Simple. Sign out of Xbox Live.

That doesnt stop it at all

All you have to do is look on xbox.com and it will say you have been playing NCAA

actually we(EB/Gamestop) don't have the game yet. We won't have it until the 12th of this month.

And the chances of you getting a manager, that doesn't know you, to give you an early copy of NCAA are slim and none. The consequences for us giving the game out early or taking one home early is termination. Bottom line.

man, i'm the opposite, these forums get me through. i love the insanity and hype because as the rage and adrenalin builds, then it can only climax in an NCAA game being available to purchase, somewhere, anywhere, at any time, soon..........

See, I'm with you on this, but this leads to an almost-certain letdown. You get so worked up that you just can't wait to get your hands on it, all the while thinking that this is gonna be the best game in the series ever. More often than not, it isn't.

All the different websites that get a preview up on their sites also do us no favours. By the time we've read everything, we know exactly what the game is gonna be like. I miss the old days when I would buy a game and have no idea whether it'll be better than last year's, and also not let my opinion be skewed by having read x amount of previews and almost looking for problems in the game.

Having said all that, I love every minute of the days leading up to the release.

The buildup is most of the fun..Anyone remember NCAA 05?

If anyone is gonna give it to you early its the small mom and pop shops downtown. A small chance but a better one then the bigger companies.

I have been so pumped up the last 2 years, me and my buddies made a movie leading up to the release. We are going to do another one this year... LOL! Yes, we are the biggest NCAA nerds ever... Haha
