    Even if he is, not liking this game has nothing to do with whether or not he's going to like NCAA 10. The gameplay is and has always been different.

    I just downloaded the demo and I think that whoever's decision it was to make the quarters 1 minute made a very stupid decision. I did not get a good feel of the game. I would rather play just one 4 minute quarter.

    they purposely made the 1 min quarters to annoy people into pre-ordering their game. another scumbag move.

    I've played the 5 min demo 5 times and I've got a sack a game at least (all user) and a **** load of knockdowns and duck throws (2 of which I've picked off). Hines Ward is a ****ing beast though. Dude grabs balls I'm all set to user pick.

    I'm not good with the blitz at all. I've got zero idea how to get it working. They throw to the one spot I have no one guarding. The CPU runs through my defenders and my guys don't do ****. But I can beat the blitz easy on offense. I've got a system set up and good hot route combos. CB blitz are pwned by me.

    The 5 min demo is night and day compared to the one min demo. The weather clearly has a major effect on the game. Snowy conditions **** everything up.

    Fitz is a beast, but the dude fumbles like crazy... Mr. Buckeye is quite good too. DRC is all over the field, Berry is a good pass rusher, and Adrian rocks WR/TE who are dumb enough to cross his path. Arizona is going to be a beast. You're going to crush fools. Unfortunately my Raiders are go to trash you in the franchise league. And we're only getting better.

    Dude, when are you online? I've played the demos a bunch but you're always off.

    im not online with my xbox right now. i just moved and im stealing internet from my neighors wireless network. they're too dumb to password protect it.

    my knockdown:sack ratio is prolly around 8:1 per game. I love getting picks on duck passes, but LBs tend to drop them when they are right in their paws.

    Willie Parker just took a 50 yard WC counter up the middle for a TD... Dude this game is SWEET. WTF are the steelers oline rated for blocking? They're killing zona's d-line and giving me monster holes.

    Steelers are sick as hell.

    ETA: It may not be Pitt, but there playbook. Trying to run with Arizona's PB is harder than with Pitts. I used Arizona and Pitt's playbook and I dominated the run game.

    Outside slant route out of 5 WR with Breaston is beastly. The guy catches it over the shoulder and always breaks a tackle. Kurt Warner is hella accurate and puts Romo and Manning to shame. Playing 5 min qt has given me some idea as to how to play real DF. I'm killing the cpu.

    Ok now i feel really stupid, but im trying to download the demo from gamestop. I log onto Xbox Live and it says go to the Marketplace Blade? Im guessing that means the Game Marketplace, but i don't see a Redeem Code in there. I also tried clicking "y" and going to the Marketplace but don't see a Redeem Code thing in there either. Can someone tell me where im suppose to go?

    the easy way to do it is to hit the Xbox button (the green one in the middle of the joystick) and scroll left. I believe you'll see it if you scroll left one time. It is in the same section as Active Downloads.

    Ok now this is just pissing me off. I was downloading the demo and i lost my internet connection. When i restarted and went to active downloads it said pending (i was at about 60%), i left it for about 30 minutes and it never changed off pending. So i canceled it and now when i go to download it again it says the Redeem Code is invalid. Does anyone know what i can do, im sure if i bring it to gamestop they will say i can't get a new one. I tried the ea support site on the card but i couldnt find anything.

    maybe try downloading the regular demo because it may switch to the other one seeing you redeemed the code..??

    I think that may work

    Thank you Ian and co. This game is awesome as opposed to NCAA 10, or should I say NCAA 07?

    Hmm i tried that but it downloaded the original 1 minute quarter ones. I guess im going to have to try and go back to gamestop and hope they give me another.

    On a side note, i was really impressed with the 1 minute quarter demo. The game plays so much better. Brandon Jacobs is a freakin beast to tackle and Hakeem Nicks caught everything. He had 6 catches for 118 yards in the demo. I also love laying WRs out with the safeties, but the only thing i didn't like is that they always go for the hit when you hit "Y", but isn't that the interception button also?

    Just read on another site from some dude that already has it (its reliable), that they took out training camp or mini camp whatever you'd call it completely this year.

    So yeah there goes that feature ready to make an appearance as a 'NEW' feature down the line....

    BTW...MOR? Someone else has it before you?!?!?! WTH?

    i havent heard that there's legit leaks out there yet. Lot's of fakers. But i'll see what i can dig up. I'm not saying your guy is lying, I'm just saying it hasn't hit the scene yet. If you're guy is for real, then i give it a few hours before it lands in the hands of the likes of me.

    Dolphins playbook has 12 WC plays and 2 formations. WC normal and WC trips. There's a few passing plays and what not. No reverses or any plays without auto motion (Carolina WC PB has some no auto motion and what we should of had too).

    12 WC plays = awesome. No reverses = not so awesome. I was looking forward to doing a double reverse involving Ronnie, Ricky, and Teddy Ginn.

    Can we finally mod playbooks? I'm guessing no.

    This has all the playbooks. NE and RnG are very good. Ours isn't bad by any means (especially if you're using Tenn or Miami). I heard the lions have a good one too, but I haven't checked it out.

    no custom PB from what I know... Lame.

    Is it me or the timing on the fumble minigame inconsistent?

    i.e the button icons either change too quickly or sometimes not at all.

    Also the Adaptive AI takes a while to actually adapt.

    i think the fumble mini game is trash all around. I can't win one to save my life... I need a ****ing turbo controller or something, it's ridiculous. I stopped trying because I'm going to **** my controller up.
