I'd want NCAA 10. The game is similar to 09 on very first impressions (one full game at 2 min quarters at AA diff), but the new things are tantalizing to me. I want to see how season showdown is implemented and I do like the subtle changes they've made that Ive noticed so far. Player lock is really cool, especially on defense.

I like it, but its not mindblowingly different and if the rosters aren't sorted out properly, I may think differently.

I think a lot of the early hype was overblown based on the demo. It played very well and its a video game, so its not goign to be a perfect sim, even if it could be.

i hate the replays in the demo...they seem worst then last year...they have this blur mixed with frame rate issues to them...yuck

but the game is not just like last year...farrrr from it...the animations alone are worth getting it..

touches here and there make the game feel a lot better

the sooners rb just ran for 75 yard run on me....

LOL, so what happened next? Did you return the kick? Did your drive start from the 25?

It seems a bit blander in the graphics dept than last year as well. It really feels like Madden 09. I wonder if they're using that engine.

The crowds look absolutely atrocious as per usual and some of the chants sound canned, especially the defense one. It doesnt sound like its coming from the stadium.

Hell yeah! That's what I want to hear. The CPU RB (DeMarco Murray) breaking a big run on the USER.

One thing though Guru, the Gators' D will not allow that non-sense any more. Ha! Thanks for the impressions man.

heisman again

using the gators...

love that there are penalties called..the cpu has been called for off sides on defense and holding a few times when running the ball

i went up to grab a td pass from tebow and the safety bump me and got called for PI

love how aggresive the defenders are when tackling and swiping at the ball

I returned the kick and started from like my 30 (where I got to on the return). It was so odd.

BTW, I scored and went on to win 42-35 in 3OT!
