The cover features Greg Oden, formerly of the Ohio State Buckeyes.
Almost every school competing in Division I NCAA college basketball at the time was included in 2K8, including recent additions South Carolina-Upstate, Cal State-Bakersfield and Florida Gulf Coast.
Not included were Presbyterian College and North Carolina Central, D-1 independents.
Also, Centenary College of the Summit League was unlicensed and instead named UL-Calcutta.
The game also featured the ability to change and modify rosters and share them online via the newly introduced 2K Share feature.
The real coaches feature was dropped from this game, possibly because the coaches chose not to renew their contracts and all of the coaches are unnamed.
The announcers/commentators featured in the game were Verne Lundquist and Bill Raftery.
The College Hoops series was put on hiatus in 2008 as 2K Sports declined to seek the college license for a 2K9 release.
EA Sports got the contract before 2K did, so EA will continue to make college basketball games.
EA discontinued their college basketball game series in 2010.
It is currently unknown if 2K Sports will continue to make their College Hoops 2K series.
About PlayStation 3
Released in 2006, the PlayStation 3 had a rocky start thanks to its high launch price but became known for its exclusive franchises and Blu-ray drive, which doubled as an early home theater upgrade for many households. PS3 collecting is still relatively young — most titles are inexpensive — but the console's digital PSN storefront closure risk has pushed more collectors toward physical copies specifically to preserve access.
Gamevaro tracks College Hoops 2K8 for PlayStation 3 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding College Hoops 2K8 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS3 release dates back to 2007.
