Yea my thoughts about the game have remained pretty consistent.. I didn't like it before it came out, when it came out, or now. IMO its beyond help for me to enjoy it.

lol I cant understand why people hate this game so much. I have fun either way. I guess I just must like college football that much more than the average fan.

I've been messing with sliders on AA and I've found a much much more challenging game than in years past. I'm not a very hard critic but I think everyone cries too much about the game not being perfect. Keep in mind this is really the only 2nd year for new gen football games.

My rating? 8.5/10

Yes...I enjoy the game as well...Seems like there is the same bunch of people complaining all over this website. They make it seem as if this game is trash.

When was the last time we saw a perfect "Sports" game (Tony Hawk doesn't count)???

I think alot of people expect greatness each and every year from EA and wind up getting disappointed...The game is decent, the best version on Next Gen if you ask me...

Dynasty mode is boring, we have been doing the same thing in dynasty since what 1998?Dynasty needs a major FACE Lift! MAJOR!

but as for gameplay it's the best on nex gen to date.

Yeah it has a solid enough base. But just is missing the little things that make a game great. EA games in general tend to lack these little things.

Here's the timeline:

FEB.MARCH~ getting very excited with things like end zone art, field goal nets, and progressive lighting... things are looking good. I'm so excited about taking the Madden formation subs and putting then in NCAA. Also I like to hear all the rumbling about FCS and custom playbooks. This could be the best NCAA to date

APRIL/MAY~ Mix and match uniforms, flex-bone offense, all new playbooks, game planning, something called chew the clock. Wait what you're giving me teambuilder... cool! I am so excited about this game... NOW I'm just waiting for formation subs, FCS, and custom playbooks... an announcement anyday now

MAY/JUNE~ okay this bs EA marketing is really starting to tick me off! Tell me what's in this freakin' game! Why do I know more about Madden then NCAA at this point hmmm... still no mention of FCS, formation subs, or custom playbooks. Hey there's a pre-game... just look they are skipping through the bands so as not to give it away. This game will be so awesome!

Late June~ team builder site is cool It's official.... no formation subs, no fcs, no custom playbooks... you suck EA! I am so not buying this game!!!!!!!!! And let's not forget about the broken sliders and the incorrect rosters! Grrrrr.

Demo time~ okay I like the demo. Damm... okay maybe I will buy the game just to see how it is

July~ week one
week two
week three
* glitches, gimmicks, no progression or subs???

Today~ where is the freaking patch? why won't the devs talk to us? Why is madden such a superior game? where is the atmosphere? where is the presentation? Why do I keep buiyng this game?!?

Note to self: stop saying maybe next year... next year never comes...

Best post ever. Good job.

Played a few games tonight. Still upset about the fact that I have to play 7 minute quarters instead of full 15 minutes with an accelerated clock.

Today I just got really upset that I cannot change individual sliders. The CPU running game is overpowered because if you put up CPU/USER Running they are too much faster than the rest of the players on the field. Yet I love that they are breaking more tackles and play more shifty. So today I lament the poor, awful, inadequate sliders that we have had since 2004?

Biggest question is why can't they make this game customizable for us USERS. Instead of tuning it themselves give us the ability to tune the game to our desire....
