Picked this up and got a chance to play it for a bit last night. So far I really dig it. The new play-calling interface takes some getting used to, however. Campus Legend mode is fun as hell. Definitely good enough to keep me footballed up until Madden hits the streets.

It has nothing to do with this thread, but just reminded me that I could have played with Sexy Rexy before he hit got to a level of football he couldn't beat.

Gotta say, I was a huge Zabransky fanboy for that game against OU. Love the Statue of Liberty.

If anyone has a 360 data transfer kit, fully named rosters are out.

Buy a 64 Mb memory card, buy the transfer kit below, download rosters, load them to memory card, load into the game, and almost everyone is named correctly. It's a little expensive, but it adds to the immersion factor with the announcers calling everyone by name instead of QB#10.

NCAA 08: 8.0 Graphics
Thanks to new animations, the game looks much better, but some of the old glitches are still present in this year's game.

All-Pro Football: 7.5 Graphics
The animations save the day and are the bright spot for All-Pro's visuals. But the field textures are terrible and the game doesn't look as clean or vibrant as the competition.


LOL? NCAA's field texture is non-existent. The graphics pretty much don't exist and there are glitches, yet it still scores above average. I haven't played APF2k8, but every screen shot I've seen looks better than NCAA 08's. There's your IGN review [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Since I'm in the dominate the second-hardest, get pissed at the hardest difficulty level group like a lot of players on this and Madden it's hard to find a good challenge. Starting with crappy programs is good because you lose some games early on but you get to be pretty good after a few seasons and dominant in the fourth or so because your winning above your talent level stars bringing better talent and it cycles.

Something I really enjoy doing on the NCAA games is playing a dynasty mode as a top team, but playing against them every week. See if you can get them to go 0-11. Allow the game to make all personnel and coaching decisions and sim recruiting and scheduling. It's pretty damn tough when playing as the preseason cupcakes and you still get the big games when you play as a big name rival.
