I know in 1999 the made NCAA for the PC (and it was horrible). Anyways, if they sell Madden for the PC why not NCAA? Does anybody have a good reason? I think it would sell well, definitely better than Head Coach.

Sales. Plus PC games have to constantly be maintained with patches and it may just not be worth the money.

It would sell better than Head Coach. I realize sales may be the issue but I got to believe there is some kind of a market. I'm hearing from a few that Madden for the PC (07) is the best overall (graphics, gameplay, and mods).

Yeah, from what I've always understood, it's just a matter of it not selling enough on the PC to warrant a release. Of course, they haven't tried in so many years that it's kind of self-fulfilling. I would LOVE to see a PC release for NCAA. The mods alone would be worth it.

I bet we'll see a PC release for NCAA eventually. They can't hold out forever, right?

And just for the record, I played the hell out of NCAA 99 on the PC. I built a heck of a dynasty with Michigan. That was back in the days when recruiting consisted of choosing a position to recruit, the type of player you wanted, and how many of your 100 points you wanted to allocate towards getting a recruit. It was a total crapshoot.

Well at least two of us would love to see the game made. I'm still loving MVP 2005 for the PC (thanks to MVP Mods).

I don't own a 360 but from what I gather on these boards EA is gonna be making a buttload of patches for NCAA and Madden anyway.

I agree with the sales aspect though, the bottom line is always money.

Couldn't agree more about MVP 2005 and www.mvpmods.com

I have, IMHO, the absolute best, most complete baseball sim available. Its just ridicilous what can be done with that game given all the mods available for it.

As for the prospect of seeing NCAA for the PC...I have been waiting and waiting for years. I sure hope it happens one day
