Coach K College Basketball
Review by FMcRae
"The least appreciated sports game of all time!"
Coach K college basketball is a work of pure genius. The simple path of gameplay gives the participant a taste of true college basketball action. The game functions wonderfully on several levels, not the least of which is the nostalgic value it now holds. This game is a must play for any serious college basketball fan. The ability to use teams consisting of college stars, such as Damon Stoudamire, Felipe Lopez, Tim Duncan, and Bryant Reeves creates an excitement unmatched by any current game. The game also shines as the play itself is simple, yet can be manipulated into an art form. Using certain shots and ball angles the game can be transformed into a critical work of intellectual duel. The fast paced action of Coach K embodies the speed and pace of a real college basketball game. The sole reason I do not give Coack K a 10 is it has one deterministic flaw, which whn exploited ruins the character of the gameplay, but that is for you to find.
I have played too many sports games to count in my video lifetime, but Coach K remains my personal favorite. Unfortunately not many individuals have been exposed to this masterpiece.
