I'm still waiting for proof of the so called enhancements

my favorite quote from the article that basically states why I wont be purchasing

Quote:

Double team pass blocking remains absent, as offensive linemen who are not engaged still stand in place, twitching and turning around looking confused. This is inexcusable for a football franchise entering its seventh season on the Xbox 360/Playstation 3.

very good article thanks for posting

Pretty good breakdown. The improvements sounds good on paper, but there's a cautious optimism that surrounds anything EA does nowadays.

It seems like Jayson and I harbor the same attitude towards this series. It's great that they're trying, but it's too little, too late at this point.

Not impressed. It's 2012 and this series still has synchronized running. With all the advanced technology at EA Sport's disposal, we get a shinier repackaged NCAA 12 from NCAA 13.

That's my opinion. I don't see an improvement, but I have not played this game, yet. So a true gameplay review will have to wait.

Loving it. It directly addressed the issues I had with NCAA 12 and kept '12 from being a worthy follow up to NCAA 11.

Good article. Agreed with pretty much everything I read. Also love how the improvements and lack of a improvements were made more than aware.

Won't matter if the game is broken after patch 1. But the improvements sound promising, hopefully ncaa regroups and gives us a good product after last years debacle.

Making it to where you can't throw a ball to a receiver until "he reaches a point in the route where he expects the ball or is looking at the QB" is a great addition to the game as well.

Man. That feature is really tripping people up. You can throw the ball to him. He simply won't try to catch it unless the user takes over.
