NCAA Basketball 10 Available, Post Impressions Here

[ehh]

One thing for you 2K8 guys who are trying to transition to this game, you really need to call a lot of plays or motion. In 2K8 you can run a lot of plays to help your offense but you can also not call a single play and still beat a team by 20. Not really the case with EA's games.

I think 20 minute halves may be alright afterall, I'm trailing GTown 29-28 with UConn at MSG.

I'm really excited to pick this game up now. Seems like the impressions are generally positive.

CB or any one who has the game, could you possibly post Dayton's ratings and also see if #44 is a RS Frosh?

Beat Georgetown 54-52 on a layup at the buzzer by Robinson. Nice to see the tempo feature still works well after I beat Notre Dame 85-77 in an up and down game.

It was funny as hell watching G'Town's offense, in college we ran the Princeton stuff too so I knew everything that they were doing. Cool stuff to see in a video game especially since it's finally well done.

For people worried about the feel of individual players, at least as a user there is a pretty substantial one which doesn't surprise me since it's very evident in Live (trust me I know, after using Chris Duhon all the time with the Knicks it was a god send to go play a few exhibitions with Derrick Rose). Kemba Walker's R-stick moves are much quicker and more effective than anyone else on my team. Dyson's are pretty quick and he can get by guys a fair amount of the time. Stanley Robinson can't drive by anyone so far (ND/GTown) and Coombs-McDaniel (frosh SF) has the slowest R-stick dribble moves and I don't even consider trying to take someone off the dribble with him.

I'm pretty damn impressed so far, default Varsity has given me two really good games. My only concern is that a few too many layups are being missed, I feel like I'm playing 2K circa 2003. Besides that I don't know if I'll be tweaking anything. I'm really surprised at how much blocks are improved from the demo. Offensive rebounding is pretty good too.
