I only played like 3 choppy games last night but if you guys are expecting the gusto of audio from a demo youre crazy.

Agreed, typically demos are stripped of most audio because it makes the demo bulkier.

(IE Madden 10)

UH there are gusto periods of audio my friend, they are just in varied and in odd places that don't coincide with gameplay goings ons, such as the fans getting extremely loud when the home team has the ball and getting quiet when the visiting team has possession. These things are not just the "demo" they are going to be in the final game as well I am guessing. There were myriad of audio issues like this in last years game.

I have another huge problem with this game:

You can only sub players who play the same position as the player your subing out unless you call a timeout and manually sub a player in yourself. So basically you don't have control of your teams substitutions unless you call timeouts. For instance UNC has one SF on the roster on this demo, you cannot sub him out unless you burn a timeout. Yes they have done it again, a game that you don't have full control your substitutions.

Dude the audio takes away too much space and im sure its not going to be retail accurate. Thats why its a stripped down demo, but whatever.

Continue to be disappointed from not finding your crowd fix in a 200mb DL

Your right, the demo will not have space for the full versioned audio files, but the audio files that are running on this demo are innacurate in many ways related to whats happening on the court. So did they make the demo with audio files that don't operate properly? This is a stripped down version yes, but how does that explain the crowd responces being miscued? Last years game had bad audio, so what makes you think the final copy will have correct audio in the right places, reguardless of the amout of audio files present?

You need to ask EA that, but to expect it to work like a retail is ridiculous

I just played 4 games and I must say I'm completely disappointed. This game is very robotic and unrealistic.

Someone said it a few pages back, the PG can do the same things the C can. It just seems artificial with no identity. I honestly can't tell the difference between players - and I'm a big college basketball fan. All the players seem very generic.

I also can't tell which player has the ball when I'm dribbling..it's very hard to read. Also, still no name underneath the player when the CPU has the ball either.

A big disappointment. I will not purchase this game nor rent it.....sorry!

Nothing is robotic about this game.....robots don't move like people. I know it's missing a few animations or at least less than the competition. It's a different gameplay engine and I admit they are missing a few animations. But to keep using this robot term is just getting out of hand.

Game plays pretty good and it's smooth. But to say anything outside of that is insane.

Demo is average at best, but I'm not seeing much of anything on a negative aspect though. I mean I don't expect much from a short demo.

Game is much improved over 09 and it was very good game.

I don't see how you can say 09 was a good game, the dynasty was horrendous, but its your opinion so to all his own

So now you jump from animations to Dynasty...wtf is the world coming too.

I swear some people are just continuing to seek something wrong with this game.

Game is good enough said! And yes NCAA Basketball was a very good game, and I didn't mind Dynasty mode at all, played through 4 seasons, before I stopped. To each of their own of what they expect to come from it. But last year, NCAA Basketball 09 was the best basketball that year. Out of all titles released, it was my favorite of the 4.

Really? I haven't read but the few post he posted here. Didn't know that...

This is the only College Basketball game we have now, and it just seems, so many people want it to fail, with so many post about, not buying if a feature isn't there and things like that.

And now we are talking about framerates...lol to the gentlemen above. Name 1 game other than BioShock that didn't have frame rate issues...
