It's funny how many games I've been swayed into buying from reading posts or watching videos on this site.........I may have been lured in once again

Hey Czar, how about getting your vids on itunes? You ever think you will go that route? I'm sure you would have plenty of subscribers!

Agreed, somebody sign this man!

Great News Jab Step!!! I had high doubts about this title, but it has been the surprise sports game of the year for me. I hope 2010 will push the envelope in every conceivable direction. But, especially in terms of diversity of the commentary and presentation, and smoother animations, and Free Throw Difficulty for both the CPU and the User.

P.S. In your next patch please include the option to edit classic coaches. Thank you!

Da Czar jokingly mentions depth perception adjustments when playing in Ford Field. On the day the game came out I played a game in FF and remember it taking a few seconds for my eyes to adjust after playing several games in normal-sized arenas.

Great video, love to see these...good balanced feedback. I know you speak for a lot of people with your looks at the game. I agree with your comments on using the similar engine will help both games make better improvements over the year, yet still maintain their specific pro and college atmospheres that make each unique.

Nice job, Czar. You bring up some excellent points that have actually made me reconsider my interactive basketball views.... you're right, NCAA's got a lot of potential. Love the comparision between MSG in NBA vs. NCAA.
