whens the 360 patch coming out?
This game is playing awesome now, I didnt really have a problem with anything prior to the patch being released meaning none of the issues were game killers for me. However now postpatch this game is 100x better.
i like that they fixed the blocks, that was a killer for me
Yep, this patch turns this in to a whole other game. What was merely a great game before has now become the best basketball game I’ve ever played.
It’s unfortunate that this will be the last CH title, but I really think this release will keep me going for the next couple of years, if not more.
Yeah!! This looks great. The game was amazing before, now I can’t wait to play it. Pasta- do we have a general timeframe of when the 360 patch drops?
patch for the 360 was put out this morning.
Excellent news. Thanks Pasta!!
Where do I need to go to get the patch?
