Re: ESPN Integration

NCAA Football 11 = Best game of the year. I dont even need to see more

*Facepalm*...I am sorry, but I soon as I saw that coment I can't help but envision mrMagic91 as the guy from those crazy-*** Staples "WOW...THAT'S A LOW PRICE" ads....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XlWjUOQ3D4&feature=PlayList&p=61EB7338A122A1C2&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=25

(no offense Magic91 as I would not know you if you were standing next to me)!

The one thing that I absolutely swear EA has nailed without failure for 10 years running now is the art of the pre-release hype machine! Every year is going to be the greatest NCAA / Madden OF ALL TIME...and every year like Pavlov's dogs we lap it up and salivate all over ourselves only to eventually find out that there is no steak coming...just a bell...even if this year's 'steak' smells like a juicy New York Strip from Ruth's Chris!

I am gonna have to have it in hand before I can join my man above in getting loco on the quality of this edition...

Just PLEASE do not include that damn "Big and Rich" song in ANY way shape or form!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UywQTmcR1iY
I am begging! I think I would be insane in a matter or days if I had to constantly hear them singing "yeah we're comin' to your sit-ay" - which I have started to hear as "yeah we're singin' and we're shi-tay" for the last few years...

Sorry that I didnt laugh at your little joke dude. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion. And if thats what you want to think then go ahead. I just have never seen so much detail in the NCAA series before. But Hey, thats what you think then thats you. And there is a new producer this year. I just think this will be the best sporting game of the year.

wouldnt that make the game immersing and more authentic? I'm a kool-aid drinker.

Re: ESPN Integration

Yet again, I s*** myself--this time for the presentation...

More and more, slowly getting better...

Re: NCAA Football 11 Blog: ESPN Integration

And even it is not what everybody expects it to be, I will surely buy it. Because Im a college athlete myself. Whats Xbox or PS3 without College football?

[vatechfan44]

Re: NCAA Football 11 Blog: ESPN Integration

Im now buying for sure, this adds so much realism to the game

Maybe Im different but I see right through hype. But this isnt Season Showdown, Team Builder, Dancing with the mascouts, WindSocks, Play commits, Mascout match ups, mini-games, Impact players, momentum bars, QB composure or any other gimmick they have stuffed in this game over the pass 5 or so years. Theirfinally adding the things that make a sports videogame franchise great. And for that I appaud them. Will it work like advertise is another story though.

Yeah but we have the right to call your saying it's "game of the year" before even playing it as overreactionary. NCAA B'Ball 10 had all the presentation, but the gameplay left alot to be desired. If they improve gameplay, good on them. But until you play it, it's always stupid to make proclamations like that.

Sure it does, especially with the horrible late half/game clock management and awful CPU play calling we could have the game of the century.

Ok, all joking aside it's cool that this FINALLY made it to the game, but seriously, overlays, theme songs, and ESPN Magazine adding to realism? I don't get it.

If there are major problems on the field you could have Musberger and Herbstreit in your living room calling all of your games and the ESPN integration won't help.

It's even better to see all of the things that are being worked on from a gameplay standpoint.

Well for let me restate my sentence. Its in the direction to being one of the best games of the year. Sorry if what I said offended anyone

Re: ESPN Integration

Another step in the right direction. Really encouraging to see the development team giving us what we want this year.

[AUChase]

It's been a while since I've been so optimistic about an NCAA football game pre-release.
