When did you get your start?

[The GIGGAS]

NCAA 98 on PC.

I played that game all the time... graphics were horrible.

No it isn't. I saw no difference in the two. 2006 player models was about, I don't know, 85-90% better. There were more stadiums, and I felt the gameplay was a bit smoother.

College Football USA '97 by EA Sports on the SEGA Genesis. It was alright. Didn't play another college game til College Gamebreaker 2000 by 989 Sports for the PSX, and then NCAA Football 2002 by EA on the PS2.

I started with 2004 and have had everyone since. I played on the Xbox up until this year when it came out for the 360.

Had everyone since the original Bill Walsh that came with the team cards in the box listing all the ratings for Miami, State College, Tallahassee, etc. My favorite edition of the game was 04 but the most fun I had was with NCAA 2000 where you could create your own offensive and defensive plays. We had a whole house full in college that played dynasty mode together, yet it always came down to me(FSU) and Bob(Michigan) playing for the NC. Some of the plays we were trying to create to better the other one were pure classics. So many epic battles.

I think it was College Football '94. Played with David Palmer and Alabama. also played NCAA Gamebreaker in addition to NCAA '98.

Started with Bill Walsh, but really didnt get into NCAA games until NCAA 2000. I still play it to this day. I loved the Division 1-AA dynasty, they even had their own ranking poll and also you could make any game a neutral site game. That always came in handy when playing with HBCUs.

My mistake. I liked 2004 with Carson Palmer on cover. I'm thinking of 2005 with Larry Fitzgerald and 2006 with Desmond Howard, really disappointing efforts.
