"What's that going for?" I asked the clerk. I popped in to get EA Sports UFC a couple weeks ago and noticed a row of NCAA Football 14 - last year's game, despite the number in the title - sitting on the shelf. to trade in some old discs and maybe pick up a new one. With over 300 teams included and a gluttony of arenas, players, and features such as on-the-fly playcalls, this offered more depth than most other basketball games that came out at the same time.Once every month or so I make a run to the GameStop in North Wilkesboro, N.C. The Open Legacy version allows for the player to choose any school they want and begin building towards their own future stardom.Īnother interesting feature was the ability to track and recruit students from high school, as well as junior college. The Legacy Mode was seen as the major feature, allowing players to start out at a low-ranked basketball school and work towards becoming a national starlet.
The game was also noted for having a diverse soundtrack, deep editing features, and a range of useful modes. The player likenesses were well-received at the time, too, seen as fair representations of the ability of the players who played at that point. Given the differences in how basketball is played at college and NBA level, the game done a fine job of trying to mimic those changes.
While College Hoops played mostly like the NBA 2K series of the era, it did have its own style. The game offered a realistic, fast-paced approach to college basketball and looked to include as many player likenesses and licenses as it could. Just about every school included in the Division I NCAA tournament was included, including new additions at the time such as the Florida Gulf Coast.
