I used to love this game and would edit the generic Husky players to the real player names/numbers as applicable. We have a PS5 in the mancave that my son and his friends play regularly but I haven't played anything in years. Might have to come out of retirement for this one.
 
This is the best news I’ve heard in a while. I played (and still go back periodically) a ton of CH2K8 back in the day. One of my absolute favorites. While the EA series had better actual gameplay, I much preferred the legacy mode and general interface of 2K. But at this point I’ll gladly take EA, of course. Even if it takes three years, I really hope the game actually happens.
 
bought an old Xbox and 2010 NCAA during the pandemic and still play it when I have time.

I hope you payed them name, image, and likeness compensation. ;)

2K8 dynasty is so good. I still play it every once in a while
 
NCAA Basketball on SNES was my jam in 1992. They even had a guy on the roster with the last name Knight.

Ahh yes. I remember loving this game in the early 90s. I never could have imagined UConn winning the NCAA title, let alone 6, back then. So to compensate I would choose UConn and win the NCAA championship within that game. UConn had it's best player, a combo guard, C. Samson who I always used. He was Chris Smith.

The 3-D perspective of the game was great and revolutionary at the time.

Yes and Knight had Scott Burrell's stats. You can look at the real roster statistics (I think 1991) and map them to the fictitious names the game developers gave them. One big mistake the game made was making the player with Gilad Katz's stats one of the best players on the team. I think I put up over 50 points one game with that player. I played that game for hours and hours
 
I had a NCAA college bball game for the original Playstation where I took 16 seed Grambling State to the championship and UConn always performed well.

In another season With a few seconds left, I threw a pass, dribbled to half court and called time. With 1 second left I hit a buzzer beater 3 from almost half court off the inbounds pass, down by 2 to win it all, that was memorable. It was with UConn.

I doubt I'll have much time to play this whenever it comes out, but College Hoops 2K8 is my favorite game ever. It was ahead of it's time in so many areas. The legacy/dynasty mode is still more impressive than anything out there today.
