Re: NCAA BASKETBALL IMPRESSIONS THREAD PS3/360

Im not judging them on tats myself but I would love to have this game trounce CH2k8 in a big way.

As of right now it seems they are far far away from that and its disappointing. Its never good to have less customizations, everyone shooting the same jumpshot, using the same flawed costmetic layups and moves that the NBA game had that was finished months prior.

Im just very disappointed because I expected more than sim stats and 5 star recruits to take up most of the dev time

I don't understand the logic of REMOVING customization features, I guess it is a personal preference of how important it is (3-4 years ago it would have made me really upset), but nonetheless, I think the additions/improvements are enough for those removed options not to be a game breaker.

Re: NCAA BASKETBALL IMPRESSIONS THREAD PS3/360

CB thanks for getting to my question man! That makes me happy.

I know I may be crazy, but I had fun with the game last year. Everything posted thus far makes me believe I will enjoy this one even more.

I just love college basketball...

n/p...sorry it got lost in the shuffle for a few pages.

If you enjoyed last year, then you'll enjoy this year. Trust me.

I must be crazy too, because I enjoyed last year more than I thought I would.

so $60 or not? patch 1 should improve the gameplay as it did live 10.

Re: NCAA BASKETBALL IMPRESSIONS THREAD PS3/360

Hey guys. Last question before I head to bed...

It is fun?

and

If I love College Basketball like my own family, will I love this game?

That's worth my $60 any day.

Well that and the fact that OSIRIS ELDRIDGE IS AN 82!!! Long live the O-Hawk...

Re: NCAA BASKETBALL IMPRESSIONS THREAD PS3/360

Is it fun? Yes.

Here's my advice...if you liked last year's game or if you liked the demo, then you'll most likely enjoy this year's game. The demo did a terrific job of letting you know what the final build would be like.

Anything else, didn't play last year, didn't like last year, didn't like the demo, I'd strongly suggest you rent the game before buying.

The game is good, the game is fun, but the game isn't perfect. It has some rough edges, some are sharper than others. There are going to be things that some people can overlook and while others can't.

Customization level, announcers use of the name database, AI tourney selection logic, animations, limited individuality of players, no cpu ballhandler identifier, are all things that are rough spots for the game, and there are probably others that people will find. People need to ask themselves how important each of these aspects of the game are to them, before dropping $60.

In the end, the game does a good job of capturing college basketball. It got me through last winter and I expect it will help me get through this winter as well.

Take care...

Re: NCAA BASKETBALL IMPRESSIONS THREAD PS3/360

Hey CB if you get a second can you give me a run down on the starting five for Rhode Island and their ratings. If not, no big deal. Thanks for all the other impressions, good stuff.

Re: NCAA BASKETBALL IMPRESSIONS THREAD PS3/360

Hey country,

Someone said earlier there was a selection show. Is it any good compared to 2K8?

2k8's is better. The Selection Show in this game is some screens showing information, then Gus and Bill doing generic voice overs.
