I heard there's a feature to throw players under the bus. However, you can only unlock this feature after you're pre-reason ranked 4th in the nation and fail to make the tournament.

Before I saw that, I was getting ready to be angry at the media's bias toward UNC.

BTW, game also comes with fans that you can selectively kick out of the game.

I heard there are unlockable bonuses if you can get more conference wins than the number of McD's All-Americans on your roster.;)

That literally made me LOL. fdd - awesome follow up.

The RP-rating makes total sense, too. You don't know if you're going to get the authentic version or the "dadgummit" version.

What really seperates this game from EA's NCAA game is the ability to act as coach during press conferences. For every question asked, you get the following options:

a) It's those dagnammit new Nike shoes!
b) How can it get any worse, guys? I mean how can it get any worse?
c) He's on a diet to gain weight
d) It was Dexter Strickland's fault

I love 3rd person shooters.

Worse Than Haiti Level is tough.

X and O buttons don't work very well on this game, but the recruiting feature is superb.

53rd practice level has a bug.

In 3D, Larry Drew's passes look like they're coming right at you.

You can personalize the level of roy's fake tan.

I just read if you key in a special code, you get a special retro setting that allows you to play in Carmichael Stadium because the Smith Center is being "renovated".

No, don't worry. The Dayton coach was actually offered the cover first, but he turned it down because he felt it was beneath him.

You can also taunt the other team, play as Marcus Ginyard he's the best at it. Unfortunately most of the time you only get to use it before the actual games. You don't score good for using it after you lose.

I actually got that in an email last week and posted it on my facebook page asking if everyone had pre-ordered their copy yet.:D
I love taunting my carowhina fan friends on facebook. Last week I posted a pic of the new championship banner for them to have to look at! Love it!

There's also the feature that allows you to drive TarHole team bus to the games. For away games you have to dodge cars from other teams and you get bonus points if you spot 'Ol Roy holding a player and you swerve close enough for him to throw the player under the bus. The difficulty level for getting to the game increases dramatically when in Clemson.

sad part is, i'd love to any unc player/coach/alum on a college basketball game this or any year. It's not that i like them, it's because there will be no video game companies releasing a college game this year. :(

I sent the Roy pic to my cube mate who is a State Grad. He said he's been getting this one all week from UNC fans.

Worst feature of the game: When you've advanced through every level, the best you can ever get is 2nd.

It's hit soundtrack goes old school with awesome songs like:

"I'm a Loser" by the Beatles
"Shame" by the Smashing Pumpkins
"Creep" by Radiohead (with the key lyric, "I wish I was special")
"Nobody's Perfect" by Madonna
"I hung my head" by Johnny Cash

and, the key hit featuring the cover athlete...

"Vertigo" by U2

I am not sure what is funnier, the image itself or Airowe's brilliant comments quoted above. "Worse Than Haiti Level" -- man, that is just awesome!

Yes, I immediately imagined you having to play with a team full of guys with sprained ankles in a Category 5 storm while Roy is somehow on the sidelines getting a massage, so there's no game management and no subs. The other team seems unaffected by the storm and has 27 fastbreak dunks in a row...

I read in a review that the time-out feature was removed in this game to make it more of a real-life simulation. Also, you get a banner to hang in the rafters in season mode just for creating a team.

If you want a real challenge, try switching from "normal coaching mode" to "Roy Williams coaching mode." When in Roy-mode, you are required to play Henson on the perimeter all game. Whew, it makes the game really hard!

A new TV Show has been signed for the Fall Season. It's rumored to run from the middle of November to early March. Here is a pre-order poster for Chappa Heeya Shore:

You know the t-shirt we all have that says "You call it obsession...we call it Duke basketball".

Now I know where they came up with that phrase.
