No doubt, Varsity looks and plays the most realistic IMO. Are there any tweaks you have in mind outside of fouls/fatigue? The more I play the more I'm amazed at how good/fair this game is out of the box on Varsity, I really can't think of any glaring issue that needs to be tweaked.

This is the first NCAA B'ball game I've bought in a long time, and I like what I'm seeing so far. The presentation is fantastic, and while I like the gameplay for the most part, I'm really frustrated thus far at turnovers and play in the paint. I need work on those two things I guess. I like it a lot so far though.

For scrub teams/games you get the overlays but no commentary, kinda like NCAA Football.

-Is it just me or do courts seem small? Either that or the scale of players is off. I didn't notice it in Live?!? Something is off, and is somewhat annoying to me. Maybe a different camera will help?

-I like the crowd noise, but wish it transitioned to highs and lows better. Kind of seems like they are too consistently amped. Would prefer more variety. Quiet, moans, explosion after great play, clapping for motivation on defense, etc.

-disappointed no authentic Hec-Ed (uw huskies), figured it would make the cut for arena but guess not.

Nope. Out of the box pretty darn good. Just hope we don't get a patch that ruins this gameplay. I really liked live until the patch. All I wanted for that was fouls to be increased- no idea what happened

Kinda ironic since I'm a UConn fan but Halton Arena uses Gampel Pavilion's model.

SIU's court is way lighter. almost a pinkish tone to the court. no SIU "university style" logo. the SOUTHERN ILLINOIS font at the endlines is different. outskirt is not see through.. everything seems to be there. not sure about the court name at center court on the oob

AZs court looks to be there. big A at halfcourt like that photo

Gonzgas court doesnt have the kennel logo or the other one. just gonzaga under one basket, BULLDOGS on the other. with gonzaga university logo at halfcourt. just like that photo

Rutgers looks food. the checkerboard weave court is somewhat there. if you pause and look, you see it, but theres really no color difference. everything else is good.

some other notables:
seton hall has listed at playing at "newark arena". home of nhl team etc... i think they moved to prudential center awhile back

st johns is ONLY home to "msg"
villanova is ONLY home to wachovia center

I gotta say though, the jerseys look awesome.
only the big 6 appear to have the alternate uniform treatment

others are doing a great job on the gameplay front. ill cover what i know best lol

biggest oversight yet:
UW MILWAUKEE is set to play in the Klotsche Center. Its true its home of the basketball team and volleyball team, but WOMENS in real life. The men play elsewhere. instead we get where the women play.. took me 2 minutes to realize that was wrong

Played my second game on All-Conference. Going to give Varsity a go tomorrow, but I didn't necessarily think All-Conference felt that bad. A few more thoughts.

KU against at Memphis. Memphis full courted the you know what out of me. I turned the ball over a good five times at least.

I maxed out fatigue and FINALLY saw some effect. So, that is a very good sign.

I bumped up fouls to 80 or so and still didn't see many fouls called at all. Will heed the advice of others and bump it up even higher. What I've come to conclusion is that fatigue and fouls play out realistically between 90-100. Below that, you're basically getting an arcade style game.

I freakin' love the post moves with the right stick. Aldrich had a nice little spin move for an easy bucket. Marcus Morris, not so much.

I do think layups need to be upped a little bit, as I'm noticing a lot of missed layups in transition.

Now, for the bad news. The rosters. It's going to be a huge assignment. Just going by KU's roster, no CJ Henry (Xavier's brother) and no Elijah Johnson (Vegas freshman). Instead, there are three crappy walk-ons. That's very disappointing.
