.

          Re: This game owns my soul.

          Just picked this game up today for PS3. $2.99 at gamestop.

          I downloaded the "OS 11-12 V 2.5" roster from cpatt 88.

          It's very good, at least for the Big East (I'm a Seton Hall student/fan)

          I made changes to SHU so that all the players look right, but the ratings for the Big East teams looks pretty good.

          I wasn't sure if I would enjoy this game, but so far I like it a lot. It's awesome to play as the Pirates in the Prudential Center and to hear our fight song during the game. The gameplay isn't nearly as archaic as I thought it would be. Thanks to OS I now have a solid college bball game.

          My friend and I played SHU vs. Rutgers (I won as SHU of course) and we both had a great time, even though my friend has never really owned a bball game. He actually wants to get this now having played it just this one time.

              So I bought NBA 2K12 and have gotten back in CH 2K8. Let's just say that on yesterday I traded a guy on Craigslist NBA 2K12 for Uncharted 3.

              Player lock on this game is AWESOME!! 2-1 in my closed legacy with Charleston Southern.

                  I really want to enjoy this game but the spacing kills it for me. Man can someone update this game PLEASE. I want a college hoops game so bad but I can't do CH2K8 after playing hundreds of games in 2K11.

                    For anyone that player locks, how do you do your legacy? Do you still recruit etc or do you allow the CPU to handle that and you act as a player only?

                      Do you guys find it necessary to use custom playbooks?

                        Re: This game owns my soul.

                        In my closed legacy with Sacramento state (rsr33's 1-5-12 rosters) I am 1-2, but the last game I played was against Valpo. We started out beautifully knocking down jumpers and getting inside. We forced Valpo to jack up lots of bad shots and contested 3s. This was our third game in 3 days so after half time a 1 point lead turned sour. Valpo got the 6th man twice in like a minute when their star SF hit 3-4 threes in a row. After that we really looked tired and diminished. It was the first game in any sports title that I have lost and not been absolutely livid (we lost by 22). That was when I bowed my head to the game and said "I have found sports heaven, I'm not leaving"

                          Exactly, I play sports games and feel like I have the "decided schematic advantage" and get ticked off when I lose sometimes. But with this game it's like I lost fair and square, I simply got beat, accept it and move on. Love it.

                              Hmm, I didn't even know you could change the CPU playbooks lol, I just let them run whatever they run.
