What an empty feeling this is...

And for the record if this game is in any way shape or form better than 2005 I will not be dissaponted. That was dissapontment, 2005 that is. That game was broken.

05 being broken was an opinion of some but not all of us. In fact I still play 05 and for the 100 reasons some people bash the game I have a 100 reasons why I still like the game. So, at this point I wish people would just say 05 didn't play well for them rather than claim the game is broken because if that was the case then I would have the same issues as many others who hated the game. But I didn't and the game played fine for me. Is it perfect no but it wasn't broken either.

I rarely read the impressions threads and such unless there's a question I have or if there's an interesting convo going on about an aspect of the game that i'm interested in. Of course things are a little different this year as I HAVE to take a cursory look at most threads but I don't mind.

Im in the same boat as you and I would wait another year for this game as long as its the sequal to '04 and not '05. Since ill be lucky to get mine shipped here in a week (since they stopped selling the game in Canada) i've developed an insanse amount of patience.

2005 was broken (At least on the x box)

Completion % were way down no matter what you did.

Matt Leinert with 35-42% completion percentages is way unrealistic and you would be hard pressed to get any QB in the nation above 55% Playing the games of course. The CPU's percentage was much worse. In most games they only completed 30 % or less. That is a broken passing game IMHO.

The X-box version had some terrible slow down problems coupled with the terrible passing made the game broken without a doubt but thats just my opinion.

That being said, I did play the hell out of it. Ended up with the PS2 version and played about 5 years of a Texas Dynasty. Dont think I dont love the NCAA games. I do, 2004 might have been the best football game made in my eyes.

I'm the exact opposite. I wish I never picked it up. The AI is atrocious and the statbug is ridiculous. I can throw bombs all day long. And as much as people can say, "don't do that then" well, what happens when I need a big play at the end of the game? I pretty can count on it... toss it up baby, toss it up!
