NCAA 12

Got it for PS3 and I am rather impressed with the improvements to the overall gameplay and presentation. As a Hokie though I am actually rather pissed about the entrance, no skipper, and generic band animations (this last one is totally on Tech, Weaver, and Beamer- gotta answer those EA Sports offers and phone calls!!!). It seems as though last year's generic entrance was more 'authentic' to the feel of Lane shaking to Enter Sandman. BUT I get it that the lead designer is a Free Shoes U homer and grad so most other ACC teams get screwed over, particularly VT on anything to do with authentic gameday atmosphere for the ACCCG win last December. Not to quote Miami or UVA fans but even a few of them on the OS Boards and EA Boards all bitched about VT's entrance and atmosphere- pretty cool to hear rivals saying that it should be louder in the game cause it is one of the toughest places to win a road game in College Football.

Overall impressed but tweaks need to be made. Love the new zone coverage though- you have to anticipate receiver breaks and defense reading your offense now. Plus goodbye to dumping the ball into the flats and gaining huge yards. Like in an actual game (even HS) defenses are too fast for that to work for huge gains all the time.

BTW- anyone interested in some games on PS3 let me know- duffmanhokie1568 (PSN Handle). Don't usually do the online dynasties cause I download rosters from Gatorbait and Buckeye02 over at Gaming Tailgate/Operation Sports. Great rosters if you want usually (minus VT- bad year I guess cause I had to do a ton of work to the roster with ratings and equipment upgrades). There is a 360 community roster as well from VT Fan CaRsOnS (I think that's the handle...its over at www.operationsports.com- just check the '360 Community Rosters' under their NCAA '12 roster forums). Good Gaming!
