Introduction:
College Hoops 2K6 is one of the many sports games for the Xbox 360 created by 2K games. In this game, you can play as many different college basketball teams from all over the United States. There are only five achievements in this game, and each one of them is rather simple to earn. This game is perfect to play if you feel like you need a quick completion as it will definitely not take you any longer than two hours to earn every achievement. It is possible to earn all of the achievements during a single game. Note that all achievements unlock at the end of a game, so you will need to finish it in order for obtain the achievements.
For those who are not familiar with basketball terminology, here is a quick reference of definitions from the guide that can be looked at to understand the game and the achievement descriptions:
- 3-Pointer – This is a shot that is made behind the arc that goes around the basketball court. Making this shot will score you three points, hence the name 3-Pointer.
- Block – A block is when you deflect the ball while someone on the opposite team is trying to make a shot.
- Foul Shot – This is a shot that you will take at the foul line if someone fouls you while you are trying to shoot)
- Points – Different shots are worth different amounts of points. A foul shot is worth one point, a 3-Pointer is worth three points, and any other type of shot is worth two points.
- Shot – This is where you attempt to get the basketball in the basket.
- Steal – A steal is when you take the ball from someone on the other team while they have possession of the ball.
- Rebounds – A rebound is where you catch the ball when someone shoots the ball and misses the basket. You can catch the ball in the air, off the backboard, or off the rim of the basket. There are two different types of rebounds: Offensive Rebounds and Defensive Rebounds. Offensive Rebounds occur when one of your teammates misses the shot, and Defensive Rebounds happen when the opposing team misses the shot.
Step 1: Create a Character
First, you will want to create a character with good stats. Choose 7’6” as his height, and when prompted, make every single stat at 99. This will max out all of his stats, which will make some of the achievements much easier for you to obtain. It does not matter which team the character is on as long as you select the same team when you go to play the game.
Step 2: Play a Game
Choose quick game and choose to play on the same team as the character that you just created. If you have a second controller a available, assign that controller to be the opposing team. I also recommend setting the difficulty to Walk-On difficulty to make it even easier. When the game actually starts, you will want to pause and go to the Options menu. Find the sliders, and then increase the sliders for your team to 100 for 3-pointers, steals, blocks, and rebounds. Then, go to the opponent’s sliders and move them all to 0.
Now, it is time to actually play the game. Start working on the achievements in any order you would like. If you want to know if you have met the requirements for an achievement, you can pause the game at any time and check the stats for your team and players. When you meet the requirements for an achievement, stop working on that particular task and move on to the next one. After the game ends, every achievement that you have fulfilled the requirements for will unlock.
Step 3: Mop-Up:
If you did not earn all of the achievements during the previous game, start another games and work on the achievements that you do not have unlocked yet. Keep checking your progress towards the requirements as you play, and make sure that you finish it so the achievements unlock for you.
Conclusion:
College Hoops 2K6 is an easy game that will not take you long to get all of the achievements for; and the created character and the sliders will make it even easier! Hopefully this guide is helpful to you! Enjoy your quick 1000!
