That did surprise me. As soon as I saw that it WASN'T on the feature list I figured I was screwed. I never used to play with the default cameras on their PS2 games and now I've been forced to play with one longer than I want. It needs to be zoomed out a little more to see the outside WRs imo. They have the different angles in replay, how hard can it be to make some of them playable angles? I'm guessing its related to the frame rate issues.

That's going to be a big selling point for 2010- "new" pregame show with Corso and Herbstreit!

It's so sad that something that was done pretty well on current gen still
hasn't made it to next-gen.

Very sad. I wonder what Tiburon is thinking sometimes. Have they ever watched a real College Football game? Do they think those boring stadium shots get you excited for the game? Its unbelievable. I could see if the gameplay and animations were just simply amazing but I dont know man. I just get the feeling they spent all their time on the online dynasties. It's fine for some, but I'm not an online gamer and spend most of my time playing the cpu.

Yeah i thought this was the year they focused on atmosphere. Very disappointing. Programming some fly-in, players running out and a coin toss with captains should NOT be that difficult. Ridiculous.

If they were really hardcore, they wouldn't be playing the game.
