Yes, this sounds good, on paper. But it SOUNDS good every year. Does it PLAY good?? That remains to be seen.

Teambuilder needs a huge overhaul, hopefully it is a un mentioned feature at this point.

Soon there won't be a college fotoball video game because people will think there is no interest, when actually it's just people being tired of poor execution and don't want to buy it from ea's monopoly. I really wanted to buy this game this year, but for two years in a row it will be a no buy.

I agree. I can t believe people still get hyped into this every year. It MAY be great. I hope it is. But I am way past getting all hyped up for this only to be disappointed. They've fooled me too many times.

The last time we were told an overhaul to passing was.... ?

I'm optimistic and hopeful. And I think a lot of guys share my point of view on this. I think people need to understand something: when guys like me say "this looks good," that doesn't translate into "ZOMG BEST EVAR RIGHT NAO!" It means "from what can be seen, this is the right path."

I don't think too many people here are blindly ready to claim NCAA 13 as awesome based on what was said.

I don't really care for the legends mode. I mean it's a nice thing to have and I can see why SOME people may want to dive into that, but I'm betting the majority of people won't really care for it or play it ever. Hopefully the gameplay and presentation are solid this year as well as a nice upgrade to dynasty and RTG.

new passing system sounds interesting... it'd be nice to see the corners and wideouts actually play the ball in the air realistically and stuff

Hopefully the crowd is way louder than last year (they said louder crowd too last year) and I hope this "read and react" defense, means that my defenders dont keep dropping back in coverage when they see my QB scramble.

It answers just about every big request that's been asked of the team. New passing system means probably better trajectory on passes, read and react AI probably eliminates psychic defenders, new commentary is a plus, recruit scouting is great (hopefully we get some busts and surprises now), studio updates mid game (everybody asked for this or at least something close), and enhanced audio means better crowds I would think.

I'll wait for the actual news to break before I judge anything, but at least they're moving in the right direction, and the one that the community has been asking for.
