NCAA Football 09 Demo Available: Discuss Here

Adam, u and the others must consider putting in the team entrances and some game ending celebrations. The game is seriously missing presentation. I would bet the sells would increase by at least 25 percent compared to whatever it will be with '09. Casual gamers have seen the '09 clips and said, "this is '08." There is nothing that really jumps out with '09 unless u r a hardcore gamer (such as me). U put in team entrances, maybe a solid halftime show, and at least 2 game endings (national championship) celebrations and this board (especially casual gamers that passed the ebgame shops) would be going crazy to when they release 2010. And if u guy(s) decide to throw in new qb throwing animations (rivers, manning, etc) as well, Ncaa 2004 will not be the best anymore. lol

I had the same bug last night...extremely frustrating.

How hard can it be to put in? NFL 2k5 wasn't made by aliens, they were human beings, just like the EA staff. It didn't take them four years of "Oh, maybe next year." This EA monopoly is the worst thing to every happen to football games, since they can now put out a sub-par, half-assed game and not fear low sales. It's absolutely pathetic. Thanks, EA.

Within a month it will have already taken over all the missile systems in the world and destroyed humanity. We don't want that to happen, do we?

too much work? madden has an entrance where announcers describe some of the key players of the team in the beginning.Don't think its that hard to just make a specific college team run out of a tunnel while the team's name is being said.

Before going off on a complete rant, I suggest reading thru the Q & A thread and you'll get the answer as to why entrances aren't in the game.
