I just can't stop playing this game. I'll play a game of Madden, maybe a game here and there with ESPN.... but MAN, with NCAA I can get three games in a row and still want more! I guess I just love the college game... Nothing like taking FSU and pouncing all the other teams!

I'm sure once the season starts many others will be back to playing NCAA, just like EVERY YEAR....

Pared. I couldn't agree more. I've been playing with HFA on, and screen shake Off. Frankly, I'm still seeing the low CPU completion %. However, since I quit obsessing about that stat, I'm finally really enjoying my favorite football game. What the heck, so the completion rates are low, but the other enhancements outweigh that problem. I also have Madden, and ESPN and think they are both great in their own right. I'll play Madden in franchise and ESPN for pick-up games alone and with friends. But, I'm sure I'll be playing NCAA more in the long run. What a great year for football games!!!

Same here. 2K5 and Madden may be better, and the collision detection in NCAA may be a game killer for some, but I can't put the game down. I play it non stop. I've played about 50 games in NCAA and about 15 in 2K5/Madden. It just seems so much more fun. The college game is so much more entertaining than the pro game in real life, and I think that holds true in videogames as well for me.

youll get no arguements from me, i think NCAA is HANDS DOWN the best football game this year, and last years version got more burn on my xbox than any game not named halo. If the create-a-school was a little more in depth, then it wouldnt even be close. But just the college game and atmosphere is what makes this the best game.

I agree as well. I'm kind of pissed that I stopped playing it for a couple weeks just to play ESPN and KOTOR. I'd be 3 or 4 seasons in by now.

Now that I know the joys of coach mode it'll be battling Madden for my affections. It's winning right now though. There's just something special about watching college guys make decisions and move the ball down the field. I was bored when I tried coach mode in ESPN.

yeah this game has been getting all of my time. Unfortunately I don't have time but for one game a night. It is making it real hard to play ESPN NFL. I want to play it, but I just keep playing NCAA instead.
