Coach K was a great game, I played it on the Super Nintendo system. My favorite was ’90 UNLV vs. the other great college teams in history

Definitely a hot post AXG. I have to agree with this being one of the greatest basketball titles ever created. This game spawned a list of titles all of which will go down in history as some of the best and overall groundbreaking titles in sports gaming history. With that being said I’d have to say that my personal fav has to be Coach K. I used to DOMINATE with UCLA, and then when I could choose them I’d just rain 3′s on people with UMass…ahh those were the days…

WOW!!! Took me back I used to play with the 76ers in the East and the Warriors in the West. Tim Hardaway and the “UTEP -Two Step”. Would be up half the night playing.

Is it just me, or was the DreamCast system before it’s time?

Thank you Michelle. You know for me, it all about telling the story differently than anything else you may have read.

Go Lake Show!

yeap I hear you brotha.

Man those were the days.

Remember how fake trajon Langdon was on that game. Or how Arkansas would just destroy teams on that game.

Man that lil PG from arkansas (dilliard) could shoot 3s from NBA range.

IMO that was the best college basketball game.

Origin I wanted to mention Coach K in this piece, but it didn’t work into my flow, however that game was the truth, because you could use the old and current college teams, and break the backboard. I was no joke with UCLA.

What up AXG that was tight man you bringing back memories. I had a sega Genesis too and played this game and Madden too.

Boy those were the days. Lakers vs. Celtics the game and MJ and the bulls had more influence then anything on when it came to basketball.

Man MJ, Bird, and Magic were tight in that game. I remember when that game was only on PCs. Then sega eventually got it to come out on Genesis.

Also AXG remember Jordan vs. Bird……..pretty tight.

Man thats when EA would make great basketball games. Oh well those times are over, now the best basket ball games are NBA 2k by 2k sports.

One last thing AXG remember coach K by EA sports. Man in College we would play tournaments with this game. Boy those were the days. Joe Smith was unstoppable in that game.

AHHHHHHHHH, SEGA GENESIS. I still have that and my old Nintendo and I can remember playing David Robinson’s basketball and the Lakers vs Celtics very vividly. Even know when I may purchase a game, I still have to keep all the rosters updated and I could probably recite who’s on what team at the drop of a dime.
