So last night I did some recruiting research to see both the caliber of player available, and also what players are likely to be toward the end of their playing career.

I took 134 players from Pac-10 teams and followed them from their freshman season until they graduated four or five years later (keep in mind I'm only including players who played out their eligibility - i removed about 10 players who either transfered, were cut or went pro).

There were some interesting ... Read More

Each year, the launch of NCAA Football signals the official start of the 2010 sports gaming season – with major titles released every few weeks from now through late October.

(All apologies to Tiger Woods – but your game used to launch in late August).

With this in mind, here are five big questions about the crop of summer and fall releases.

1 – Can NBA Live, NHL 2k and PES narrow the gap and challenge their rivals?

In each case above, ... Read More

It's been a few weeks, but look for this blog to once again become active with thoughts, information and ideas mostly aimed at the big three football titles: FIFA, Madden and NCAA.

In fact I should have a return column up sometime in the next couple of days taking a look at the 2010 crop of games and asking some questions.

Until there, some random thoughts to fill the remaining hour I have at work before going home and taking part in a little 1 vs. 100 action on Xbox ... Read More

Last week, I had a chance to sit down with EA Sports and view the current build of NCAA Football 10. I also got a walkthrough of some of the new aspects of the game.

Based upon the walkthrough, it seems like customization is the name of the game with NCAA Football 10. Sure, the developers also want to fix some of the issues NCAA 09 had and improve the game on the field, but the theme of customization ... Read More

Operation Sports recently got a chance to sit down and talk with some of the newly announced NCAA cover athletes about the NFL Draft, video games and what it is like to see their likenesses on the cover of a video game.

Operation Sports: What is like - not only having seen yourself in a video game - but also to now be one of a handful of athletes to grace the cover of a video game?

Michael Crabtree, WR, Texas Tech: It’s amazing. I’m just having so much fun here in New ... Read More

It certainly is refreshing to see EA Sports embracing the online franchise and dynasty, especially considering this is a company that removed online franchises from Madden on the PC a few years back because “nobody played it.”

So in the interest of helping EA deliver online franchises people will love, here are some tips from the point of view of a long time Madden commissioner and NCAA Online Dynasty aficionado.

1 – Make sure everything works.

It goes ... Read More

One of the biggest downsides of EA Sports World is only being able to host and embed five videos at a time. After you cycle through those videos, you can't view older videos you've uploaded.

Or can you?

If you have web space some place you can download your video off of EA Sports World and still use the EA Sports video player to embed the video.

Here is the code for embeding a video from EA Sports World ... Link.

Step one is to copy and ... Read More
