    just popped in 11 and wish I hadnt

    I just popped in the PS3 version of 11 and oh my god how much better does it look? I know we've only played the demo but I always thought 12 had poorer graphics.

    There are no jaggies, the grass looks beautiful, colours are less washed out.

    I wonder what has happened in the last 2 years. Do you think the 3d grass has done something? Im hoping the retail version looks a lot better than the demo. Sorry to beat a dead horse with this but I just cant believe how much better it looks.

          I've been hoping that it was a result of keeping the size of the demo download to a reasonable size but it's been out for quite a while now and nobody at EA ever put out any sort of disclaimer. I can't imagine that the official release is going to look as bad as it does in the demo but after last year one never knows.

                I agree on the graphics 100%

                Also I feel 12 was pretty much a step done in every way but that's just me..

                  I don't know if this is a PS3 specific issue (and if it is, then you can disregard this post) but my NCAA '13 demo looks stunning (not that I care what the graphics look like).

I totally forgot about all of this. 12 was a huge step down in almost every aspect. There were some improvements, but overall they don't make up for everything that took a step down.
                      I never stopped playing NCAA 11.....

                      Once you get some nice sliders and edit a few things in the player ratings i think NCAA 11 plays some really good football.

                      I enjoyed NCAA 12 but only in Coach Mode....this was the 1st year I've ever spent my entire time just playing that way.

                      The game looked 50x's better with Coach Mode camera view....any time i tried to play it outside of coach mode i just got highly frustrated with it last year.

                        Stadium Sounds fade out in 11. Drives me nuts in 12 that a song will keep going into the next play.

                        Grass looks 100 percent better in 11.

                        I think when we look back, the pre-patched version of NCAA 11 will be the best on this generation of consoles.

                          Hmmmm....makes me want to pop in 11...

                          With that said, delete all the patches for 12 and don't install them (i.e. play the unpatched game)....it looks way better....

                          (edit: meant to say that the unpatched 12 looks better than the patched 12)

                            Not to de-rail this thread, but do you still use your slow speed varsity sliders? This thread has made me contemplate re-installing and I wanted to look for a set to use....

                              Thanks for your input but I'm not disputing this.

                              If you read my post and let it compute for a second (or two) you'll see I'm specifically discussing the texture issues and general graphics of the ps 3 version.

                              I'm not saying anything about gameplay etc.
