You forgot Japan (although in their case it is by choice).

During the season, the coaches aren't going to worry too much about recruiting and I imagine they only visit the very local players. 2. There's too much to keep up with. In NCAA it's a once a week quick thing during the season and a 5 time post season thing. If I'm in the mood to play a game, I don't have to worry about recruiting. In CH2K it's a daily thing and draws me out of the game. I enjoy NCAA's simplicity but still useful. Last years blocking was 10X better than the preious years. I imagine the progress will be slow but it's there.

I may be one of the few guys on your side. I think the recruiting in CH2K is too much. I enjoy the simplicity of recruiting in NCAA. Too many things to do during the week takes away from the actual time of playing the game. To each his own.

Would have been nice if they added some gang tackling. I think i've messed up by starting to play nfl 2k5 again and now I see all these things i want to be in EA's football games. Especially ESPN presentation type stuff (replays and all). *sigh* some day...

I find that assisted recruiting works well for people like you or myself who don't want to spend too much time recruiting between games. You set your priorities and the coaches use whatever points are available to go after players that meet them. You can even set a target list of players and they'll recruit these in order. You just have to check your email between games cause when a guy is ready to sign you have to manually offer the scholarship. But it works well.

It's probably been said a million times before, but I'll say it again . . . since EA has ESPN rights, I want to see College Gameday plus the College Gameday Wrapup show with all the highlights of the big games. VC was able to do this, EA should be to.

That you accept the game at face value is cool, but you can't make the argument that it's properly portraying the sport it's supposed to emulate.

I ment feature wise as in you won't see a huge difference in content (until they fully integrate Gameday). And player interaction will come. They worked on it last year, and I'm sure they improved it some. It's not just going to one year magically be great.

Maybe it'll be in the 360 version (we can hope). But remember this is the first year they had the liscense (EA was the only one who could make NCAA and NFL games last year, but I think Sega still had the contract).

You obviousley havent played the 360 version of any EA game. Completley diffrent game.
