You couldn't customize players, the dynasty was garbage on the kickers looked like superheroes they were so big. I mean, I get that the games aren't living up to the hype, but let's not get out of control with the criticisms.[/quote] You're not listening. I didn't say it was "the best game". I clearly said it looked the best, and yes it does. The models have WAY more poly's which is simply a technical fact, the textures are far richer on those models and the lighting is sensible and not overdone like '09. '09 plays better yes, but it does not look better. [quote comment="26797"]Anybody who says ’07 on 360 was the best game is seriously on some medication.

It's not even progressive! No way is it better than NCAA '07. In fact, NCAA '07 looked better period, except for the player models. Player models are the only place '09 excels graphically. Everything else is trash. The textures and colors are all murky and dirty-looking. Nope. I'll be skipping NCAA '09. I bought '07 for $4 and it's an excellent game. The NCAA Team needs snap out of it and realize that they are going backwards just like the Madden Team. P.S. I played a night game of NCAA '09. My gawd... it looks terrible, lol! You gotta be kidding me.[/quote] what a turd[/quote] You mean your mom's breath? Yes, it does smell quite turdy.

And it's there. Mr. Nessler greets you with the Christmas intro. But down to business... I liked what I saw with the night game, at least on the field level. I don't know if the Horse Shoe is supposed to be like this or not, but I didn't see ANY actual lights. Nothing. I expected to see the big bulbs towering over the stadiums rim, but nothing was there! Now, like I said before, I have never been to Ohio States stadium, but here at Oregon, Autzen doesn't have a "Magical Lighting System" that just oozes from the sky... Although I'm sure ole Phil Knight could probably buy us somthing like that!! But seriously, Pasta... Can you explain this?[/quote] My boy and I were playing the demo at night (separately), but talking on the headset, and we said the same thing. WHERE ARE THE LIGHTS? So I've looked up some pictures via google, and there are NO LIGHTS!!! They must have them hidden, because you can't see them. I've been to Ohio State at least 5 times in the last 3 years and I don't remember big light poles.
