Really? Could you break that down for us so we can see how much dev time it took away from the game?

no new equipment
no new camera angles
no new presentation or team entrances
and a patch improved gameplay

This isn't everything, but you may find it helpful:

"Presentation wise there isn’t all that much new. The bands during pregame appear to have been the main addition. That does absolutely nothing for me except add something new to skip through. There are no team entrances or new style of replays or cut scenes that I came across.

Ultimately if you liked 09’s gameplay you’ll like 10. If you liked 09 but felt there were several issues then you’ll probably be satisfied with what they’ve done for 10. However if you had a strong dislike of 09 I wouldn’t expect that feeling to shift based on the gameplay related changes and additions.

They aren't advertising wide open gameplay this year but there is still a sense of that. Its tough for me to make those judgments based on such a small sample size though."

Officially NCAA 09.5.

no new camera angles - FALSE. There isn't MULTIPLE camera angles, but there is a NEW camera angle.

no new presentation - FALSE again.

patch improved gameplay. Patch? I'm curious how much dev time you think it would take to implement adaptive AI, modify OL/DL, WR/CB interactions, implement branching animations, among NUMEROUS other updates to the gameplay. Just curious why you call this a "patch". Is this how it works?

if (version == "09")
gameplay = "sucks";
else if (version == "10")
gameplay = "better";

So basically one of biggest elements of the game, presentation, has essentially been untouched with the exception of bands...

Spectacular NCAA.
