The colors pop so well this year. Like some people said at times it seems a bit cartoony, but the color pop is better then no pop. Michigan's Logan seems to pop out wit the blue and good on. Green field. Looks really nice. Manziel ran all over me and the physics look really good. So far I'm loving this!

Can you play any matchup between the six teams? Such as Michingan vs A&M

Just beat Bama 24-17 on All American. My only selfish complaint would be that Nessler just said "touchdown!" in a bored voice when I scored with 35 seconds left on a 50 yard TD pass.

How are the Hokies? Are they good?

I'm more of an NFL guy, but I have played the recent iterations of NCAA and have been a football video game vet since the days of the Atari 2600. As far as EA football goes, this is the best it has felt in nearly a decade. They finally slowed the game down and it is MUCH smoother. Not nearly as twitchy and silly looking. The physics look really good and the tackling was nice. I saw mostly wrap up, realistic looking tackles and good pursuit angles. Passing was fluid and smooth, but very easy (probably because I was on Varsity). The line play looks and feels very good, but the O line seems a bit overpowered (could also be my difficulty setting). I won 21-14 as OSU vs. MICH. The slower game speed and finally the removal of the arcade, zig zag running makes the game feel 10000x better. Overall, not too shabby.

It's amazing how much more fun a game is the more realistic it is.

My demo has frozen twice at the loading screen. Only have gotten one game in. Don't know if it's the demo or my 360.

One thing that is worrying me a little bit is that I'm getting an immense amount of sacks. Anyone else?

Beat the brakes off Texas A&M with Oregon 31-0. Just ran all over them with the shovel option. I only punted once and I did see the CPU returner actually run towards the sideline and not up the middle like an idiot. With that said, going to play some more. Default All American seems hell of easy this year. Almost like freshmen or something.

Stiff arm is LEGIT......You can keep players away now while you are still running. Picked up 5 additional yards doing that with the QB as his hand was in the safety's chest. So I do like you can just leave it out there while running.

When you aren't accelerating, players move SLOW. I mean really slow, almost like they are jogging. But when you hit that button, it is like engage warp engine, they take off and leave defenders in the dust.

Cover 2 is WAYYYYYYYYYY Better. The DBs drop back further and remain underneath the WR without leaving that huge gap like in years past. Years past they would just let them go and not run with them. This year they drop back with them.

Cover 4 is wayyyyyy better as well. Zones are now useful again.

Very solid. Logan Thomas and James Gayle (I think?) were great for me.

Re: NCAA Football 14 Demo is Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

Just played Bama-VT on Heisman offense, AA defense.. played a half with each team

-after playing Madden forever this feels a little sluggish, seems like the cuts take too long. It did feel smoother than Madden and past NCAA games but just felt slow imo
-commentary is still horrendous
-colors are nice like every else said
-had a couple of long bombs where the WR didn't even try to catch it, the DB either intercepted or dropped it.. no battling
-those cams are definitely different
-ended up turning the crowd all the way up and commentary down and it still lacked a little
-VT's QB had some insane scrambles but also a few 'should have been tackled' plays as well, got hung up on his linemen a few times

game ended with Bama winning 24-14.. my feeling is meh so far

Re: NCAA Football 14 Demo is Available Now, Post Impressions Here (360, PS3)

I'm not seeing many sacks, heisman diff and user control safety maybe that's why

Braxton miller can straight up burn you

Just play my first game. I used A&M against Oregon. Wanted to see if the Ducks could actually move the ball.

All-American difficulty.

Good
- I liked the game speed and foot planting a lot.
- the CPU run game and run blocking were much, much better.
-I had a pass sail on me pretty bad on a play. That's default QB accuracy.
- I like the new fatigue and Acceleration.
-passing was more realistic. I couldn't run outs and curls easily just because the DB's played back. They came up aggressively.
-user run blocking was better/more realistic. Not easier just better.
-physics ingine was good. Much improved over Madden 13.
- KR's were better.
- didn't notice any game breaking glitches.
- I used the RE and the RE pass rush glitch seems to be gone. I noticed more pass rush moves.
-CPU ran the option very good.
-CPU almost blocked one of my punts

Bad
-CPU ran RB screens terribly. He held the ball to long and got sacked most of the time. Did better on WR screens.
- the small CPU RB seemed to break too many tackles to get yards instead of evading the d to get yards.
-CPU pass game was pretty bad. Maybe Heisman is better.
- no penalties all game.
-not enough separation between plays as far a speed for me.

I won 7-3. It was a fun game. Very good for a demo. Only one game but, I'm impressed so far.
