NCAA Football 14 Review (360/PS3)

[GisherJohn24]

Get custom sounds ready. as usual, No presentation. Same generic fight songs since ncaa 2002. No really, they haven't changed. No life on sidelines. Maybe they will fix this in next generation. Review seems a bit generous. I'm passing

I'm just going off the demo, and if the game is anything like the demo, I'll be playing CF for awhile, at least for me. Never played a demo this long for either EA football game.

For me, there were game play issues for 2k13 that took a long time to over come.

We'll see.

Really enjoyed the demo - learning curve with running the option is pretty steep but I enjoyed it since I'm usually more of a Pro style offense (usually USC's play book over the years) and I liked focusing on something different.

Some friends and I do an Online Dynasty with teams rated 75 or lower and 2-star prestige or lower. May choose someone different based on what I've seen in the demo - played with UTEP in 2013.

i was all ready to make my return to college football after a 2 year hiatus. wasnt thrilled with the demo but thought it would be better in the real game. bought the season ticket and downloaded. this by the end of the first ranked match i had enough of the read option. this game blows and i feel stupid for ever giving it a chance.

-defense is non existant
-option is over powered
-players dont feel right
-players are too slow.
-out routes and comebacks can become unstoppable
-zone is broken
-man gets beat too easily

well looks like back to madden.....maybe. will definitely switch my paid off pre order to something else.

dont fall for the hype and excitement of a new game.

Number scores kind of vary in odd ways from year to year on most review sites.

For example, OS gave 2013 a 7/10 which was actually the lowest score OS has ever given a main console release of NCAA football since the 2003 version(which was the earliest version I saw a score displayed for).NCAA 2013 was the only primary version OS didn't give an 8+ number score.

Now 2013 wasn't a great football game, but I certainly don't think it was anywhere near as bad of an update as some of those past versions were.


Honestly, I think OS's number scores tend to be a little too high in my opinion, but I do think the actual written part is done pretty well and gives a good representation of the good and poor parts of the game.

This game is fun. All due respect to the Moody's, SimStandard's, Apex's, etc. We appreciate your constructive advice and it has been a catalyst for better gameplay. This football game is happening! I've been a huge critic in the past and have been playing video football since the Atari days. I am loving this year's game.

I really do have to agree with some guys on here, Why is it Every Year, best in the series" ..? that is kind of funny, But EA has proved to me they are only going to give us so much, really would love to see other Sport games make by other Companies
