    The new version of TeamBuilder has launched for NCAA Football 14. Unfortunately it contains no new features but it does provide an opportunity to start creating teams - and those crafted in prior years continue to carry over - and examine all the team rosters and complete player ratings. This is the fourth straight year then that TeamBuilder has gone largely untouched by EA Sports. Since debuting in NCAA Football 10 the only things updated each year have been the stadium renovations, fiel...

    The NCAA Football 14 demo released on Tuesday and for the most part reaction has been fairly positive. A notably weak marketing campaign for the game may have actually resulted in those who follow developments intently finding themselves pleasantly surprised by the impact of various enhancements and additions made this year. The new Coordinator camera angle seems to be a big hit as well. Whether it's enough after a few years of disappointing efforts is the question. Vote in the poll below...
  • Learning About NCAA Football 14 Through CPU vs CPU Gameplay

    There is probably no better way to discover how the CPU plays in a sports game than letting two AI controlled teams go head-to-head and thus avoiding any user influence. Doing so obviously does not provide much insight into how a game will perform in a head-to-head pairing but instead is useful for learning where there may be holes in the AI primarily relating to single player. The first game that was set up and recorded was a fantastic example of the value that comes with examining a CPU...

  • NCAA Football 14 Season Mode Introduced

    EA Sports today for the first time publicly discussed Season mode in NCAA Football 14 via developer blog posting. It's no wonder the news comes just hours before the demo release and the week after E3 given there isn't a whole lot to say about it. As anyone would expect the mode strips out all the management necessities that make up Dynasty mode. Rather than needing to assign tasks to the CPU and have them simmed they'll just be completely absent from the picture with the only focus being...

    Though EA waffled on allowing video at their booth throughout E3 a number of looks at the various current-gen games made their way out. Here are the off-screen gameplay videos for Madden NFL 25, FIFA 14, NCAA Football 14, and also a couple that trickled out for PES 2014 along with a few glimpses at next-gen Madden and FIFA.

    The demo for NCAA Football 14 is set to release on June 18 for both the Xbox 360 and PS3. No details besides the date have been provided so the structure of the demo and teams included remain unknown for the time being. The demos for recent iterations in the series have included multiple match-ups (last year six teams involved) along with the ability to unlock Nike Pro Combat jerseys for use in the retail version. The Hesiman Challenge was also featured last year and with a big focus for ...
