[ehh]

The pass-rush sucking seems to be the only real big concern of mine reading through this thread. Looking forward to getting this on PS3 tonight and trying it out.

It's nice to see we've moved on from incorrect sock colors.

Well, NCAA has really only ever had white or black socks, unless the school wore a pro style sock. So I cant really laugh at the cheap joke. But I appreciate you reading my post. I figured it'd get passed over, or buried in a wave of posts.

I played a half this morning before going to work and I've gotta admit - I was blown away with that I saw. I have always liked NCAA Football but this game is getting me excited again as the previous installments were getting a bit stale.

I absolutely love the graphics. I think the players look so much more realistic that they used to. The running games feels extremely smooth and balanced. I pretty much loved everything about it but there was one thing that I thought was really refreshing - the hurry-up offense. Finally, you can choose anyplay while you players are running up to the line of scrimmage.

This game is going to be sick!

You can click in the RStick button to switch to advanced. You have a lot more options in advanced mode. Normally, you scroll one play at a time in the new playcall, but if you hold down the LT button (labeled Bluff) then you can scroll three plays at a time instead of one. This will help you to pick your plays faster. If you hit the B (360, Circle (PS3)) button (while in advanced) then you can fast select your formation/set then hit A to go back to the play level. One cool thing about this new playcall screen is that it will remember the last formation/set you were running on both offense and defense. So if you picked I-Form Normal last time you were on offense, it will pre-highlight that option for you the next time playcall comes up while you are on offense. I believe there are some minor bugs with this in the demo that will be fixed in the retail version, so no worries if you notice some issues. You can also scroll through the formation/sets hitting up/down while at the play level too. Also, holding Y (360 - Triangle on PS3) after a play will bring up the No Huddle playcalling screen. Seems to be some confusion about this screen, so maybe EA should make a blog on it.

Thanks. Helps a bunch.

I disagree with some that are saying the pass rush is ineffective. I have been able to put good pressure on with the front 4 on Heisman. Also I have been pressured a good bit while on the offensive side of the ball.

I am loving the bubble screens this year, they seem to be very effective and actually work.

Yes....it's a demo. It will be correct in the full game. Settle down.

Haha, I had to mention it. In the madden forums it's always a HUGE deal.
