Why?

I've been playing NCAA 06 (Xbox) non-stop after picking it up in a bargain bin for $10 about a week ago. I never would have believed it, but in so many ways the gameplay is light years ahead of NCAA 09 and what I saw in the 10 demo. And I was a die-hard believer in next-gen football.

Playing LAST-GEN football made me realize just how poorly EA has made the transition to next-gen football.

No one in their right mind can claim the NCAA 10 demo plays better than 06. It looks pretty, and the camera flashes are really cute, but it's all looks and no brains.

In the highly unlikely event the finished game plays much better than the demo -- if, for example, players actually respond to right-stick moves and the camera is at a playable angle -- I might reconsider.

But since EA has made a habit of completely ignoring community requests, I'll keep my money until they lose exclusivity or come to their senses and listen to the people who buy their product.

Ithe ONLy thing i agree with here is that last-gen does indeed play alot better. Aside from that, visually, it hurts my eyes.

NCAA 10 is OK. The DEMO shows a game that IS better. Will the finish product be that much different...NOPE. but i will grab it to hold me over til M10.
