"There was a gap in communication and I have found out that hands-on reports of NCAA 09 are to be embargoed until May 2.

At that time, the Utopia hands-on report will be re-posted, along with updated thoughts from last night's event and interviews.".....cdj

You guys have the number of games wrong. Remember there are 2 teams in every game so you need to divide by 2 to get a near accurate total number of games. The number won't be perfectly accurate because some teams played one or two games against FCS teams.

It'll be interesting if the tone of the review changes next week. Something is up. "A gap in communication?" Pasta Padre and NCAA Strategies have been saying all week they were going to post their impressions after the event. They do, people read it and get disappointed, and then all of the sudden they have to take them down.

Memo to EA Sports - if you made the game your core customers wanted you wouldn't have to worry about negative reviews/comments.

Oh you're right, didn't think about that..

Hopefully that means there tweaking the damn inaccurate amount of int returned for tds. That's the only thing I'll be waiting to see impressions on to decide whether or not it's worth a purchase.

there were also 120 teams last year in FBS. don't forget Western Kentucky, 2007 was their first year in FBS. Even though they had an easy schedule, they were still FBS.

That's some pretty disappointing info about the type of game results with 7 minute quarters on AA. I just wish more than anything like with the Show and even Madden on the EA boards that a producer would come to this board and have a dialog.
