College Hoops 2K12 -- A Mock Review

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...

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.

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.

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.

WHAT DO WE NEED TO DO TO GET THIS GAME BACK!!! lol Man i miss this game!

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 likeness

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.
