NCAA Basketball 10 Available, Post Impressions Here

I need this game I am going to suck it up and buy it from Gamestop today.

I picked up the game yesterday..........................And to my surprise, i actually like the game! Call me crazy, but with the limited animations this engigne has this year, it almost seems perfect for a college game! Does anyone else feel like this? ehh? country boy?

This was a huge issue for me in Live, because non of the players really had Signature animations, but with the college game, even though the animations are limited, you can still tell the difference between avg players, and great players!

Won a game in Phog Allen stadium with Kentucky with a buzzer beater three pointer! I must say, besides this game, 2k is the only bball game this year that gives me that same excitement.

If you guys are on the fence rent the game. In some ways ie dynasty, etc. 2k8 is still better, but NCAA 10 is not a bad game at all. Some people like it, some wont. If you had Live and you liked it alot, you probably wont like this too much, because its basically the same game. Me personally, for this engine this year, the gameplay fits the college game perfectly.

The reviews are right its a fun game that has some flaws, but it does play basketball really well. Add some more animations, clean up some bugs, and this game will be great.

BTW...........This game feels really similar to my beloved NCAA March Madness 04! I enjoyed the hell out of that game! Maybe thats why i like it so much!

not seeing any of this. I've dominated smaller schools with superior opponents as it should be.

Question, did you use the defensive pressure option? Meaning did you individually go through and set the pressure that your guys will play on each individual of the opposing team? I found that its essential to do this to play successful D on AA.

CB,
Are you playing with the dynamic update rosters? Reason I ask, I was playing with the out of the box online rosters and the game seemed a lot slower compared to the update. I finally updated late last night and I thought it was quick.

It was realistic, and with very few of those dreaded contact layups Duke got the majority of the calls as well only adding to the realism. Next game I beat Belmont by 25 with the exact same sliders. I had the cpu's shooting at 60 and mine at 35 for both games I shoot 43 % against Duke, Landesburg had 18 pts and shire had 29 for Duke And Against Belmont I shoot 53 % percent, Tristin spurlock had 15 off the bench I will say it, VARSITY WITH THE RIGHT SLIDERS WORKS FINE

Awesome. You hadn't me worried last night talking about potential game killer and stuff

You still using the sliders that you posted last night?

I downloaded the update last night and the game changed dramatically. I uninstalled the update and went back to how it was. I couldn't play the game after the dynamic update...

I didn't play Live so I couldn't answer this.
