One more week....

I am shocked. I really thought this game was not going to come out.

Yeah, me too....but if you read the write ups on some of the gaming sites, they've supposedly fixed some of the problems from the earlier Xbox release.

I don't know if I will buy this, but if true, I'm glad they not only ported it to Xbox360, but also bothered to fix some of the problems.

If only EA took such an approach. If they in fact delayed to fix problems, then I commend Sega for their professionalism, as they surely would've made perhaps a greater profit by releasing a simple port of the game. Thank you Sega for valuing customers.

Amen...

I tell you, I've been playing the 2KSports titles for a couple of years now, and in my opinion, they listen to their fan base more than EA. I truly think EA is getting very complacent, which in business, can be very costly.

Unless they have an exclusive right to the NFL and all NCAA sports...

So if the release date is tomorrow, EB should have it by Tuesday?

Great timing with Spring Break being next week.

This game will probably never make it into my collection.

GWAR also comes out on the 7th and Oblivion will be out long before I tire of GWAR and COD2 so it is a little too late for my collection at this point.

I would have loved it a month ago though.

[J Hall]

I wonder if next year's game will be out this late? or will they rush out a game for the start of next year with an updated roster....hmmmm

Yeah, the timing does suck for it. My local EB has a trade in 2 360 games get one free deal right now, so I can get College Hoops and Ghost Recon for $60 by returning Perfect Dark and Quake 4.

If you haven't tried it, NHL 2k6 is a great fun game.

I understand, but really only play sports games myself, so this one is the best I can do before April 10 and the 2K Sports MLB game. I'll be playing this one for at least a month, and then maybe on and off until NCAA 07 comes out. Then, like every year, I'll play NCAA exclusively (If it's good enough) until November and the next College Hoops comes out.

If this game is anything like 2k6 on PS2 I'm jealous I can't play this newer one. I LOOOVE this game! Take away the bigger than real life recruits and this game is damn near everything you could hope for in a b-ball game. I've been playing it consistently for the last couple months and 3 games deep into my 5th season (playing every game). Fun stuff

It'll be ready by whenever the Bball games usually come out. The game coming out this late was def. not planned. I'd be shocked if it wasn't out and ready to go by November...

Just recieved an automated call from gamestop saying they will have it tomorrow afternoon. Cant wait!

Problem is, I have 3 major tests in the next three days before Spring break, so I wont pick it up until thursday afternoon when I am done with school. Or else I would just play the game and not study. And I have enough distractions as it is.

I plan on playing the game pretty much my whole spring break next week however, when I am not umpiring or coaching.

So has anyone gotten the game yet?
