NCAA 07 FOOTBALL

IF YOU LIKE COLLEGE FOOTBALL THEN YOULL LOVE NCAA 2007. EA SPORTS CONTINUE TO GET BETTER EVERY YEAR. ALSO THE SCREENSHOTS LOOK AWSOME. THIS IS A MUST HAVE GAME FOR THE PS3

Missing something

The graphics are ausome. But for the 360 the game did not have any spring drills or create-a-team features. Instead the spring drills were replaced with boring mini-games. I think it might have spring drills on the other consoles but do some snooping before you buy. If you never were a big fan of spring drills or create-a-team then the game is perfect. I have seen the game on both the 360 and the original Xbox and their is a MAJOR difference. I give this game a 3.75 out of 5 because I miss my spring drills

Late NCAA CFB 07 review

I have been playing this game ever since I got my 360 at the start of the year after I traded in my X-Box with the college football copy for that platform. At the time, NCAA CFB 08 was just thirty bucks so I decided to give this a try. I do regret that decision (buying the game not the console) because it is missing a few features but overall, it is still a good game. I am not able to accurately evaulate the graphics of this game because I only have SDTV hooked up to my 360 at this point. But the 480p grahpics still do look pretty good compared to the 720p resoultion that I have seen at Best Buy and Target. This game in addition to Gears of War convinced me that it is unnecessary to acquire a HDTV at this point. Thank you so much EA and Epic! I still see the same annoyances that are seen in the previous gen games such as not being able to keep yourself from running out of bounds when you are lined up on the hashmarks on either side. NCAA CFB 08 is supposed to have a new engine so we will see about that. Other than that, the controls respond very well to what you want to do. I like being able to tell my LBs whether to go on an all out blitz or have either OLB (if not both) blitz. I do not recall seeing this ability with the X-Box version. But now enough of the good stuff... I was very disappointed to see that I could not customize my playbook like I was able to do with the X-Box version. This might not seem like a big deal to some people but it really bothered me in a big way. I do not own a copy of the NCAA CFB 07 stragety guide (will be sure to do for 08) so I am not able to view which formations a specific team used and use their playbook instead of your team's default playbook. This meant I had to go into practice mode and look at like the majority of the 119 Division I-A team playbooks in addition to the seven or so genric playbooks. That was very time consuming and at times I got bored with the playbook I was using so I decided to use a different playbook. EA Sports, I want that ability to customize my playbook back in NCAA CFB 08! I did enjoy Campus Legend in the X-Box version but I was disappointed to find out that no such thing existed (won't be a problem with 08). Having played the series ever since the 1998 version on the Playstation 1, I realized it wasn't a big deal because I love to play football games anyway. There were no Division I-AA teams included and that was a disappointment to me. I can only imagine how many upset gamers were from I-AA campuses. And what's up with having to download alternative uniforms from X-Box Live? I know they are free but I mean c'mon that is a waste of time. Why can't we update rosters especially after seeing Bomar Rhett still on the OU roster after he was booted from the team before the season even started? At least you got rid of the mascot football game...that is something to be applauded. I only see the actual football stadiums from mostly BCS conference schools. A couple of non-BCS conference schools didn't have this problem because those teams play in NFL stadiums. Also what angered me was you couldn't create your own school as well. Now this explains why Wal-Mart dropped the price of this game to $29.99 at that time. I am expecting MAJOR improvement for the 08 season and I want to put EA Sports on notice that the 08 edition is the one that they cannot screw up on. If that happens, I will not buy another football game from those greedy bastards. (EA Sports also owns the exclusive rights to college football, NFL, and Arena Football. No word on whether or not flag football is next).

I don't think ea tries anymore.

why am i still playing the same game from last year and the year before? New features are cool but this games is OVERDUE compared to the former 2k series. One day 2k needs to come back and bring that innovation back.

Not a Masterpiece

EA Sports has never dissapointed, when it comes to NCAA Football, but this is first year, where I wished that I had rented the game first before purchasing the game. The graphics on the game are unbelievable. I can't say the samething thing about the gameplay or other aspects. My big three dissapointments are: 1. No formation subs 2. No editing of player appearance/equipment 3. Missing little features from older versions One the great things about football is the different matchups that you can expect week to week. All true football gamers love to scheme against their opponents by setting up different subs for different formations. You can't do it this year. The only subs allowed are if your guys get tired or if you mass substitute. Not very beneficial if you have a deep bench and you watch to exploit the other teams weaknesses. I've always loved that you can edit player equipment and appearance (i.e. helmets, gloves, etc). You can't do it for the XBOX 360. If they wanted this next gen game to feel more realistic, they should've kept this feature in. One thing I loved about the old NCAA Football versions was the opening coin toss. You got to see your captains walk up to midfield. Also, you don't get to see upclose celebrations after a big play anymore. In my opinion, I wished that EA would've waited a little longer to release this year's version for the XBOX 360. I've been playing this game, since they first released it, and I hate to say that I am dissapointed. I just hope that Madden won't be as dissapointing.

What was EA thinking?

What were the people at EA thinking when they distributed this game? We havwe waited a year for some type of football other than the lackluster Madden that was released with the system, and what type of reward do we get, none. The game looks wonderful, playing on the other hand well lets just say that they just threw the game together. I cannot put people into formations that I need them in, lets just say if I have two good running backs, and I want to put them in different formations to give them a rest between different plays, I can't, all I can do is mass sub players, and really I don't want to do that. If they were looking to loose a customer base, fine, that may be exactly what they have done here. Come on guys just because I have a "next-gen" system don't forget about me and the millions of others that have them also. I myself am hurt that Ea would put out absolute CRAP like this, and I fell for the hype, in hope that they would sdistribute something of substance. But I geuss that Madden, and the other systems that are coming out are more important than your existing fan base currently on the 360. All in all just a "game" that's not in there.
