First time?

Yeah, Madden 10 was definitely ahead of NCAA 10. As many have pointed out it really seems to shift focus year by year

Washington's Uni's are not updated... That's pretty disappointing. Hopefully they at least have the new black uni's in the game. Also, like someone mentioned before, the field is wrong AGAIN. The endzones have been painted for a while now. Ugh. I guess UW has to win some rose bowls to get some basic things changed eh?

Game looks great can't wait to get it.

These big gaming sites really need to have separate people for different genre's of games, it's blatantly obvious when people who don't play sports games are asking questions/testing/trying to talk about them.

I agree. Thats the reason I go to OS. The big gaming sites don't seem to know anything about sports and really don't seem to care about sports.

Yeah they do.

Count me in the skeptical camp after that vid of gameplay.

I have to say that video really tempered my enthusiasm for the game.

So Far the equipment updates are a big positive as it seems like they are adding more an more helmets each year.

The dreds were a bit of a disappointment when you consider its just the one type of cape thing that doesn't really match a majority of players with long hair... and apparently white guys don't have long hair.

Being a UW fan it would be nice to have the right uniforms and painted endzones.... they were painted in bowl games so how hard is it? And the design of the jersey is already in there for the Away jersey all you have to do is change the colors around. Seems that in all the time they were spending making Ralphie, Bevo, a duck ride a motorcycle etc. they could have done that.... and I bet Dubs (our Husky mascot) doesn't run out of the tunnel leading our team on the field either....

Also, after watching both NCAA and Madden videos, what is with the weird hunched creeping motion the DL do when they break the huddle??

Finally, it looks like QBs will scramble but they still throw balloon balls down field instead of having a decent launch angle.

Teams like WSU, Auburn, ASU etc. need to either huddle or have a huddle that involves the QB giving the snap count to the OL while the WR/RB go to their position and look to the sideline for the play.

The way they have the No Huddle offense on the game it has every team that runs it getting plays off faster than Oregon does in real life (about 16 sec per play) and even they don't go at the break neck speed the entire game.

An easy fix would be to include an accelerated play clock, but even though this has been in Madden and allowed you to play full length games in an hour it is for some reason still not in NCAA.
