no worries, I was only mad cause I couldn't see the espn scorebug the whole time and I was trying to check out the play clock. nice work overall though as it's our only look at someone playing an actual game to date.

Also, welcome to the site

Looks really good. Almost too much information lately. Hard to keep up with all the EA news and the draft at the same time.

Sorry it's over 10 minutes, I'll try to edit it down next week, but I'm still wicked busy trying to get our Madden and other Tiger Woods video done.

Anyways, the game this year does actually quite impressive, however, I did not like that catch he had at 8:01 on the flag route when his WR caught the ball it looked like his momentum would have carried him out of bounds, but the WR almost cut on a dime and turned up field without really slowing down. That did not look good. However, I thought everything else looked awesome. I am definately going to buy the game this year, and I haven't been this excited for the game since NCAA 04 or so.

Sorry for lack of questioning, you gotta remember this wasn't a demo showing off a lot. It was really just for the new game mechanics. Also I wanted to get into change to Road to Glory and the modes, but as Russ said they aren't releasing any info on that stuff just yet.

Yea I got to agree with you on that issue. EA needs to listen to fans a little more about how they need to do it. Instead thinking about how people might like it.

Good video though this game is looking really good hopefully we can get a blog in a day or two about team entrances or going into greater detail on playbooks. I wouldnt mind a gameplay video showing off the presentation either haha : )

Yea last year was ok. But to many problems. But it seems this guy takes it upon himself to speak for the fans by saying we enjoyed last year. Which is wrong. Seem to me like it is a complete lie straight up. Sometime I believe that is the only way EA can cover their tracks by them lying about how much the fans love the game to sell more copies. But I believe this year will hopefully turn EA sports around.

I wasn't speaking for the fans, but as I said on the last page, not being a hardcore fan of the series last year's title compared to my previous experiences with the game was rather impressive.
Also from talking not only with the NCAA guys but the other devs at EA they were all very frank about admitting to issues in last years games. I'm not defending them here, but while our coverage or any sites coverage might not focus on any developer admitting to issues in games, my sense is these day many of them really are listening to feedback on the intertubes.
Also as far as EA Sports goes I mentioned on my site last year, that since Peter Moore has taken over and now these are the second batch of titles that he's overseen the entire development process for there has been some major improvements.

Sorry about that bro. Didn't mean to step on your toes about that. I might have token that the wrong way I guess. I'm so sorry. But ha misteaks happen.
