	"t's almost time, you can hear the bands warming up, NCAA Football is getting close to being released to the masses. The thrill of the hunt to find the game early will start around Independence Day, and then the game will slowly arrive in everyone's hands. The question is, is the game worth your $60 this year? The demo has been released today on XBox 360 and later tonight on the PS3. Considering the demo is only 2 minute quarters, I'm not so sure that it's going to make anyone feel that this game is not just NCAA 09.5. I look at what's been changed and added for the '10 iteration, and shake my head when I look at Madden 10's feature set. It's like night and day. You would almost think these teams should probably work together..right?"

I'm going to say yes. The roster situation had me leaning the other way, but EA's proposed solution combined with the demo has changed my mind. I can see myself having a lot of fun with this game.

Garsh quigg, you shur must be rite. The hole state a Ahia is ignirant, but yur shmart. All 12 millun of us are dumb. You need to teach us Buckeyes sumpin cuz yur so smart.

Nothing like a smart guy like you who judges an entire state of people. Impressive.

Those that choose to ignore this warning will find themselves losing access to the NCAA forum until NCAA 2010 comes out. Fair warning to all.

Probably not getting my business this year

# 85 Bamafan3723 @ 06/20/09 07:49 PM

Absolutely not.

# 86 305TillIDie @ 06/20/09 08:00 PM

Madden spoiled us with this year game and now look what happens? everybody expects NCAA to be the same or just about.

NCAA is better this year than last and that alone, I'll buy it.

# 87 Earl1963 @ 06/20/09 08:11 PM

09 will do until EA actually improves the game.

# 88 uraz3r0 @ 06/20/09 08:42 PM

No.

This thread is hilarious, but here's what worries me: I am worried that this is all talk and the sales figures will still be very high and nothing will change for NCAA '11.

Hopefully us @ OS are not the only ones passing on this year's game. Hopefully all of you are actually following through with your decision to not buy the game. Bc if this game comes out and the sales figures are high, then why would they improve?

So let's ACTUALLY boycott the game and not give them a dime and see what happens. Peter Moore will wake up pretty quickly if he has another quarter like he did @ the end of 08. It was brutal.

I am interested to see the sales figures on this game. The sad thing is, after hearing about the broken aspects of this game and playing the demo, I am more interested in the (lack of) sales for this year more than any feature or anything about the game. Really a shame bc I LOVE college football. I'd rather spend $60 on a hot date that i might actually ENJOY, unlike this, lol.

Madden seems so far away now...

Funny thing is I remember when NCAA '08 came out and after playing it for a few months I started thinking to myself that it wouldn't be until NCAA 2011 that I could really start to enjoy playing the game. I was like "okay,it's EA they'll fix it by 2011. I just got to be REALLY patient."

I've bought every NCAA since 2002,even the 360 versions even though I knew after '06 they weren't gonna be any good. I have NCAA 10 on reserve at Gamestop. I know this game is not gonna be as good as it could or atleast should but it's the only college football game for one and the ncaa's on ps2 and xbox were amazing to me. crazy fun,yet somehow with an advancement in technology EA is taking steps backward. Sure they had to get used to the systems I guess but come on it's almost gonna be five years now. EA is doing something wrong and if they don't see then they should just give up the license.

I want a proper football game period. I don't care who makes it. Madden this year is better but honestly it could be MUCH better. If EA does this with the next generation of consoles too...oh my god.

Damn good point, everything they needed to know was on that list.

Same here, i'm buying it.. it's not a new game.. it's an upgrade at best. I figure they addressed about 50% of what was wrong with last yrs game.

# 92 huskerfan101 @ 06/29/09 02:39 PM

Im making a switch from a ps2 to a ps3 this year... Will I still be disappointed??????

# 93 rckabillyRaider @ 06/29/09 02:42 PM

^probably even more disappointed than the rest that have already been on next gen. The gameplay on next gen just doesn't compare to last gen.

# 94 huskerfan101 @ 06/29/09 02:58 PM

So your saying that the ps2 version is better than the ps3 and to not buy the ps3 game?

# 95 Seahawk76 @ 06/29/09 02:58 PM

For the first time in about ten years I won't be buying this game. It's going to be my small protest about the poor quality control and lack of emphasis on improving the core gameplay. I know it probably won't mean much in the grand scheme of things, but I'll feel better knowing that I won't be granting my $60 seal of approval to the direction this series has taken.

People are finally starting to get it. Around 2003-2004 I would get so excited for this game. I would be anxious for it to drop a few months in advance. This year, I didn't find out the release date until a few days ago. That should tell you something in itself.

I didn't even download the demo until just recently. Normally I would have downloaded it the second it came out.

People are finally realizing what I realized a few years ago. NCAA is nothing more than a few new animations and a roster update. Along the way that add and subtract features to make the game feel a bit different. What do we get this year? Endzone art in bowl games. That was something that was in the game in 2004. It's a pathetic that it has take this long to get these things in on the Xbox 360/PS3 when the original xbox had these features 6 years ago.

I understand that a video game is never going to be ultra realistic but I don't want to keep spending money every year on virtually the same product.

What am I paying $60 for? Is it end zone art and roster updates?

# 97 wickedbadman @ 06/29/09 03:29 PM

Started another '09 OD.

I can wait for Madden. Which is strange seeing as the last 5-6 years I have always gotten NCAA and passed on Madden.

Spread the word to my OD buds as well.

No, just endzone art. They Effed up the rosters.

Third person for me. With the extra time I discovered Uncharted (loved it) and started a lot more non sports gaming.

# 100 rckabillyRaider @ 06/29/09 04:46 PM

Huskerfan, it depends on what you look for in a game. Me personally, I prefer the superior gameplay, presentation and features of last gen. Pretty much the only thing that next gen does better so far is the graphics.

Do not sell your ps2! I did and I regretted it. I just recently bought another one used. I love my ps3 though by the way.
