Fast Break College Basketball is also a consideration.

yeah i played that demo, but i though tdcd was better...my question is, will tdcb be worth it since it seems .400 is done?

I own all of the three games in question and I like FBCB the best, with TCY being a relatively close second.

I own all three, and of the three, Tournament Dreams is a very, very fine game.

The statistics setup is very good, and unlike FOF: TCY, recruiting isn't 90% of the game.

The games can be simmed, or played. All in all, a very good game.

Agreed, the recruiting process in TCY is very long and kind of drawn out.

No doubt, which is why I if I ever play the game it is only to generate draft classes for FOF. I'd like a career college football game w/ an improved recruiting process.

Fast Break College Basketball over Tournament dreams for sure. FBCB has a much better sim engine, editable conferences etc (ready for the incoming years realignement), tons of custom options etc. The only thing where Tournament dreams could be better than FBCB is on the graphics but i doubt a text simmer would preffer graphics over the best sim engine. Also the FBCB developer keeps releasing free patches/upgrades for free after a year while Tournament Dreams hasn't been updated for a long time and won't be updated ever. I currently play in an online FBCB league and i can tell you it's my favorite text sim right now.
Here is the link for the online league if you want to take a look or even join us:
