Tell me... Why is there no PC version?

I'm sure this has been discussed, and I probably just missed it. Why isn't EA releasing a PC version of this game, when they do it for just about every other game? I see Madden, NBA Live, but I've never seen NCAA Football or March Madness. What's the deal?

The NCAA won't allow it.




























Just kidding... I don't know...

Re: Tell me... Why is there no PC version?

I have come to the conclusion that EA seems to think there is a lack of a customer draw with the NCAA title on the PC. Ergo, the don't make it. I have wanted that since NCAA 99.

I went without a new NCAA title for 2 years b/c I could not fathom buying a console. I finally gave in and bought a PS2 and NCAA 2002 when 2002 came out. And I will probably buy the next gen when it comes out.

All this to say, I feel your pain!

The only version I remember being on the PC was 97 with Wuerffel on the cover. I just dont think it sold well so they scrapped it. More people need to email or write in about the desire to have one. If EA sees the demand for it, they might give it another go.

This has come up before, but I've always heard the reason they discontinued NCAA on the PC was due to lack of sales. It's a shame though, you could do some great things with mods on the PC.

And the last year NCAA was made on the PC was NCAA '99 with Charles Woodson on the cover...I still have it.

Maybe we can circulate some kind of petition and get people to sign it then send it to them. Ya never know...

Honestly, they wouldn't sell as many copies as they do on a console. It wouldn't even be close.
