    The NCAA series is better this year. The animations are way better. The changes this year are really getting overlooked by people this year.

    The NCAA series or any football game can't improve too much more. I mean what else do you want other than to run, pass, and play defense?

    The game is much better, have played it, have played it a lot. I think when the final product hits the stores and we open our tray of the 360 or ps3 0r ps2 whatever, you will find a college football game that will satisfy all of us, or should I say most of us for another year. I will be buying regardless, I loved 09, sure, it had its faults, but this is the only college football game in town. I really think when it is all over, most of us will say by the end of 2010, I hope NCAA 11 will be as good as 10. I am confident of this. I think, and remember this post, that EA has a little surprise for the NCAA fans. Wait and see, did not want to leak out in demo! save this post! SERIOUSLY!

      You got it. I'll make you live down this post next spring, no problem.

      EDIT: What do you mean when you say it is MUCH better? Better than 09? I say its almost the same game, and it plays pretty much like that too. It's no worse or better than 09, that's why people are angry.

        Well pursuit angles and higher incompletions as well as defenders with eyes in the back of their heads do make NCAA 10 better than 09... but to be fair, the changes are very subtle.

          The game "plays the same" in regards to its mechanics and controls. They are very similar, there's no question about it. But when it comes to some on the field things, the similarities are not nearly as much. Pursuit angle seriously change a ton, cause I've had a lot of my 10, 20 yard gains that would have been TDs last year. That is huge to me. I can't just manipulate the CPU into overplaying a punt return and getting an easy TD return. When I throw deep, more than half the time I completely overshoot the guy, which is a contrast. I can throw when I'm hit, whether it's smart or not. The CPU will actually miss a guy every once in a while, which is nice considering these are two of the best QBs in the game, so if these guys are doing it, it bodes well for the rest of the QBs out there.

          The only real SERIOUS issue (to me) that I see is the fact that pass rush is average at best, and the run game can be a little hit or miss. But even that has been an improvement IMO. I think one of the things about the pass rush though, is that the QB will sometime throw the ball so quickly from the snap, as though he can sense you'll get a rush and gets rid of it before it can even come close to getting there. This could be an issue, I'd have to play more than a 2 minute quarter to know if there's more factors involved though.

          Oh yeah, and the running animations and physics are a little helter skelter. That's something that really needs to be looked at a lil bit.

          The problem with this game is if you plug it in expecting a completely different experience, you'll be disappointed. The more I've played the demo though, the more I like the game actually cause more of the changes come out. One game won't show you the improvements that's been made, and that kinda sucks IMO. I would like to think they'd strive for a little more than subtle changes, but the game definitely improved. Now, let's get a presentation, dynasty, and physics retooling for 11 and they'll be really getting somewhere.

            I would agrue with anybody who says 10 isnt better than 09.

            But we should have all these things instead of Season Showdown and Team Builder. If so NCAA would be getting my money this year(Like Madden will this year) but if it goes into 11 then I'll buy 11!

            Number may not tell the whole story ,but they never lie either.

              Totally agree, well, except on Team Builder, I think a lot of people were clamoring for something like that. But yeah, it annoys me that the presentation is virtually the same as last year, and to me, that really makes it worse when you only tweak gameplay as opposed to making any major changes cause then the game really looks similar. A different presentation would give the game a fresh look.

                Im not a Team Builder *****! But when you look at that list of thing you added. Team builder is behind all of those and I would put TB behind equipment upgrades(but thats just my personnal opinion).

                  I tend to agree with you. I have made teambuilder teams but I will NOT play as them. I have always been an FCS guy and I want to see all of the FCS teams in the game. Teambuilder is a cute feature but I want the game to feel as close to "real" as possible.

                    I can see the problem with adding all the FCS schools to the disc. They should have it were you can download all the FCS school from a TB like website. And hopefully they will have there own schedule in dynasty mode.

                      This and a choice between starting an FBS or FCS dynasty would be nice.

                        Instead of buying more pipeline states. Let me buy something extra that exactly make the damn game better. I would pay another 25-30 bucks for this!

                          Absolutely. That option would increase re-playability tenfold.

                            Wow, I don't know what to think of it, granted I only played one game so far. It definitely has a different feel to it. Part of me says I have less control over the player I am controlling and part of me feels it is actually decent. The graphics and the colors make it look more cartoon like to me which I am not crazy about at all, almost like it didn't look like the gameplay vids I had seen so far.

                            I need to play a few more games. I am almost speechless and don't know what to say, so I won't for now since it wouldn't be fair to praise or criticize it too much at this point.

                              payed for the game in full today as well as Madden. I'm pumped for it to come out already. Still hate the camera with a passion but nothing i can do about it.

                                The Graphics will be fine, actually will be better than 09 which I thought was fine. Yhe DEMO is in beta format, the final product will be fine
