NCAA Football 09:
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH man this is the game of the century son!!!!!!!!! The realism is the best feature, plus I advise people to invest in the HDMI cable for your xbox to go along with your HDMI ready TV. The game looks so real and the feel is uncomparible with previous years of NCAA (EA college football). I am a BIG fan of the college football series from EA sports. EA needs to add more features in thier next years, bring back everything about college football including the momentum meter.
Avoid this game like the plague:
If you like college football, or any aspect of college football avoid this game. Watch a tape of a game from last century with your favorite team. It will be time better spent. The game fails on simple logic of the speed to two players, with often the significantly slower player winning a footrace. With proper movement, you can return about 50% of the kickoffs for TDs. If you play, stick to the run, or sim the games and enjoy the recruiting function.
Its still just OKAY.:
The game is still just ok. It has never been the same since the transition from NCAA football 07 on xbox to xbox 360. The controls changed on 360, the recruiting changed and got so ridiculous that its near impossible to get the recruit you want, even if he has your school as his number 1 pick of schools. When in legend mode you cant even recruit once again......cant play defense now, cant even control the rest of ur team when the ball is our of ur players hands! The game is way harder.......which is good,... more info
Better than Madden 09:
This is simply the best football game out there. The most teams in a game, which makes the game so easy to adapt to. Madden has fallen to Ncaa franchise many years before the 2009 games came out, and it doesn't even come close this year. The broken tackles are actually realistic. The only thing is that some catches/interceptions aren't realistic but they make up for each other.
