    Just put in NCAA 11

    I havent played NCAA in a very long time and decided to throw it in today.. After playing a game I forgot how great of an experience the game is. Ive played Madden 12 and don't find it that fun at all. To me NCAA 11 is one of the best football games ive ever played.

    I havent been on these part of the forums for a while and yes Ive read NCAA 12s review but also read a lot of complaint on the impressions forum a while back. After some time with it, Im wondering if you guys find NCAA 12 to be a better game then 11.

    11 had a broken dynasty mode, which ended up having me sell it pretty fast. Every team is garbage three years down the road.

    12 is a mix bag, honestly if you play it, I just wouldn't go on these forums and you would enjoy it 20x more, there are bugs that I see that I wouldn't of noticed if people weren't pointing them out.

      '11 was one of the worst football games I've ever played. I'm sure any defensive minded player would agree with this. Zone was 100% broken.

        Still, the overall package of 11 is more polished than 12. Both have its faults, depends on what you can live with.

          You can live with not being able to play zone? That's pretty huge.

              If by zone you mean super lbs and psychic dbs, yes, I can live without it. Bad and cheap are two different things.

                The Linebackers in 12 are superhuman and it f**ks me up cause I love throwing over the middle.

                  I simply don't have that problem. I have yet to see a serious "super LB" problem in '12. 09-11 played like no other game in NCAA/Madden history.

                  No defense = no fun.

                    Other than better zone, custom conferences, and coaching carousel I thought '11 was better in every way...12 felt like a step backwards

                      You have NEVER seen a super LB? I find that almost impossible? Come on...just because you like an unrealistic game where the QB goes 8-18 and your only option is to run 45 times doesn't mean it isn't broken.

                      There needs to be a balance.

                        And BTW, true life NCAA football is an offensive minded game. It is why you see games all the time like the 36-35 KSU Baylor game today, or the 42-38 Arkansas win. The 17-13 games in college are fairly rare actually...

                        Madden, IMO, should be the defensive game, because that is what the NFL is all about.

                          You should really actually look at scores before pulling a couple of examples that fit what you want. Just yesterday alone: 24-10, 16-10, 19-16, 17-10, 17-13, 10-7, 16-13, 21-20, 23-3. I wouldn't call any of those offensive-minded.

                          And I don't see Super LB's much if at all. A lot of what people want to call super LB is them throwing the ball right in the path of the LB and he knocks it down, but because they hear people moan about super LB all the time, they assume no LB can play defense and therefore they are seeing something that shouldn't be happening. They do happen, but nowhere near as often as people want to think.

                          And on the topic of NCAA 11: I played 3 games, never touched it again, and later traded it in. I played that many games on 12 in the first day alone. Sure, 12 needs work, but 11 just didn't play well.

                              Still playing '11 and having fun, especially w/ gameplay roster edits. Love not having to worry about a freeze in gameplay, etc. Also, started using the Player Lock cam on D and that has opened up a whole new world for me in this game. Plus, there's always Playmakers Alumni Rosters
