These are the kind of things that I am looking for. I can't stand people asking is such n such #4, can you check such n such rating, etc...

I understand that people are still not sure if they are picking this up but, it's really annoying to search each and every post to see if someone is asking a stupid question or if someone that has the game is giving their thoughts.

is it simulation or arcadey? i don't really care about "fun" - i play sports games because they play (statistically) realistic. thanks!

well i just finished my first game...

I played 10 min halfs, Difficulty on All American, and I played as Syracuse vs Gtown at the Carrier dome. Here are some impressions:

The Bad
-Seemed to easy, i won 47-25, maybe the hardest difficulty will be a little more realistic.
-Not enough fouls, i think Syracuse and Gtown combined with about 4 fouls all together.
- My FG% was like 79%- WAY WAY WAY to high
- Generic looking coaches on the sideline( hopefully this can be edited)
- Warm up the bus chant is headache inducing

The Good
- I love the flow of the game, This is as close of to real College BBall as it gets
- Fast Breaks are done beautifully, they dont happen all the time but they are not all that rare
- I love the Tempo Gimmick, it works really well
- Crowds sound awesome
- sloppy passes will get picked off
- Defense is actually fun to play( Syracuse runs a beautiful 2-3 zone!)
- The Carrier dome looks great ( Except the Carrier dome got rid of the blue divider)
- Player models look great
- player animations look great


Overall i think this has the potential to be a very good game once the sliders come out and hopefully a patch to fix some of the little problems ( please EA, tone down the bus Chant!). Hopefully the fouls will be able to be fixed with sliders but overall i am impressed with this...
