Yeah I really don't like the direction the NCAA series is going.

Hopefully this is the last cream puff info we get for NCAA this year!

Madden 10--->

<----NCAA 10

This might be the first year I buy Madden and not NCAA

SAY IT AINT SO OMT

This is how I feel right here!

Madden is not worth writing home about either. Let's face it, Madden is mostly like NCAA only with upgraded graphics.

Their other games such as Tiger Woods and NHL are doing quite well with nice innovations and great advances forward each year. But I don't see this with EA's football games. I am beginning to wonder if it is because the entire platform was hosed to start with and that the game engine is unsalvageable. All in all I'm really upset because I've been a longtime fan of EA and yet I feel like they are simply ignoring the football market. I think the series needs a complete reboot ala NHL. I imagine this year will be like the last few years, I will buy the game with the eternal hope it will rock. And initially I will be ecstatic with it because it's new and it's football. But after a few weeks it will become stale and boring. Is there anyone out there who feels the same way? I don't know what to do other than lament the passing of a great series and honestly it makes me angry with nothing to do with my anger.

I'm suddenly feeling faint as I read this. I feel you. I argued you and country boy to death over 08 and I actually got a trolling violation. I'm totally optimistic due only to OMT and the fact EA is appearing to want serious criticism from the communities. It will be bad if I'm horribly dissapointed. My ceiling is only set so high due to next gen so I'm very realistic in my expectations but I don't know if I'll be able to stay with them if they bomb 2010. I am holding out hope for the first time in 3 years.

The AI is way too horrible for next gen and that is my #1 concern for 10.

I'm still not confirming my purchase until I hear the defense has been improved

^^^ Hope you didn't look at that photo where the d-backs are just standing there straight up and doing nothing, while the action is going on all around them.

Not sure Watcher if we're thinking of the same screen shot. But that one showing the USC QB standing all by his lonesome, with the whole right side of the field wide open, was very disheartening. While the entire O-Line/D-Line was huddled together in the middle of the field.

I gotta believe if we saw a screen shot like that for Madden '10'...it would cause a nuclear meltdown on the Madden board.

I'm going to wait until, at the very earliest...

1) Somebody whose opinion I trust plays it

and more likely

2) I play it

before making a judgement call on NCAA 10
