The 2k College Basketball games right before it ended were some of the best sports video games ever made. Endless hours for me in college

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I bought NCAA last year and played for about a month. I played the hell out of the original series, but I have no desire to play it again. The basketball game I have even less desire to play. Give me an NCAA baseball game and I'm on board though.

Can I ask why this is the case?

On the other hand, I had about 600 hours in CFB 25

And now the resultant NIL has ruined the sport.


The NCAA has 99 problems.

Juju Watkins doing an insurance commercial isn't one of them.

The GOAT. I played this a bunch as a kid. Just now remembering the classic logos and that Clemson's paw was purple for some reason.

ETA: And just looking at the Wiki page, stuff I of course long forgot as a kid - it included teams from 5 conferences (including the Big 8 and the SWC), but nothing from the PAC-10 and Big 10. Not sure what that's about.

It was great but not the best. College hoops 2k8 was the GOAT.

That game had a glitch where you could drill 40 foot pull up threes if you found the right spot.

Maybe not. I don't give a damn if the NCAA exists or not.

But Juju going to another program that offers him a bigger payout is a bit of one

Juju sitting out a season because he was unhappy with his NIL payout or NIL contract. . .that is a problem

Love em or hate em, what happened with Iamaleavin' was gross and diminished the sport.
