It's the same as the last game which isn't a bad thing if you like the last game but it's definitely not worth the expensive price tag. It should be $20 max. I'll still recommend because it's solid but you can definitely live without this game feels like a cash grab11 found this helpful
GREAT gem! One of the BEST basketball simulations I've EVER played!! I do NOT think it's the same as 2025, the UI is MUCH improved and there's a lot of little details that are very nice indeed, and are new to the '26 vers! Wish this would catch on more with say, fans of like the old-school March Madness gemz, or College Hoops 2K series, as the simulation aspect of this gem CANNOT be beat!! It's very, very accurate, with lots of great advanced stats and stuff to tinker with, things to do and plenty of stats to keep on top of. Lots of strategy involved and just a lovely experience for a longtime college hoops fan. TOP SHELF stuff here, first class!! Thanks dev for the hard work year after year! <32 found this helpful
I will say, I have not played any other entry in the series. I think the other reviews talk about that in depth so if you have, read those. For first time players and fans of college basketball, I could not recommend this game more. There are some issues (the menus are hard to access and the game takes ages to load during the offseason) but this is such a fun game. It scratches the same itch as other sport sim games, like Football Manager. I do wish that there was an option to choose how much NIL we can spend on players (as opposed to the current options of Low, Average, and High offers). However, I do still highly recommend.2 found this helpful
Awesome game, NIL made it so much better. Logos and stuff from the forum always help the game feel amazing. I might just be dumb but I can't get the logos working on the new court display only the old one In terms of the game Negative Freshman even with the updates are probably still too good On brutal recurting in universe mode, was able to get one of the best 10 players in the portal to Presbyterian (20 team prestige) but even the standard of player I can pick up with them seems too high overall, compared to another team I have in the game, team prestige around 50 Would love a way to change the tournament size to the new modal recently introduced by the NCAA (I know thats probably hard for the developer to code on the fly) Defensive pressing/trapping etc, I've had teams stacked with good defender, elite defenders, high ath, no matter what I can't get them to be elite defensively as they would be just in a simple MTM with no pressing Having 4 teams at various levels, Power 5, High, Mid, Low majors I like trying to platy different styles but almost every time i end up just M2M D being the best to win and motion offense unless I've got a stretch 5, within this part I wish t…1 found this helpful
