Well yeah, I've won games on Heisman, but that's just the issue. I don't want to play smart. I want to have fun. When I play my friends I play smart to win...which is fun. But to be honest I don't want to win a 10-7 scrapper with 8 punts. Not fun for me.

I understand how it can be fun. It's just not my cup.

I prefer rushing for 194 yards and scooping up 8 sacks. Even though it's unrealistic it's a lot more real than the crap you see guys do online.

I've always hated Heisman, I called it "Cheaply-cheat-in-favor-of-the-CPU" mode..

I respect your opinion ODogg, and I always enjoy seeing people like the game. The game wasn't for me though. I liked Madden better, because it wasn't as fast, had better O-Line play (although it still wasn't very good), and I guess part of me doesn't like NCAA Football because it doesn't have a play-off.

But this year is different it seems. If I play the demo and like what I'm seeing, I'll get this game right away.

I usually feel that way and my skills are definitely more suited to All-American. That said, NCAA 09 played a lot better on Heisman (I tweak the sliders in my favour) than any other level. I think I did the same for Madden '05 on the PS2 as well as NCAA '06.

It's funny that after reading so many comments about how fast the game is last night I played it and thought 'wow this game is too fast'. Power of suggestion I guess because as I stated before I never had any issue with it.

RayAllen20 - Hopefully the demo will be stellar or they wouldn't be releasing it a month before the actual game. I've never known them to do that before. Usually it's just a week, maybe two, before the actual game drops.

Really, it isn't the overall speed of the game, it's the animations and the inconsistencies there. Throwing the football is ridiculous, the ball should not travel like that, makes it very difficult to defend a bullet pass. There are warping issues that make he game seem faster than it really is. If all the animations were smooth and realistic to the context of what a player was doing, it wouldn't seem so fast. It APPEARS in NCAA 11, there's more control with animations, though the passing still looks fast to me, but it could have been old video. I'll be interested in seeing how the game looks in full affect.

As for 10, I did enjoy it a lot, actually. The game plays pretty fun for me, even though it sometimes looks like crap. I'm really looking forward to 11, as I can only assume it'll entertain me just as much, and likely more.

I thought it was a very fun game. It wasn't as good as Madden, but it was still a lot of fun.

ODogg how dare you!

LOL j/k.

Honestly, I liked the game also. Its the football game I played the most this past year, other then APF.
