NCAA Football 08 Reviews
I'm the Grandma so I basically got the review word of mouth: "Gramma, thanks for the game, it was awesome."
He loves sports games but he has fun on this game because it lets him pick classes and take exams. It's a lot more than just sports, it has many college activities to do. [[ASIN:B000P0TCDQ NCAA Football 08]. I bought this for my 11 year old son for Christmas. A video game that lets them use their brain. I also bought Madden 08.
Sack the QB, run a big play, and the momentum goes in your favor and your team will be playing better. You have to do well in the drills and the better you do, the better the school that will offer you a scholarship. Lose that momentum and you're more likely to fumble or to drop a pass. There are many improvements to the gameplay which make it more enjoyable, such as being able to see which audible you're calling during the game and more options to do during the off-season.
Not so in this game, you do have to mix up the play calling and depending on your settings, the AI will shut down your offense. They've added (atleast since the 2005 edition) an option of creating your own player and getting him through college. The AI is also "smarter" as in previous editions, there was always one or two plays you could call and you were sure to get big yardage every time. As I said, the "Big play" part of the game is gone. However, unless I am wrong, they have taken out the play mode where you got to play the biggest plays in history; such as doug Flutie's Hail Mary in the last seconds of the game agains Miami. This is Auburn, not some formerly 1AA team whom nobody has ever heard of.
As a fan of this series of titles, I looked forward to playing the latest edition. And as for Auburn.are we ever going to have the real Auburn fight song in the game or not. There are some other minor things but there will never be a perfect game. Yes, the season is over and we're in the bowl games but the good thing about this game is that you aren't confined to one season, you can play for as long as you want. Also, the more successful you are, the more influence you'll have over your star players leaving early or staying on for another year. The academics are not all that challenging and you can choose from pretty much any subject, including college football. These were always fun to play.
A good aspect is the "momentum" factor. Part of being a player is balancing academics, social and practice. Some of the aspects of game don't make sense. I've played 5 seasons with Auburn and have won 4 Heismans with Wide Receivers and not the QB's, maybe they've tweaked the Heisman voting a bit too much. The recruiting aspect is also much improved. Overall, this is a much improved version of the NCAA Football game series. Some downsides: .
This is interesting but at the end of the day I find myself playing dynasty more than anything else. Okay, a petty gripe but come on. The last one I bought was 2005. I thought surely, I'd get to play Boise State against Oklahoma from last year but nope. In order to even compete for the Heisman, you are forced to run up the score, which I don't like.
They've done it again. Another great NCAA football game from the producers of the greatest sports games in the industry.
in fact it seems like EA subsituted a few features with an existing platform, slapped some stupid additions to it and took it to the bank. not sure if it is just my console, but this game has been VERY frustrating in that it is consistently freezing up (no problems with Madden '08, though) and eventually forcing me to restart a game i was more than 3/4 of the way through on. to date, i would have to say that NCAA Football 2006 is still my favorite version.
more evidence that they just slapped a few features and packaged to sell. EA even managed to take off the cool music tracks. this happens consistently and i think i am on the verge of sending it back to EA for a full refund. overall, i am not very impressed with the game.
not much thought went into this one.
