NCAA Football 09 Demo Available: Discuss Here

[allBthere]

i couldn't really tell a diff between last years. I don't think it's very good and deleted the demo. to each his own, but if you told me that's what a fooball game would look and play like in 2008 back in 2004 I would have though it was a joke.

it just feels 'cheap' to me.

BTW...

I have read about quick snapping by the CPU and the pass rush problem but to be honest...I've gotten a decent amount of pressure...both on LSU's QB and from the LSU pass rush. As long as the sliders are effective, I really dont think either of these "huge problems" will be much of an issue. JMHO

Rent 08, play one game, LSU at OSU. Then download the demo again, play it, then tell me its the same as 08. If you still honestly believe that then I guess this game really isn't for you.

they do the same thing in NCAA, I want to actually see the players on the field warming before the game b/c I realize this would be less taxing then getting all the custom entrances

hehe, go try to get through a game of 2ks college product, I dare ya.

Are the EA guys taking the feedback from the demo and fixing the bugs before the final version?

The CPU seems to get off some pretty miraculous passes when you blitz and finds a receiver more times than not. I blitzed a safety and CB on the same side to see what happens and for some reason the WR does a silly pirouette catching the ball when there isn't a defender within 20 yards of him. Wish they could figure out how to make WRs catch balls in full stride and just keep going instead of always having WRs making spinning and jumping catches when not necessary.

nope.

The demo is from a build that has already been improved upon. The demo is a build from an early community day event.
