  • Summary: Take the reigns of your favorite Division I program and build a modern-day dynasty in Legacy Mode, as you recruit the best crop of young talent throughout the nation. Train your squad to run team-oriented motion offenses, overpower your opponents with high post plays and antagonize teams with aggressive full court presses. You call all the shots, from who's going to redshirt to what kind of zone press your squad runs. Guide your team through an entire season -- tune-up in tough pre-season match-ups in preparation for heated conference play where every game counts. Weekly Top 25 and Rating Percentage Index (R.P.I.) rankings track your progress over the course of the season, including a bubble watch as tourney time draws near. [Sega] Expand

  1. The Legacy mode is incredibly comprehensive and it's something that'll keep players busy for hours on end. [Jan 2003, p.84]
  2. This is the best college basketball game I have ever played and I have played them all. From "Coach K" to "March Madness" to "Final Four", I have never played a college basketball game that was this enjoyable and realistic.

    My favorite basketball game this year.
  4. The AI is horrendous, all the great tweaks in "NBA 2K3" are MIA, and most of the fun is gone, too... People in dorms are going to have to get pretty drunk to get any enjoyment out of this. [Jan 2003, p.96]
