Re: College Hoops 2K12 -- A Mock Review
I agree that College Hoops 2K8 is still the best 2K basketball game.
Legacy mode remains the best offline franchise mode in any sports game.
Presentation and atmosphere is top-notch.
Gameplay isn't bogged down by all the excessive animations and isomotion controls that later 2K games introduced.
Cramped floor spacing and a poor play-calling system are the only sore spots.Comment

Re: College Hoops 2K12 -- A Mock Review
I wish 2K8 resembled NBA 2K11 with regard to fluid player movements and floor spacing. Players are a bit "stiff" in their movements, and the shooting animations get a bit stale after time. A great game, and it's a shame there is no updated college hoops option to play. Maybe with the NBA lockout there would be a renewed interest in a college basketball video game, but with a lack of star power (as there was years ago) I don't think the game could market itself well enough. There were more stars in the Big East Conference alone (for example) in the 1980's than the ENTIRE NCAA has today...STEELERS INDIANS CELTICS

I remember when CH2K8 was first out, and march madness was out as well. I remember playing MM 2008 because a friend had gotten it, and it was my worst video game experience ever. CH2K8 was the best college baskeball game of all time though.
Point being. I was working at wal-mart as a cashier at the time, and a little boy with his mom came to my line and brought up MM 2008 because he wanted a college basketball game (first one ever for him) and I respectfully told her that that game is terrible, and if she really wants to give her son a good experience, she should buy the other basketball game, plus it was cheaper. She did...I like to think that I changed that kids life forever.twitch: www.twitch.tv/clonefan84Comment

Truth. So much truth.
If 2K ever does another college basketball game, it MUST have classic teams just like NBA 2K11 and 2K12 has classic NBA teams."I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying."

Exactly. EA has exclusive rights to NCAA Football- not basketball. 2K has constantly addressed this issue to the media; the NCAA licensing fees are too damn high, making the production of a NCAA Basketball game not worth the hassle or profit. 2K explained this to the NCAA but they weren't trying to hear it. So College Hoops got canned. =(:::::: I used to play College Hoops 2K7 way more than NBA2K7, and they were both great games.Comment

I'd pay $90 for this game easily...furthermore, although I'd like to see improvements. If they gave me NBA 2k12 gameplay with CH2k8 dynasty mode with updated uniforms, I'd be a happy camper. Let the community worry about the rosters.Comment

Re: College Hoops 2K12 -- A Mock Review
never understood why we could not just get a roster update from 2k every year via 2kshare and ability to use the rosters online. With everything being fully editable dont really see any way to get sued for player likenessComment

Re: College Hoops 2K12 -- A Mock Review
If they could just use the NBA 2k11/12 gameplay and the same set up in legacy mode as CH2k8 with some recruiting tweaks, the game would never leave my 360.Comment

But if you just play Choops then you have nothing to compare it to so it does not look nearly as bad.
Amazing how you can trick the mind if you try(well mine anyway!)......lol
