I have been holding off getting the 2k version to see what EAs game will do for College B-Ball. Plus I already have NBA2k7 so I thought the NCAA version would be about the same thing.

Does anyone have or plan to get March Madness that could give some input on the situation?
 
if you have a 360 and you want college basketball...get college hoops 2k7. the demo for mm07 was choppy and had framerate issues and reviews are saying they havent fixed that. i have ch2k7 and its great, especially with the rosters. i'd stay away from ea's bball games until they can make a game that doesnt have framerate issues...

i cant speak for which one id get for other consoles though...
 
Well the thing is that I played the demo of 2007 and did not really dislike the gameplay. I read that IGN review and it did not exactly give me any insight as to what to do at this point. Plus, I believe that 2k7 is probably identical to the NBA version, so I did not want to own two games that are basically the same.
 
Neither games are very good. College Hoops is way better than March Madness though.
 
College basketball 2k7 and nba 2k7 are two different games. Different pace, different atmosphere, and so on. I used to think the same when i bought 2k6 last year and didnt want to get nba 2k6. But i got nba 2k7 and i love the different pace of both games. I dont think youll be disappointed.
 
OK, hmmm. Now I am really confused. My biggest concern was the "feel" of the college series. I was under the impression that the college version of 2k has the same gameplay feel as its NBA big brother. While that fits nicely for the NBA game, I do not think the fast pace would port well to the college experience.

Charlie: Did you play through a dynasty mode in NCAA2k7 yet? Is it any good?
 
Well, let me reiterate what i was saying.. I dont have college hoops 2k7, i had 2k6, and i now have nba2k7. The game has the same engines, so as far as controls and so on, you will feel right at home like in nba 2k7. The difference is, is that in nba basketball, most of the teams you play will challenge you compared to college hoops, unless you are playing the knicks of course. Most of your non conference games will be a cake walk, unless you are a middle of the road team. If you are a power house you wont be challenged unless you play a team that has the same talent level as you, or in the big dance. I plan on getting c-hoops soon, but i only have time for three games in my house(work, grad school, and fiance takes a ton of my time), and thats gears, sc:da, and nba2k7. So when i finish one of them, im plannin on getting it. I loved college hoops 2k6 and i think that nba2k7 is the best sports game out, so getting ch2k7 is a no brainer.

If you're interested in the feel of the game then College Hoops is the right choice. March Madness doesn't feel like you're playing the game at all. Half the moves that they do are automated and you feel like you have very little control over what's going on. College Hoops games have great atmosphere too.

It always amazes me that a 2 loss team in a junk conference can be so high in the rankings...

I agree with you about NBA2k7 for sure. I think I will pick up NCAA2k7 as well. Hey, do you play online? My name is Ingonuts on Live, we should play sometime.
 
If i do, ill add it this weekend, i have class tonite (networking plus), and a test in that class, and all of this after i get off of work. You see my tag in my sig. Just add me. I play with the heat. Hope you can stop wade. And its messed up that they took shaq out of the line-up.
 
Well that should make for an interesting match up as I play with the D BABY! Too bad I do not have Wallace anymore, but no matter, we can give it a go!
 
You guys were right on about College Hoops 2k7, it is badass!

Started a Legacy career with Army, man is it tough only having access to a few teams when in legacy mode.
 
See, told you so.. I saw you online this weekend, but i was just playing my music while i was cleanin up the house. Im gonna try to get the game within the next month, im done with gears, so i could trade it in. SO, i'll see, also im waiting for mlb2k7 also, that game looks sweet as hell.
