	"Hey Everyone, by now most of you have started to hear some details about Season Showdown, and some of you got uncomfortably close with me as I talked with Pasta Padre and cdj about Season Showdown couple of weeks ago. This week�s blog will focus on the format of Season Showdown, and in the coming weeks we will go in-depth on the Skills, Strategy, and Sportsmanship components that make up a lot of what Season Showdown is all about."

Agreed. Just add some defense and we're good.

OMT seems to have done a great job with the alternate uniforms and Teambuilder looks amazing.

This SS is just...

One of the designers started a thread on here a few hours ago called "NCAA Football 10 Game-Play Round Up" that's all about gameplay improvements.

not a word? there have been talks about gameplay changes since February.

you go down the list that Russ made in the thread http://www.operationsports.com/forum...post2039568196 , the earliest one in that list was posted/talked about on February 1st.

the things in the list Russ posted are just the things that have been talked about already in blogs or posts and there are still things that haven't been discussed yet.

Ding! Ding! Ding! Somebody actually gets the business of making video games.

FIFA has/had a mode similar to this and it was a big pile of FAIL. It's a nice feature in concept but cheesers will flock to Florida.

# 67 Jistic @ 05/15/09 09:56 AM

Really EA? Wow. More Gimmicks, just what the series needs!

Exactly. Pretty predictable.

My thoughts exactly. As I said in the other thread, I couldn't care less about this feature. This blog says they put a lot of time/effort into developing this feature which makes me sad as there are so many more important areas they could have spent it.

Anybody see the gameplay footage of the LSU/Miss St gameplay footage? Terrible DL Awareness.

# 71 tyler289 @ 05/15/09 01:11 PM

I couldn't care less about this mode, to be honest, and nothing in the videos of gameplay made me excited for the game. Looked exactly like 09 with QBs completely out of the pocket and one of the plays had the QB out to the left with DE's suctioned into their tackles (at least I thought they were) and wouldn't go after the QB. Oh well.

This is on par with what would happen if they released a blog detailing Mascot Mode last year.

Greg confirmed that if you don't want anything to do with SS, including the stat pop-ups, just don't sign-up for SS(don't go into the SS menu and pick a team).

Ok, but hopefully it still lets us pick a favorite team, like in year's past. It just makes it easier when starting dynasty/play now/rosters when it goes right to your team.

I am glad that I can turn this off.

# 74 jdr4693 @ 05/15/09 03:10 PM

Thank's EA for saving me 60 dollars. I dont need to spend 60$ dollars on another stupid gimmick like this. It is obvious you guys are still not threatened by Backbreaker or any other competetion. That is the sam game as last year. I'll just update my rosters. From those vids it is EASY to see that this is gonna be madden's year. NCAA needs to step their game up that gameplay looked BAD!!!

Im just gonna create ncaa teams in Backbreakr and hopefully your coke sponsor $$$ runs out and you actually put effort into your games.

# 75 kindella2 @ 05/15/09 05:19 PM

i think its something thats unecessary for me but if Coke is sponsoring then put it in there...vids look fine to me like the camera flashes. the camera view looks different and so the do the finish on the players...i think its gonna be another fine installment.

Yeah but these cry babies can't handle that.

# 77 Young J 334 @ 05/15/09 09:02 PM

I like the point system. That means I can play as Florida and guys can see from my sportsmanship skill that im not a cheeser! I will probably play as AU though! Waaaar Eagle! See you guys online!

	Overall, I am just baffled by EA's decision making this their prime time feature. I honestly feel they don't completely get it. For 2011, take a page from the Madden team & do everything they did this year.

You mean 2011 do what Madden is doing for 2011.

SS is pretty dumb IMO (but whatever)

I hate that in the video when LSU qb is rolling out of the pocket to the left the DE doesnt break off and sack the qb. The suction is still there unfortunely. Madden 10 has that new break off ingagement , WHY NCAA10 not ?
