Is 09 really 08?

I am not here to bash the game, but I honestly don't see anything new in the clips. The presentation is exactly the same, the animations are almost the same, the commentary is exactly the same. I guess online play and some other tweaks to actual gameplay makes it a "new" game, but it's nothing I've seen to get excited about.

IMO the game looks nothing like 08, but everyone has their opinion

you must not have played '08(or '07 on 360) that much.

the Commentary is basically the same, yes. i have heard a few lines that are new, nothing huge different.

the Presentation, yes, basically the same. really only thing i see changed in presentation is overlays.

Animations? they are better than '08. a lot smoother.
Graphics are better, like the player models and field texture, not to mention the snow games are actually playable this year('08 the snow was just a white solid color blanket).

there are other features that were added as well.

theres not a whole lot you can get out of videos though, need to actually play the game.

I'm still playing my dynasty in '08. I guess, was hoping they would add the team intros, etc., so i could end my current dynasty with the Canes. lol

custom soundtracks and online dynasty are enough to make it a buy for me

I think we've all been wishing they would bring back team intros. It's usually the same answer, 'Maybe next year'. I loved to see the Canes storm the field through the smoke!!!

But intros aside, all the gameplay videos I've seen and what we've read from Steve, this year's version is a far cry from last years. My fingers are still crossed this is the year NCAA gets back to form!
