Nope.

They haven't made one in years.

2k hasn't since College Hoops 2k8 (released in 2007).

EA went one year longer, I believe.

So we haven't had a college basketball game since 2008 or 2009. A travesty.
 
The last 2K college basketball game was an alltimer for me.

I agree. However you will not have the web access code to be able to get updated and rosters. Which sucks.

Why not? I didn't buy it used. You have to buy it when it first comes out to get web access?

On the same note, I picked up two highly rated games which never really raised my interest but are still Triple-A releases during Steam's Summer Sale for $4.99 each: Saints Row the Third and Deus Ex Human Revolution.

I'm sure I won't even install them and they'll just sit around in my games list until I'm bored one day and decide to give them a shot.

Are you still doing your heavy duty gaming on a PC?

Yes.

It is rare, almost never, that I prefer a game on consoles over PC if I have the option.

It's not often you even see the sports games made for PC anymore (or if they are, they are cheap knockoffs), but those ones I'd prefer on console I think.

But just about everything else, I play on PC if I can, and get it for console if I can't. This has mandated that I have a console for games like Uncharted, Red Dead Redemption, and of course when GTA5 comes out in September it will be consoles only for a while.

I owned both PS3 and Xbox360 but moving forward I see less of a reason to own both. PS3 has all the exclusives that you can't get on PC. Most of Xbox's titles all are eventually available on PC.
 
PS I also picked up RAGE and Torchlight 2, each for $4.99 this morning as well.

So I've spent $20 total on RAGE, Torchlight 2, Deux Ex:Human Revolution and Saints Row the Third.

Four games that all retailed for $60 and got great reviews.

Now I just need to see Max Payne 3 for $4.99 and I'll grab that one too. But so far it hasn't dipped below $19.99.

Steam's summer sale is so awesome. You can load up on games that you wanted to play but never wanted to pay full price for, enough to keep you going for a year. For pennies on the dollar. Just Cause 1 was 27 cents yesterday! lol.

I'm like you in that regard. I recently built a new one that was intended for Photoshop and some home movie editing, but I built it with the intent that I would play most of my games on it. I loves me some STEAM. There's another similar source I can't think of the name right now but one of the games I got with my video card came from it.
 
I bro in law brought over his PS3 last night so he could use my internet to download some shit cause his internet was down... He was showing me all the free games he gets with that PS3 subscription... I think I might sign up. Seems like he gets great games for free all the time. I don't know much about it though.

My gaming life right now is consumed with the new Sim City.
 
I'm kinda waiting to play anything new until I get my new Logitech Z523 speakers.

I've been rolling with a pair of Altec Lansing very low end speakers (the kind they package with someone who buys a computer from Dell as a complete set) that I got used on eBay about 10 years ago. They are finally starting to kick off. Time for an upgrade.

These new ones have a subwoofer and everything. I usually have paid very little attention to sound, so I'm excited to hear the difference now that I'm getting these. They reviewed very well.

For not having $300 to spend, I think I did well.
