Please bring this back 2K!!! (and one more year of MLB 2K so the minor bugs can be wrinkled out and I can support the "underdog" gaming company that does a lot with a little--as opposed to EA that does a little with a lot **except for soccer, hockey, and occasionally golf**) 2K should have NBA, College Basketball, MLB, and NFL; EA should have College Football, FIFA soccer, NHL, Tiger Woods, and Skateboarding (Skate 3 was--and still is--awesome)!!!

After one more year of MLB 2K, EA can come back to MLB with MVP Baseball with the GM mode that allows you to set ticket sales, bobblehead days, fan appreciation days, etc. But after one more year of MLB 2K... That would be nice!Comment

If 2K will revive this they will for sure make money. I hope in the next generation console, we could still play this game.Comment

Even though the gameplay is outdated the memories from this game will live forever. The CPU would punish you like no other game when you lapsed mentally. Some notable games for me:
1) Taking my undefeated Wake Forest team (Jeff Teague, James Johnson, Al Aminu, Ish Smith, etc...) into the Carrier Dome and getting demolished by Johnny Flynn and that 2-3 zone. I was cold from the outside and the zone neutralized my athleticism on the wing.
2) Losing in Double OT in the elite 8 with my Hoyas vs Gonzaga. Twice I thought I had the game won only to see the Zags hit storm back and beat me.
3) Making the Final 4 with the Demon Deacons and getting blasted by eventual champion Louisville. Terrance Williams just dominated me getting close to a triple double. Their pressure defense was vintage Pitino.
I loved how there were hidden gems in recruiting as well as busts. You need a shooter, go out and recruit one. Recruiting was so deep and challenging. It actually made you think about how many scholarships you had available.
A day 1 purchase if it ever were to come out again.
An online legacy mode would be incredible.Comment

Re: Revisiting College Hoops 2K8
i still don't understand how people prefer the newer gameplay to this. the players in this game feel so much more independent and alive. the movements are so much more real and it feels a hell of a lot more like basketball than the other games.
the only thing the new NBA games have over 2k8 is the different shot types, the fadeways and drifters, as well as the eurostep (although in the NBA games anybody can do the eurostep so its not like that even works well)
NBA 2k12/2k11 is so stiff and robotic, i don't get anywhere near as into those games as i do when i play 2k8Comment

Re: Revisiting College Hoops 2K8
Just starting my 2nd season at Montana State after having a great start to my new career... made the the tournament after going 15-1 in conference play and dominating the conference tournament, but lost in the first round. still stoked though, 21-9 overall, completed 10 career objectives and scored a nice recruiting class for season 2... aiming for another tournament bid and a deeper run this season :-)Comment

Still playing this game. Created all-time teams for most of the schools in the bigger conferences and playing a season. This game has some of the best animations ever in a bball game.Comment

Re: Revisiting College Hoops 2K8
yup more responsive, and the dynamic passing is what I really like. I love throwing the perfect boune pass on a 3 on 1 fast break, or that perfect bounce past on a player with good hands cuttingf to the basket. I alos love it when some players cant handle the pass.Comment

Re: Revisiting College Hoops 2K8
Does the game prompt you to download the patch. I got CH2k8 a few months back for the ps3 and I don't remember if it updated or not.Comment

Absolutely love this game. Thought I had finally gotten to the point of where I was done with it.........until this weekend. I've put in 7 hours over the past two days. When the urge to play some college b-ball strikes, this game is the only heavyweight still standing for me. Screw EA and their goofy, mediocre excuse for a college basketball game. March Madness/NCAA Basketball is a complete joke compared to CH2K8. I can't understand for the life of me why 2K doesn't bring this series back. I hear it blamed on poor sales. I thought EA was the reason why 2K had to drop the license because they got an exclusive deal with the NCAA? Even still, wasn't NBA 2K selling poorly before 2K11/MJ? They kept making those. You don't give up on a great game because it isn't out-selling Wii Sports. You stick with it and keep making it better. I can only imagine how good this game would be today if they kept it up.
Anyway, 8.5 sounds about right to me. This is a great game that stands the test of time very, very well. One of my favorite things to do is steal the ball and get out on a fastbreak and alley-oop to my big center with my surround-sound cranked. BOOM!!!!!!!! And the crowd goes YEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Love it!
Bring it back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Comment
