I think a lot of you guys have a case of nostalgia. Sure 2004 was great, but 2006 and 2007 are better. I admit 2005 was a step backwards. But you guys are aware that the same core people were out for 2005 but came back for the 2006 game, right?

Nah man...I own both 06 and 07. 07 might be better, but 06 isn't even close. I couldn't play a whole season with 06. 07 is great and just picked it up for my 360, but I haven't even played it because MLB 2K7 has been in the entire time since I bought the 360.

Well to each his own. One thing i'll agree with you guys on though, NCAA 2004 had the best playbooks by far. As a Warrior fan I'm still looking for those wheel routes to come back that were so great for the west coast dink and dunk offense. And the variety in the playbooks were the best thing.

Why is 04 not backward compatible on the 360.

04 PS2 was SWEET !!!

2006 doesnt even compare..That game was not that great at all.

07 sure I admit the Graphics was a different story over 04 but that was it, The gameplay to me did not compare at all and 04 is still my favorite and Best game i've ever played.

you may be right, something "cough..cough" happened when the 05 titles hit that made it hard for me to get into the NCAA or madden series again. which may be why 04 stands out to me.

Sean Taylor was an animal in NCAA04' lol...I dont know how many INT records I broke with him w/ my Miami Dynasty. Thats another reason I loved the game besides great gameplay, having the chance to control Gore,Taylor,Vilma,Wilfork,Winslow,Rolle...etc.
