Create A Chant lets you design your own college chant for use in the game. The Play Designer lets the strategically minded craft and implement plays of their own. Other new features round out what makes College Hoops 2K8 such a great game. Most of the suggestions seem like sound advice too, which gives players with low coaching acumen some good advice during the halftime break. The cool addition, however, is the notes that have been written about the current game, which will suggest taking players out, crashing the boards, double teaming opponents anything that the virtual coach deems fit. During halftime, a menu in the form of a notepad, complete with scribbled menu options appears, allowing you to adjust your defensive matchups and pressure and make adjustments to the game plan. My advice - rent it, try it, and then decide whether to buy it or chuck it into the nearest den of ravenous man eating pit bulls and watch it get ripped to shreds.Coaching Adjustments is a new feature that adds that college atmosphere to the game. And the fact that there are about 360 teams to use, all with their own courts, mascots, and for some schools - cheers music, makes this game worth trying out. The career legacy mode alone is a great feature. Sure you will have headaches cause by sure confusion at the amazing inability for your players to perform sometimes, but come on.what sports game isn't complete without yelling at your players and warning them they will get cut (like it matters to them anyway.but it does make you feel better). Why they say my center isn't supposed to take an open lay-up is beyond me.Īll in all, this game is fun. As usual, commentating gets old, annoying, and of course sometimes doesn't make sense. It features great band (think college band section) style of music, as well as the typical rap that is customary in any sports game. How you go about doing things is pretty simple, yet very fun. Or, if you catch the eye of a power conference team, perhaps you will be offered a job to coach a major contender. If you play the career legacy mode, you start out as a coach on a lower end team in a weak, hardly cared about conference in which you really wish you weren't stuck in but know that it is realistic nonetheless, and work your way up to the top. The one thing about this game that I think it nails (for the most part) is career mode. Of course, when it comes to just you, the gameplay is set up well enough to give you plenty of moves and options. Of course, the computer players (not on your team) are going to move more and do things that typical players would try to do, leaving you with the inevitable choice of relying on you and only you to make things happen. The gameplay itself is good, although can be a bit annoying at times when you have an open lay-up with your 6'10'' center and it rolls off the rim as if he is a helpless child learning how to play the game for the first time. There are a few minor glitches in player movement, but they are things you will wind up forgiving due to the fact that all sports games feature some glitches in that department. The game is solid in the graphics department, with just good enough character models so you aren't disgusted, but you are not going to recognize your star player from across the room. From beginning to end, this game feature those same concepts.
Whether it is molding a team of your liking and taking it to the top, or the easy to learn yet hard to master gameplay that most sports games feature. By LegionOfDeer | Review Date: JThere is something about sports games which have a certain appeal.
