NCAA Football 10 Demo Impressions
Having played the full game at E3, which was probably built off a different and slightly more recent build, it makes it difficult to evaluate the demo. There are some things that seemed better at E3, yet there are also some things that seem better in the demo. So I'm not sure exactly how valid some of my impressions can be as they relate to the final build. Because of that I won't go into much detail on those things. Continue on to read some general thoughts on the game/demo and check out...

NCAA Football 10 Demo Now Available
The demo for NCAA Football 10 is now out on the XBL Marketplace and will go up with the PSN update this afternoon. Featured is a National Championship rematch of the Florida Gators against the Oklahoma Sooners with two minute quarters. The difficulty level is adjustable which is probably a factor in its large size of 1.57 GB. Leave your thoughts and impressions of the demo in the comments! I'll get some videos to go up this evening and maybe some observations based on what may be differen...

NCAA Football 10 Issues Being Addressed
While at E3 I was satisfied after my time with NCAA Football 10. You can read back through my impressions if you haven't already, but basically the game has a similar feel but with numerous additions and improvements from last year that become more evident the more it is played. Unfortunately after I got back all that was soon overshadowed by news of the rosters being in terrible shape and the DLC "boosts" for dynasty that would also affect Online Franchise. First on the topic of the rost...

NCAA Football 10 Demo This Week
A handful of postings on Twitter confirm that the NCAA Football 10 demo is expected to be out later this week. In all likelihood that means on Thursday we'll be getting the demo on the 360 in the early AM and on the PS3 in the afternoon. I suspect that this demo will do little to change the negativity surrounding the game right now. Most of the improvements are subtle and overall the game feels an awful lot like 09. In a demo with abbreviated quarters those improvements will be less likel...

NCAA Football 10 Charging for Dynasty Boosts
Brian Ekberg of Gamespot has received a beta copy of NCAA Football 10 and is posting content as well as answering questions about the game. You can visit here and add questions of your own. Alarmingly he had this to say earlier today which is gone into more detail in this posting: I haven't dipped that far into dynasty mode yet but it looks very simliar to previous years. That said, there is one significant change: You can add an additional pipeline state by paying for it. With real money (...

NCAA Football Heading Down Generic Path
Player names and how they are dealt with in EA Sports NCAA Football series has always been a sensitive subject. While there has been discussion over the years to reach agreement with the NCAA to allow names in that has not come to fruition. The last couple versions of NCAA Football have brought about some new community based features such as the EA Locker for roster sharing and Teambuilder. The Sam Keller lawsuit may or may not directly affect what happens with NCAA Football but it does seem...

E3: NCAA Football 10 Impressions
During the first day of E3 I played NCAA Football 10 on the default Varsity difficulty. I made the statement in my brief recap that the game had a very similar feel to 09 and it seems people ran with that as though it meant it wasn't changed or improved which is not the case. The differences are just not as obvious as the ones Madden received. After bumping it up to All-American the improvements made to the game became more evident. The adaptive AI has a strong presence and I'll describe ...
