With all of the hype surrounding Madden NFL 13 and its new Infinity engine, most people are forgetting about the other football game: NCAA Football 13.

Though not as big of a drastic gameplay change as Madden, NCAA does plenty of things right that should keep you entertained.

Glad to hear the Dynasty improvements work! Do recruits still have illogical responses? Like when they have a Very High interest in something, but when you talk to them about it, their response is 'Boring' or 'Who Cares'?

The one thing NCAA does do right for the most part is create a deep, enjoyable dynasty experience. Offline or online.

Any word on TEAMBUILDER? TBs release date?

I'm REALLY excited to see how the Mock Draft works. I've always wondered how that 78 overall FB who left early (and that I couldn't talk back) fared in the NFL Draft.

Dose anyone know if there's new facemasks

At least NCAA football is delivering the goods and not subtracting. F
First day buy for me

It mentioned if the quarterback from Oregon is drafted #4 overall in the NFL, that improves the pro potential pitch. Is there a simulated draft or is this just based on projections, such as overall ratings QB Oregon = 90 overall opposed to QB Florida State = 88 overall?

There is a new mock pro draft in the game at the end of each season.

I like how people will preach about something like the recruiting carousel, and then throw it under the bus a year later. It was like a separate mini game, I liked it. I'm still hyped for this game, and don't forget you can get day one from amazon for $45.

I also thought 12 was the best ncaa game yet. 11 was good, 10 was the worst, 09 was ok, 08 was good at the time, 07 was a joke. The gameplay is a bit fast, but overall the game is smooth and looks great, there's a huge sense of immersion this year, atleast in heisman mode, and the dynasty will make this the best college game of all time. And i'd take generic video highlights over nothing.

With no Multi-User Offline Dynasty in Madden this year it's a relief that NCAA 13 seems to have enough on offer to satisfy my Football gaming for the next 12 months.

Totally agree on video highlights. When they cut to the studio in real life they often show a scoring play. 2K5 was very cool in this area and apparently way ahead of its time.

2K5 did not feature updates about other games or highlights while you were playing a game though. It was only during the weekly SportsCenter show.

# 14 jaider @ 06/08/12 06:58 PM

Yeah...if they could implement 2k5s presentation..that would be awesome!!!

# 15 jyoung @ 06/08/12 07:23 PM

Honestly, after playing the demo, I'd prefer to have all the studio updates confined to a half-time show and post-game show instead of them coming up during the game and interrupting the flow.

I just wanted to skip through all the studio updates in the demo and keep playing, as Rece Davis comes in way too much.

# 16 Sydney Deane @ 06/08/12 07:29 PM

Can we actually play as recruits at camps, combines, 7 on 7 etc. in dynasty, so we'd get a feel for their strengths and weaknesses. Is it strictly talk to recruits and obtain attributes, see you on campus.

# 17 bobtrain @ 06/08/12 07:44 PM

To bad you cannot export draft classes or Road to Glory into Madden. That stinks!!

I totally agree. I'm just hoping one of two things was happening in the demo:

1) EA was just showing them off in the demo so they stuck so many of them in one game

2) By playing 8 minute quarters they won't seem so intrusive.

in Dynasty I'm hoping these updates are more meaningful, as they should have more implications in the season. In the demo they are just annoying, though.

Have you seen anything about Triple Threat athletes in your previews? I'm hypedfor this because I want to have a team of interchangeable QB's, RB's, WR's and DB's this year.
