NCAA Football 10: Road to Glory Video and Screenshots (Press Release)

[jwilphl]

Haha, I didn't realize how much everyone hated this mode.

Don't get me wrong, dynasty is definitely the mode with more users and replayability, but there do look to be some nice improvements here. The thing with Herbstreit and Andrews looks nice, but I imagine it is very repetitive and probably not worth listening to more than once or twice.

Also, the mode is essentially the same with added bells and whistles, it seems. I can't judge yet, but just from the video leads me to this conclusion. I can't stand it when EA rebrands something and then gets all excited like it's a BRAND NEW feature. It seems more and more like EA is catering to 12 year olds.

I'm glad they did things to help Campus Legend, but honestly as others have said, Dynasty should have been first to see major improvements and additions. With the advent of some of these features, I know they can do more in presentation department and actually pull it off. Now it's just a matter of seeing whether or not it happens.

The phone call with Herbstreit was pretty cool...

Other than that. Still very unattractive to me, this will be the first time I wont buy on the first day in 3 years!


YAWN

did they fix road to glory where your games are at night time as well ?????if not that is a major flaw

I just noticed something that is pretty cool. You can walk around your dorm room and apparently "jump" to. If you look at the bottom of the screenshot it gives you the controls to move around and jump.

Yes. Those aren't sim stats and it was surely on Freshman difficulty.

I have to kind of agree with the above.

I wish some of this Road To Glory presentation was part of the dynasty mode, Road to Glory has some great features but I wish this time and money was spent on gameplay and core presentation elements.
