NCAA College Football 2006

TRR · 07-12-2005, 07:44 PM

I picked mine up last night. I am loving the "Race for the Heisman" feature, but I can't stop anybody on D.

What does everyone else think of the game? I was hoping the College game would have the vision passing so I could get a leg up on that for when Madden 06 comes out.

Desmond Howard on the cover?

I think the first intro video I saw last year was fricking Tennescared. I nearly turned the PS2 off and threw the disc out the window.

UTEP on NCAA 2004 was by far the best, with the band blaring "She'll be coming round the mountain"...

The faster speed of the game is a nice improvement and the run blocking is much improved which is nice but way too easy for the better rated RB's to break tackles. Overall all it is great as always from EA but the ease of breaking tackles leads to a crazy amount of 50+ yard TD scampers. That makes it exciting but not realistic.

It reminds me a lot of Madden 2004. It's a jailbreak on offense.

The first game I played, my QB threw for 400+ yards, and about 4 TD's. That's not counting the 100+ I rushed for with a couple of TD's. And that was on Varsity. Bad thing is, the opposing QB threw for more than I did.

In the Race For the Heisman mode my created RB ran for 899 yards in my first game...I had a little shake in my day but I wasn't even that good in my own mind.

LOL! Yeah that's ridiculous. I'm finding that the option is close to unstoppable. Madden 05 really stepped up the D, and cut out all the completed triple covered bombs, 900 yard rushing days, and Vick running for a 1,000 on you from the QB position in one game.

Obviously NCAA hasn't went that route yet.

The most absurd PC football single game I ever played was in the mid 90's. I returned the opening kickoff for a TD. Kicked to them, 3 and out. They punted and I ran it in for a TD. That was the whole game except for the two or three INTs I returned for TDs. I played 5m quarters and the score was ~140 to 0. I think that was the last time I played that game.

It wasn't long after that football games started making the cpu's slower players faster than your guys. I always loved it when my 98 speed wideout gets caught by an 80 speed LB. That's realistic. Instead of making the AI cheat how about making it learn that I'm running that curl play every other down?
