NCAA Football 09 Demo Available: Discuss Here

[Hassan Darkside]

I just saw a missed pitch, I dunno if it was a glitch or just an error. I don't think it was an error though. I called a sweep and the QB pitched the ball behind the RB.

Couple questions for either OMT or anyone who has answers. 1) is the ability to branch and break tackles like Madden (where you can stiff arm or spin out of a tackle) in NCAA?

I believe Ian said in the Madden forum that NCAA will not have this "breakaway" feature, only Madden will.

360 version is again abetter playing better looking game than the ps3 version. on the demo as a whole? the fact that they took out the progressive/dynamic lighting that was so BEAUTIFUL last year for this UGLY pastel type of effect is just aweful. Sorry but why pay for a game that plays a BIT better but looks so much worse than last year? and to top that plays NOT that well on Ps3 for us ps3 chosen users?

kinda dissapionted wheras last year i was THRILLED....

Tomba, you really can't judge the game yet since this is just a demo. Plus its playing at Varsity. Last years game was a disaster in my opinion, and I already like the demo better.

Couple questions for either OMT or anyone who has answers. 1) is the ability to branch and break tackles like Madden (where you can stiff arm or spin out of a tackle) in NCAA? 2) Any word on the QB lining up behind center and sliding over to left or right? 3) game speed, is the speed of the demo close to final build? 4) is everyone as pumped as i am? Im enjoying the demo, although i refuse to play as UF. Glad i dont play as OSU, LSU, UF or Texas or id be sick of them after all the replay the demo is getting! Going back for more, keep the feedback coming (and thanks OMT for the answers)

Can those of us without Xbox Live Gold get the demo yet? If not, when can we. I want to compare both demos to decide whether to get the PS3 or 360 versions. If they are close, I will get the PS3 version this year since DKrause is updating rosters on it, and since I am sick of Microsoft. I am on my 3rd 360 for God's sake

I heard it should be up Thursday morning for Silver members...so hopefully it goes through. I've been fortunate enuff to still be on my first Xbox...maybe the first run they had were constructed a little better...and sometimes i play for hours on ends without a problem.
