NCAA or Madden? Need HONEST opinions.

[The JareBear]

As much as I love the NCAA series (I didn't even play Madden 11 once) it does appear that Madden is the big game this year for football. Just look at the info, vids, and previews, it looks pretty amazing.

I am going to have to go with Jared here. As much as I love NCAA, Madden looks to be the football game this year. I am planning to get both and hold onto them for a very long time.

My opinion is that since I haven't had a chance to play either game yet I have no opinion.

Madden simply bores me. I used to get the game all the time, but I never feel attached to my team or the game. You draft rookies and develop them and/or sign free agents.

In NCAA you recruit and feel a sense of pride when actually get a top recruit whereas simply signing a free agent or drafting a rookie is eh... I just feel more attached to my dynasties in NCAA. From recruiting to making sure I have depth at all positions plus the factor of a player graduating after four years or leaving early. The college game is just much more appealing to me...

Sorry NFL...enjoy your lockout.

It really depends on your taste. Recruiting in NCAA football is far better than scouting and drafting
In madden. But that's if your a long term franchise or dynasty player. On the flip side madden 12 will play and look better than it's college counterpart. With all the promised franchise updates I'd take madden no question....if you can wait an extra month and a half.

My honest recommendation after seeing game play from both of the games, if I only could purchase one.

Madden hands down looks absolutely incredible. I never thought I would be saying that because I am a die hard college football guy, but Madden...

INCREDIBLE! Definitely Madden!

He's already said he can't afford 2 games. OP, find a way to shave $60 off the budget... or wait until college football season actually starts. Bet you can find it on Amazon a bit cheaper. Pre-order Madden and you get a $20 bonus, and if you are lucky, might pull off NCAA for $30 with that discount if Amazon is playing nice 2 months after release.
