I don't really know how to describe it, but this is the only sports franchise (aside from mlb 2k series) that still doesn't 'feel' next gen. Pop in NHL 08 for ps2 vs ps3, the difference is incredible. MLB 08 vs any other baseball game, nothing like it. Madden, NBA series, everything else, clearly has a superior next gen version. But for this series, I actually opted to play my 07 ps2 version over my 08 ps3 version. The graphics honestly don't even look that much worse, and the gameplay is a lot better. NCAA 09, so far, seems just like a slightly tweaked 08, with more injuries (i had 6 in my first game) and more dropped passes. The atmosphere is still incredibly lacking, and honestly, college atmosphere is really the only reason to get NCAA over Madden. I'd be more than happy if NCAA was allowed to just take the madden code, put in the college teams and stadiums, and work from there.

Wow. You actually thought Madden felt like "next-gen"? And NBA Live? This year looks that statement will come true for Madden, but the previous 3 years have been lackluster IMO. What was so great about Madden 08 on 360 or PS3 vs. PS2/XBox? I thought it was average at best.
However, I was just like you with NCAA '08. The turnover festival made me trade it in and buy it for the old XBox. I think NCAA '09 is much better (so far) and it sounds like the retail version will be better than what we have seen over the past 24 hours with the demo.
