The NFL is king at everything. It will always sell more no matter how much money and time they pour into NCAA Football. The fact the NCAA team can't even release real player names and faces hurts it as well.

I do hope NCAA will be ahead of Madden but I don't really care. I just want a good game.

No question madden has many more advantages going for it. However I think ea underestimates just how many college football game fans are out there. Who knows though it looks like the new team working on this game gets it and will give madden a run for it's money!

It seems like they have some new members but the top guys are still there for both Madden (Ian) and NCAA (Russ and Ben). I am optimistic about NCAA 11 though.

Seeing that Russ and Ben are lead designers where does that put them in the pecking order? I like how the new Executive Producer seems to be kicking things into gear!

I'm not sure. Things do seem to be going well right now. Two months until the demo lol!

it used to be better than Madden back on PS2....I see no reason why it can;t be again. The only question is, will it be??

Thats what I always think, however, I feel like this year NCAA just might trump Madden. I think that the new lighting system will beat out Madden in giving it a more realistic look.

We still have no idea what Madden will bring to the table this year. I'm expecting better lighting and progressive lighting.
