For the first time in franchise history, familiar faces are now on the field in NCAA Football 13, where fans can build a national powerhouse by placing one of 10 former Heisman Trophy winners on the team of their choice for the upcoming NCAA season. Under center, in the backfield, or split wide, utilize a Legend’s skill set in the quest to win the Heisman Trophy. Video interviews with each Heisman Trophy winner will be unlocked throughout the season, detailing the achievements of their glory days. In addition, fans can truly test themselves by matching their Heisman Legend’s historical performance in one season, which will not only win the Heisman Trophy, but also unlock each player in Road to Glory.

Heisman Legends include:
  • Marcus Allen– 1981 Heisman Trophy recipient, University of Southern California
  • Doug Flutie– 1984 Heisman Trophy recipient, Boston College
  • Eddie George– 1995 Heisman Trophy recipient, Ohio State University
  • Robert Griffin III– 2011 Heisman Trophy recipient, Baylor University
  • Desmond Howard– 1991 Heisman Trophy recipient, University of Michigan
  • Carson Palmer– 2002 Heisman Trophy recipient, University of Southern California
  • Barry Sanders– 1988 Heisman Trophy recipient, Oklahoma State University
  • Charlie Ward– 1993 Heisman Trophy recipient, Florida State University
  • Andre Ware– 1989 Heisman Trophy recipient, University of Houston
  • Herschel Walker– 1982 Heisman Trophy recipient, University of Georgia
The following DLC Heisman Legends are also available:
  • * Tim Brown – 1987 Heisman Trophy recipient, Notre Dame
  • * Archie Griffin – 1974 and 1975 Heisman Trophy recipient, Ohio State University
  • * Jim Plunkett – 1970 Heisman Trophy recipient, Stanford University

  • ** Matt Leinart – 2004 Heisman Trophy recipient, University of Southern California

** Available through NCAA Football 13 pre-order from GameStop.

REACTION TIME

The new Reaction Time feature allows players to experience what it’s like on the field as a true Heisman Trophy-caliber athlete. Reaction Time literally slows down the action, allowing users to look for openings in defenses and perform skill moves to get into the open field, before smoothly transitioning back to regular speed. Gameplay has also been enhanced to include special teams and an updated playcall system.

I've spent literally 99% of my time playing offline dynasty since I started buying NCAA football..... in 2005. I'm sure that a lot of people are the same way. I don't think it's a stretch to assume that the vast majority of people who buy the game buy it for dynasty.

So my question is, WHY do they always spend time making things like this and season showdown? They need to be making improvements to dynasty, making improvements to player models and equipment, making improvements to the gameplay, etc. I mean, yeah, they do make a handful of improvements to gameplay and dynasty every year, but the time they're spending to make this mode could be used to improve dynasty/player models/gameplay MUCH more.
Because it appeals to people outside of the hardcore fanbase. Some people will like this and will enjoy doing it.

So you can put the Heisman player on ANY TEAM in ANY OFFENSE

Doesn't Barry Sanders Jr. play for Stanford? Well played Barry, well played.

Barry Sanders looks great in a Stanford uni. Can't wait to see his son play

This heisman mode sounds fun. Have they mentioned if quarter length will be adjustable?

Step 1: Pick a player from a Spread school.

Step 2: Change Spread school to Pro-set school.

Step 3: Avoid having to demonstrate busted Spread plays?

Reaction time - meh
 
# 69 TheRegan @ 05/30/12 02:45 PM
Wait, does this mean we can play as a Kick/Punt returner in RTG?
 
# 70 swac07 @ 05/30/12 02:46 PM
Reaction Time = Blitz the league's "Clash"= Max Payne's bullet time ... I don't know how I feel about this arcadish feature but we'll see might be cool
 
# 71 RebelHog @ 05/30/12 02:46 PM
If you don't like the play, you can choose a new one. THANK GOD

Sure, if you don't have Live at all.

# 76 Gotmadskillzson @ 05/30/12 02:48 PM

# 77 drlw322 @ 05/30/12 02:48 PM
Running and tackle animation look exactly the same as last year
 
# 78 ODogg @ 05/30/12 02:48 PM

What's the point of this.. Such a waste of time. Pure gimmick/marketing addition once again.
