Screens are looking great, as usual. I will wait and see if they look half as good in motion. The animations needed far more work than the graphics IMO.

Re: new blog short is up

O H I O man I can't wait.

It looks good overall but the red strip on the Buckeyes helmet is still way too wide. It makes most of the stripe red and it should be equal parts red and white...just me analyzing but it is distracting if you play with them alot. Last year I had to switch all of their helmets to a certain type in the game because it narrowed the stripes a bit and it looked better.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Blog: Screens and Lighting

there is no way in hell that for one minute I will believe these shots are real/in game.

EA has done every year, throw these pics at us and then when the game comes out the graphics look nothing like these early screens.

If real, screen looks great.

My issue is that they always shows shots and angles that are never actually in-game. These should be showing up in cut scenes and auto-replays, but they never do.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Blog: Screens and Lighting

Just looking at the comparisons I dont see how people cant see the difference in lighting of the Texas jersey. I am also they threw in "dont worry we know gameplay comes 1st" at the end to shut up all of those act like EA only cares about looks. I can see an huge difference in the direction ea are going in this year than last. July cant come fast enough.

Hiro man you said a mouth full because my hands are sweating and i cant wait to get my hands on this years game. Man i hope they added real time injuries and make the injuries matter as well as coaching changes.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Blog: Screens and Lighting

new equipment looks nice, i just wonder how those knee braces are going to look under socks, i mean IOWA has pro-style socks and will cover those up

[countryboy]

ask MLB'10 The Show how much better a game can look due ot the lighting.

Exactly. EA does NOT allow you to get immersed in their games and they really don't show off the work they do on the graphics well.

Re: NCAA Football 11 Blog: Screens and Lighting

This might be the best sports gaming year ever...MLB 10 is spectacular and with NCAA, Madden, Tiger Woods, NBA Live, Fight Night and NHL...even NCAA Basketball is fun as heck...EA has really upped their game over the past year

Re: NCAA Football 11 Blog: Screens and Lighting

The game looks fantastic! I just got of work and was not expecting to get two new screens and a blog!

If you look closely it seems that we'll be able to choose what type of cleat color a player will wear. In the UT vs OSU screen all the Texas players are pretty much wearing the black and burnt orange Nike Vapors except for one of the linemen in the background. Pretty sweet if we can choose.

Graphics look nice, but Presentation is where I am concerned with NCAA football.

[statum71]

Impressed. Looking much better. Not that 10 was horrible but this is a huge improvement.

Now, when they first showed off the FIRST screen shot a week or so ago, I thought the game looked HOT but didn't want to get ahead of myself yet did say the screen shot looked pretty good (I forget my exact words).

However, with these new screen shots, I must say that the game looks HOT. My jaw nearly dropped when I seen them. I will say, though, that the screen shot from NCAA 10, on the page, is sorta comparable to the NCAA 11 shots they used on that same page.
Ironically, earlier today, I stopped in a Best Buy and just decided to play the NCAA 10 demo for the PS3, since I don't have the actual game anymore, and all I could think is how saturated the colors are in that game. I still like the game and it looks more vivid on the Bravia they use at the PS3 kiosk (I notice this on all the Bravias. I want a Bravia :| ) than on my Aqous at home. The colors REALLY jump out at u on a Bravia but anyway, it's ironic how much I was thinking about the color saturation while playing 10 before coming home and reading this article.

Oh, and I HOPE they use this new tech for Madden 11 but looking at those 2 screen shots of Madden 11, I don't think they are, unless they can add it in later.
