13.1??? Wow! Normally its at least 13.5

Anyone think stuff arms are a little OP? I seen several times where other defenders were in position but they just fall over not effecting the play.

I was Michigan and I took off for the end zone with my Qb with a stiff arm 5 yards to go, they shuffled each other into the end zone but somehow another was in position behind us while I was fighting for more yards yet he ran into us but it didn't effect the play like it should have.

It looked awesome but I've seen the stiff arm just nullify another defenders on several occasions.

I'm not too sure about NCAA 08 on XBOX. I thought they half***** it.

I'm not sure I have been this pumped for an NCAA game in a very long time. The demo was great, can't wait for July 9th.

All I can say is WOW! This demo is amazing! There was very little I could pick out that I didn't like. My only concern at this point is the high number of sacks. However, sliders should clean that issue right up.

This may be it. This may be the game we've all been waiting for. I am going to hold my reservations until the game is released. Let's hope EA doesn't release a patch that screws it up.

Kind of funny though all the stuff I been screaming for, for the past 7 years is FINALLY done in the game. All that talk of RAM limitations, disc space limitations of the Xbox 360, not enough time in a one year cycle, etc just totally went out the window for NCAA 14. 1. They not only added infinity engine, but improved it. 2. They fixed locomotion. Now locomotion feels and plays out exactly how they described it would be in NCAA 11. 3. They got Real Assignment AI working correctly. 4. They got zones finally working correctly. 5. CPU ball carriers actually use their special moves now. 6. CPU can finally run the option. Not only the basic option, but even the shovel option correctly. 7. They made stiff arms actually matter and make it worth while doing. 8. Players actually plant their feet when they cut. 9. Acceleration has a way more gradual feel to it. No longer is it so instant that you get to top speed. 10. They over hauled dynasty. 11. Added a new mode to the game for the 2nd year in a row. 12. They added a training mini game. 13. Special teams is finally improved. Returners no longer run straight ahead head on into a wall of defenders. So yeah, they did a lot in one dev cycle. Quite impressive. In a way it does make one wonder why they didn't do this before years ago. But hey, like I said, I'm happy. It is here now, so I am just going to enjoy it.

Considering how unhappy you were with the demo last year this post got my attention big time. Has anyone tinkered with the sliders or are they not available? I won't play the demo until tomorrow.

That's the problem man. The sliders work inconsitently depending on the game mode you're in. We all know it's been an ongoing problem. I cannot pull the trigger on this game if that issue has not been resolved.

11. Added a new mode to the game for the 2nd year in a row.

actaully 2 new modes. Ultimate team and season.

I look forward to seeing if this trend continues with the next gen games.......
