Everybody who has beta versions of NCAA and ESPN are saying how boring NCAA feels this year compared to ESPN. They all say has that NCAA has the old "Been there, done that" feel that a lot of us unbiased fans where concerned about when the new "FLUFF" information started spilling over. Whenever companies start hyping a controller vibrating and your screen shaking you can bet improved gameplay was not a priority. Face it folks NCAA got ZERO love this year. EA knew that ESPN was on the verge of unleashing a beast and they threw all their resources at MADDEN to try to compete. I'm not surprised at all by what these (beta) guys are saying. It's unfortunate but this is the 1st time in years that I'm not even looking forward to NCAA and will wait for ESPN to come out instead.

Why not play them both since NCAA will be out about 2 months before ESPN.

Everybody meaning IGN and who else? IGN's the only place I've seen say anything close to that.

How about playing both games for yourself and deciding which ones the best that way, instead of going off of someone else's hype and proclaiming that NCAA is not "king"....

Yeah NCAA will be better hen ever, maybe it doesnt have major improvements that ESPN wil have, but both are great . Plus one is pro anfd one is college and like someone else said, it comes out a month and half eariler then ESPN. I doubt EA didnt let the NCAA team do anything and put all their" resources" into madden. NCAA has a diffrent team and has been better then madden like at least 3 yrs running.

Get both enjoy both, they both do diffrent things.

What's it matter anyway? NCAA is the only college game. I don't care how good or bad ESPN may or may not be-it's not college. I don't see where there should be a comparison here.
