Thanx in advance . Can't wait for later this week.

Please check to see if the CPU QB AI has improved and the CPU thrown INTs have been toned down to realistic standards.

Also, check to see that the spread option run plays work appropriately this year. The speed option was too easy to break for long runs last year and some of the slot option plays were almost an automatic 20 yard gain if you pitched to the WR.

Thanks for helping us get our NCAA info fix Pasta.

pasta please take notice of one thing that i thought they got absolutely right. the lighitn through the day and night and rain games from last year. see if it's been improved or absolutely hacked.

Also check grass textures and snow and rain effects...

I'm getting the Wii version for gameplay and next gen ONLY IF it has next gen graphics...

So more hype? If you're only relaying info and not giving your opinion, how will this be any different from an EA advertisement?

I would think you would want the information? I know things like how home field advantage works, how online dynasty works, are things that intrigue me. Correct me if I'm wrong there. I'm not saying that I won't have opinion mixed in too, its just that there has to be some perspective on where the game is at this point. If I don't like something I'll certainly mention it but more in hopes of it being addressed prior to release (and that I had made a point of it) than making a final judgment.

I'd like to know how many players can join a single online dynasty. I'm hoping for 12 (an entire conference) but preparing for less than that.

Very good question

edit: I think online dynasty is really the biggest thing to get info about. Online dynasty will sell a lot of people on this game. Hell if they have the turnover issue again I'll still buy it if online dynasty is done right.

While obviously I won't be able to play it I'll definitely dig into the menus and options which should tell a lot about it.
