NCAA Basketball 09: March Madness Edition First Look

[ExtremeGamer]

Gamespot has posted their exclusive first look at NCAA Basketball 09: March Madness Edition. It looks like an Xbox 360 exclusive.

Quote:

"EA Sports is diving into the DLC ocean with verve these days. Just a few weeks ago, the publisher announced the Ultimate Team Mode, a downloadable expansion to last year's FIFA 09, and now they're getting set to release NCAA Basketball 09: March Madness Edition, a download-only, standalone game based around the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament. Exclusively for the Xbox 360 and available for download on March 11, the game will let you play out the tourney using this year's tournament teams, and will include updated rosters and seedings. The publisher has been experimenting with March Madness-themed DLC in its NCAA Basketball series for a couple years now. In both 2007 and 2008, EA released Selection Sunday Bracket Packs which included updated ratings and seedings and a full virtual bracket. According to EA reps, those who have previously purchased the Xbox 360 version of NCAA Basketball 09 will still be able to download updated ratings and the authentic 2009 tournament bracket for free-- this year's Selection Sunday roster update will be available on March 18."

wow sucks for us PS3 users

I can't say I am really happy seeing that I have the PS3 version. Did they not sell enough PS3 versions to warrant not having it for the PS3?

Sweeeet. I gotta say, I'm looking forward to the rating changes more than anything.

Yes and no.

If you have the disc, it's a free download.

If you don't, then it's a 1200 point download as a stand alone game.
