I'm also interested to hear which one is better also since I may be purchasing one of these soon. CAD was going to be my next sim, but I will wait for the .400 studious version now.

Your best bet is to try out the demos for both games. That will give you a good feel for how each of the games work.

Fast Break all the way.
Easy to run, not a lot of micromanagement.

Try both demos for yourself

Like I said, it really is best to try both demos. Both games have their strengths so it really is a matter of personal opinion. I am obviously biased in that I prefer the game that I wrote but there are things that I like about Jumpshot as well.

I don't own Jumpshot so I can't comment much on it but I can say that Fastbreak is an excellent game and keeps on getting better with updates given almost weekly!

Thanks heavyreign!

Question for Fastbreak users:

Does you have the ability for customizable league sizes and cities as in OOTP? From my checking, It looks like it doesn't.

You are correct. Right now the game does not offer these things.

Not that it matters to you, probably, but this is the only thing keeping me from buying the game.

Once you add that level of customization you will have at least one (and probably many more) customers.

Actually, it does matter to me. I like hearing what people think would help the game improve. Many of the suggestions I receive are things that I might not have thought about on my own.

Ok, so I stand corrected

Mr Illini, a fellow FOBL Owner, has lots of good things to say about the game and about you. I am looking forward to taking the game for a test drive in the near future...

Thanks for being a responsive developer...

Guys:

I would like to throw another great basketball game into this discussion.....PC Action Basketball by Dave Koch. This is a tremendous statistically accurate game with all kinds of coaching options, live Internet play and tons of options. It does not have a career mode, which I know a lot of you like, but if you want to coach an NBA team and play vs others on the net, this is the game for you!
