NCAA Basketball 10 Blog: CBS and ESPN Presentation Packages

[Kevin26385]

EA has just posted another NCAA Basketball 10 blog. This one covering the CBS and ESPN presentation packages.

Quote:

"This is the first time that an EA SPORTS title has had full ESPN in game presentation and the first time any sports game has had CBS Sports integration. It is also the first time that a sports game has had the option to choose your presentation package, complete with different announcing teams. ESPN covers over 500 college basketball games per year and CBS Sports has been broadcasting the tournament since 1982. Knowing this we feel that the integration of these leading brands evoke a strong emotional response when seen in game and will provide you with a greater level of authenticity and immersion. With all of these changes and innovations there is obviously going to be a lot you have never seen before, let's break it down and walk through all of the different presentation elements that make up what you will see and hear in NCAA Basketball 10."

Unbelievable. Again, I am stunned after reading that. Looks so damn good.

The overlays will show names when rosters are updated. Overlays will contain dynasty information as well which I guess was assumed, but it is nice that they mention it. Oh for an in game dynasty ticker with other scores as you play dynasty games or navigate through dynasty menus on a daily basis.

Also hoping these overlays stay on the screen long enough to read them. If people want to skip them, press a button.

Next blog will be about dynasty and tourney presentation. Still need to hear some dynasty info, but very excited due to this amazing presentation.

It says there is a video linked in the blog, but I don't see it. Am I missing it?

They are just referring to the CBS/ESPN integration trailer released last week.

Sweet. This will be the first time I have ever bought an ncaa game, whether it be football or basketball and all because of what I have seen for presentation.
