My tv only has 480p/1080i and the demo runs at 480p. It looks really bad at 480p.

I blogged my impressions after giving both fair gameplay.

I've played about 9 times so far, 5 OSU and 4 LSU. And in each of the nine games I returned an interception for a touchdown.

I am praying this is due to Varsity.

Not sure how it can run smoother than the PS3 version since in gameplay it runs smooth as butter. It also hitches pre-snap after the the play is picked. This happened in every next gen version though.

That's a relief, I was afraid night games were the "dusk" games.


I love the WR catch animations (Jump catch may get old in a dynasty) but other then that...money.

The QB animation has to be the worst animation I have ever seen in a game. The ball always seems to come out at the wrong time or something. Just doesn't look natural at all and is very distracting.

It seems like it takes me alot longer to get the grouping I want compared to previous versions.

are any of you having an issue of the QB lining up just slightly to the side of the center and on replay the football has no rotation while the ball is in the air

It's great to see the hitch play works now and isn't an automatic pick-6 like in past versions of NCAA.

With such little time what do you expect the qb to do when time is short and they're trying to score at the end of the half or game.
