Played two games - same results really. I'm not sure what you guys are doing to get the CPU to score points, but I'd love to know, so I could do it. They pretty much just dink and dunk, then punt every drive. I go from being excited about the game, from reading posts in this thread, to ''meh'' whenever I play the demo.

This might not be the full game, but I can tell you right now - There's going to be more of the same interception crap that plagued last years titles. The CPU is ********, they're not aggressive at all. I'm TRYING to let them score, and they still can't. Maybe I downloaded the wrong demo or something, because I'm missing the good results many of you seem to be having. One person in this thread ended up downloading the same demo, though - Whoever had the CPU get picked off three times in three drives - Welcome to NCAA '09.

I won't judge the game until July 15th, when I can adjust the sliders HEAVILY in the CPUs favor... That's make or break time.

How do you know this when you're playing on the lowest level?

My only complaint so far (and I'll grow to like it) is the right stick as the pump fake. Four times already I've hit LB and thrown a duck.

I must say EG, I completely disagree, I love the right stick being the pump fake myself. The directional aspect just really makes it so much more realistic, to be able to pump one way and come back and hit someone the other. It's bad@ss!

Is it possible to taunt when you are about to score a TD?

Haha, well I know I can't WAIT to control them now with this wide open gameplay. Their little, fast, agile receivers should be great fun!!

I have them both dl'd and I can't tell the difference. PS3 owners are gonna be very happy with the results. I guess I am gonna be making the drive down to Bowling Green, Ohio this year for this one. My son and I are playing it on the PS3 and it runs smooth as butter. Peace!!!!

Re: NCAA Football 09 Demo Available: Discuss Here

on defense did they take out the ability to commit to the pass or the run?

has anyone else noticed the d linemen have the wrong hand down?

Re: NCAA Football 09 Demo Available: Discuss Here

I believe you have to have big separation from the closest defender and be within the 5 or 10 yard line to taunt. IIRC, it's Circle (PS3) or B (360).

It's in the game, but there is no on-screen notification for it.

I'm loving the ps3 demo...the gameplay is faster, the field textures are beautiful...

Re: NCAA Football 09 Demo Available: Discuss Here

I enjoyed it for a demo but didnt come away overly impressed. The lack of presentation takes away from the atmosphere so it just doesn't feel like a college game imo. Its like watching a college game on ESPN classics.

The game play felt alot better than last year, the CPU QB seemed to be hitting every guy that was open which was frustrating but then he would make a dumb mistake and turn it over. I got 2 turnovers in my Red zone, both of which were dumb mistakes.

Overall i do not think i will buy this game but ill definatly hang onto my blockbuster copy for awhile.

There is an update for the PS3 to 2.36. I assume that's the reason for the slow download of NCAA.
