So now you jump from animations to Dynasty...wtf is the world coming too.

I swear some people are just continuing to seek something wrong with this game.

Game is good enough said! And yes NCAA Basketball was a very good game, and I didn't mind Dynasty mode at all, played through 4 seasons, before I stopped. To each of their own of what they expect to come from it. But last year, NCAA Basketball 09 was the best basketball that year. Out of all titles released, it was my favorite of the 4.

Really? I haven't read but the few post he posted here. Didn't know that...

This is the only College Basketball game we have now, and it just seems, so many people want it to fail, with so many post about, not buying if a feature isn't there and things like that.

And now we are talking about framerates...lol to the gentlemen above. Name 1 game other than BioShock that didn't have frame rate issues...

I'm confused because it seems like your saying if you want SIM style play you'll play Live 10 and if you want to just pick up and have fun style play you go with NCAA 10. I didn't realize both versions couldn't be a SIM style......and to be honest that word SIM is kinda overated in Live 10 to be honest with you.

I'm goofy sometimes

I'll put it best this way...

This game had one focus and one focus only and for me it seems to makes sense.

ONLY way to really try and make a good realistic college game is to study the the college teams coaches style. they tackled that last year. this year they tackled the presentation aspect which we all felt was lacking. Its something we complained about in NCAA football 10 that will no doubt be addressed the way NCAA basketball did with CBS. i have a feeling thats what will really be different about NCAA football next year the way it is this year for NCAA basketball.

The nba live engine is used but only in spirit because it is more toned down due to no real superstars.

What i see with NCAA Basketball is the crowd the atmosphere now. thats an excitement factor that was missing and to be honest hard to do within a dev cycle of only about 5 months realistically.

can we get ratings?

They need a manual backdown button big time. I never seem to be able to have my bigs backdown guys long enough. Also, I miss the quick plays on the thumb pad. The quick strategy seems confusing when you're in the flow of the game. 1 thing I did notice is that Carolina doesn't seem to push the ball enough, unless you're playing them. I also didn't like the fast break logic, in that when I make a steal with UNC's Larry Drew, I never seemed to be able to break out for an open layup. Duke always had two guys back.

Also maybe its me, but trying to figure out when the best time to shoot is getting to me. I have an X-BOX controller, so maybe its getting used to the buttons (I've played on the PS3 in the past, but never was a fan of their controller).

Lastly is the rebounding. I always have my player controlled player crash the boards, but sometimes my bigs didn't even jump. I know there is a strategy that you can select called crash the boards, but I've seen enough UNC games to know that their bigs are supposed to go after the ball after a miss on offense and defense.
