    Agreed. Everyone in NCAA 09 seems to animate the same, and there are too many repeated faces.

    I want to be able to edit my teams to look like real players with exact faces, gear, ratings, tendencies, and shot animations.
    Bohannon sure wouldn't like that. Having a player looking just like him would break his heart. I wonder what Bohannon is doing nowadays? Oh, I can answer that he's waiting for the courts to get his money for whining about player likeness.

    I'm sorry but he's the one that started all this player likeness bull. Let the courts give him a couple thousand dollars that he can't get in the NBA. Please? I can't for the life of me understand this stuff. It's not damaging anybody or their careers. Geez!
    NCAA- GO VOLS
    NBA- GO CELTICS
    MLB- GO BRAVES
    NFL- GO COWBOYS
    NHL- GO PREDATORS
    NASCAR- Chase Elliott
    MLS- LA Galaxy

    RIP Pat Summitt: We will all miss you!

      What are they? Just curious. I really can't think of any.
      Mainly it will be in the pacing department and the overall stance of a player! Compared to the one of a Pro-NBA player...I'm sure they can make them different.

      NCAA 09 and Live 09 played totally different and so did Live 08 and NCAA MM 08....They can separate the two!

        Agreed, pacing, spacing, and game speed differ between NBA and NCAA basketball, and EA has done a nice job of recognizing that difference in their separate titles. I think NCAA's presentation and college atmosphere could use more work, but pacing is fine and doesn't need any changes.

        Animations, however, should not really be that different (unless you are playing with a really crappy school). Players use the same techniques to dribble, pass, and shoot the basketball and have the same defensive stances. The individual player movements are visually identical.

        I'm not really worried about the gameplay experience feeling different because EA has excelled with that in the past. I just the think the difference should be emphasized with elements other than player animations.

        Or maybe his original argument was that Joe Blow from Southwestern Nevada Tech should not be able to pull off a flashy dunk like LeBron James. In that case, I agree, animations should be different. But I think that aspect is more rating-dependent, and theoretically, I should be able to boost Joe Blow with a 99 dunk rating and do a 360 on a wide-open fast-break.

          I'm another diehard Ch2k guy, hoping that NCAA Basketball 10 is the real deal. I need this game to be great, so I can get my college basketball fix.

          I hope they have AAU ball or high school games so we can test recuits out.

            I'll preface this post by saying that I'm a 2K guy when it comes to basketball games (I was always neutral in the football). I was disappointed just like everyone else when 2K ceased the College Hoops series. I played the demo of NCAA BBall 09 numerous times, and while it wasn't enough for me to want to purchase it, I did see some elements in that game that were missing from/better than what the College Hoops series offered.

            I've been checking out NBA Live 10 updates. I've already decided to go with NBA 2K10, but I still will want to play a college bball game throughout the season. Seeing some of the elements that the Live crew plans to bring this year, I'm very optimistic that NCAA 10 will deliver a very good experience. Typically, the NCAA games from both developers bring some of the features over from their NBA counterparts, and I'm guessing NCAA 10 won't be any different.

            Anyone else feel the same way?
            I feel the same way. I will be buying NBA 2k10. However, I want to buy a college game. I may check this out. Hopefully, 2k will be allowed to produce a college game soon.
            When the game is on the line, winners want the ball.
