^^^^^ @ Imagine Fashion Idol. Ha!

Outstanding. Overreaction Sports at its finest.

I understand some of the gripes, but I still think the game looks great and improves on an already solid NCAA 11. There is still more info to come which I am also looking forward to.

What ever happened to stat banners? Seems like they've completely disappeared this console generation.

Why does the consecutive hit tackles look un-natural? The catch animations look too effortless, it seems like the receivers just turn using a animation, and the ball just lands in there hands, the receivers don't go for or react to the football. And it looks like the have replaced tumbleweed tackling with a shoulder dive now.

I agree one THOUSAND percent.

I miss the stat overlays right after a play from the old games.

Yes, I was mostly referring to presentation, but the gameplay didn't seem that different from 11, either. Sure there are some improvements, but nothing that made me jump up and say 'wow'.

I can agree with this, but the AI did look much smarter from what I could see, which to me is more important than a lot of the presentation gripes.

I am surprised that no Mizzou fans have chimed in yet with how bad their secondary is! lol, I can't wait to see their ratings but based on that vid they have some unaware corners (getting beat on that double move) and sloooooooow safeties (just getting burned on that post in video 3)

game looks great but was kinda disappointed to hear they only have one dread length this year...owell. cant wait

I don't get it when people are complaining about NCAA looking like it pays similar to last years game. I think that's a great thing. I thought last year was an execellent game besides zone and man defense, playaction, super jumping lineman and bad CPU AI. By the look of things they fixed all the issues from last year so what is the complaint here? You do know NBA 2K11 plays very similar to the previous versions of it's self and so does MLB the Show but no one cries about that.

I'm very happy with what I saw. I love all the defense improvements and the game plays really good even being 2 months for the release. They still have time to tweak the game so will everyone please just stop all the crying it's getting pretty annoying.

Good God those dreads are atrocious. Have they ever seen a college football player w/ dreads that long? No one asked for Polamalu. It would be fine if they only added one length, if it were a length of dreads that ONE player in college football actually has... Seriously... Show me ONE player in CFB w/ dreads that long...

ai still needs work...the play where the ball goes right by the linebacker, and the play in the first video on UF's field goal drive where the running back couldve taken outside for more yards or possible 6

Agreed I think 11 was the best on next gen. Miles ahead of 10. Although I don't think all of those issues have been addressed completely, I don't think 11 was that "unplayable". With a few tweaks 12 could be very enjoyable. Sure there is a lot I want added that isn't and stuff that is still evidently not fixed, but I am very pleased with the progressions the game is making.

My Biggest Gripe is what people expect on a year-to-year basis. EA has acknowledged the flaws in their current-gen engine and have conceded that in the next cycle of consoles, they will use real-time physics... and will try to get them in this-gen. So just go with it. Each year, they will try their best to improve on what they have. They can't just radically change the entire engine in one gaming cycle.

Regardless... the zone coverage looks good. That skinny post play is what SHOULD happen. The florida LB, even in real life, would rarely, if ever make that play. The problem I had with previous version of NCAA was that the coverage was so broken, that in order to stop the user from completing 80% of their passes, they had to make the CPU AI warp into unrealistic plays. So the fact that the guy was legitimately open and was rewarded for being open by the defense not making some super-human play is awesome.

I didn't see any of the leaping LBs and DEs from previous versions, which was one of my biggest pet peeves. It was almost a game-killer for me bc I was so sick of making the right reads and having the LB come out of nowhere or make a play he would never make.

I just hope the CPU AI is improved and there are broadcast cams. The dreads don't look good, but I could care less. Just play as realistic a game of football as you possibly can. I can't wait to run out of the pistol and see if the zone read is actually a viable and deadly play this year like it is for Oregon and so many other teams in real-life.

Just my .02.

I like how the guy was like "our roster guy is a full time gig working year around" when we have guys on here like Luvtotha9s who can make an incredible roster in 2 weeks

I agree with everything you said EXCEPT the skinny post thing. I am sorry but WATCH THE ZONE DEFENSE VIDEO that EA put out themselves, that route is supposed to be stopped this year. I don't know if you are one of those guys that just abuses that play online and thats why you are defending it now but, in the video (begnning of part 2) that LB should have defending that pass attempt. It went a foot away from his head.

Re: NCAA Football 12 Live Stream Available Now (If You Missed it, Videos Included)

Basically what you are telling me is that since man can't stop it in this game, and now even the new zone can't stop it, it is just an unstoppable play. Are you serious?

The defender is in zone coverage INSIDE shade of the slot the WHOLE play and the slot breaks his route INSIDE, right into the zone, and its still a completion. I know this is most peoples' whole offense in NCAA 11 but come on
