I gotta say, the opinion of this game has changed dramatically here at OverreactionSports since this time yesterday.

I really don't. I'm having great games on AA. In my three games (all Bama (me) vs. FSU) I've lost 6-3, lost 14-0 and won 10-0. I think if I were putting up 35 ppg as some people claim, I wouldn't like it either. Luckily I'm not that great or I don't play at a fast enough tempo. With a few changes and a slider tweak here and there the retail version could be really, really good.

Another thing that I noticed was that the CPU won the coin toss and actually deferred.

While I like the lack of suction, I feel like it adds an arcade element to game that I don't like. What I mean is that when you make contact with a player, but he hasn't got you wrapped up and another player hits you from a different direction you will slide like 3-5 yards. It doesn't feel like a gradual momentum shift... it is like you have been hit by a train and been carried down the tracks a ways. I notice this on sideline hits as well. When I get hit on the sideline, I slide out of bounds rather than stumble. It just seems odd to me... like it happens too fast and there is no weight to the movement.

Ive had a couple of nice scrambles with QB #3 from FSU. I had a couple of runs that I wouldnt have of had in NCAA 11.
I am super glad that PA works well in the demo. I can fill up my Custom Playbook with PA passes

My first 2 games went down to the wire. 3-0 and 14-7.


So much fun. I can't wait for the retail version.

Really, why people expected to be able to see individual blades of grass from 30 feet in the air, i have no clue.

Wasn't 4th down. Wasn't last 2 minutes of the game.
