So, whenever I start playing a game that I\'m going to review for the website, I\'m going to make it a point to post a quick blog entry to let everyone know what the initial feeling is.

In this installment, I will go over the first thoughts on College Hoops 2K8.


The Good

- The interface is the same as most of 2K8\'s menu systems. It\'s simple to navigate through things, which is nice.

- Gameplay is very smooth. Defense is a bitch, but that gives it a nice challenge.

- Arenas look very good.

- The Sunday Selection Show is fantastic to watch. I was almost as excited to watch it as I get on the actual Selection Sunday.

- Create-a-player is just as deep as other 2K8 games.

- Play creator is a wonderful addition, although it\'s tough to master.

The Not So Good

- Player faces are terrible....and I do mean TERRIBLE

- Greg Gumbel looks like a robot. Same with Clark Kellogg.

- Announcing is repetitive.

- Running a play is a bitch.

- Free throw shooting.....



Check back in about a week for the full review.
