Re: NCAA Football 12 Demo Available Now, Post Your Impressions Here (360, PS3)

Ok, played 5 games, all on Heisman. I'll go ahead and skip to the bottom line: This is a DAMN GOOD game that is improved in just about every area. Plays a really good game of football on Heisman without feeling cheated at all. Very impressive.

Pros:
--CPU RB AI is light years ahead of any previous NCAA game. It is incredible how much better the CPU RBs make cuts, etc.
--Zone defense much improved.
--Pass rush and LBs shooting gaps much improved. Very impressive pass rush, even on Heisman.
--Shotgun running is much improved, again...even on Heisman.
--The new tackling engine and the lack of suction is instantly noticeable and very imrpessive all the way around.

Cons:
--still not seeing many penalties. Pass Interference still nonexistent.
--CPU QB holds the ball way too long without either a. throwing the ball away or b. scrambling. No College QB worth his salt is going to hold the ball 7-8 seconds without getting rid of it.
--Too many all out/jailbreak blitzes by the CPU. This is a big reason for the Humans thrashing the CPU when the CPU keeps zero blitzing and leaving defenders one on one or even leaving a WR wide open. Blitzing is fine. Alll out blitzing is not.
--A few too many instances of my entire Defensive line/Front seven getting pancaked simultaneously by the CPU. Typical on Heisman, but needs to be toned down regardless.

On a side note, Oregon refuses to run out of Shotgun in this Demo. I swear they threw 95% of the time.
