NCAA 14 is here! Post your experience and thoughts.
Well, the early download is available to the people who bought the early pass thing. PS3 had some issues with it not being available in the PS Store (EA's fault), but its up now. If any of you are getting it early, let us know.

Best version of the game EVER. The dynasty mode offline game is a much better experience. No more player merging, the latest version of the new physics engine is GREAT. The announcing has tons of new dialog. The Nissan Preshow is cool. The halftime show isn't bad at all. Really enjoying this game, getting the hang of the totally new recuiting. ALL IT NEEDS ARE DECENT ROSTERS!!!!!

The Gamestops in Tempe did not have a midnight release, so I went to work for a few hours this morning, told the boss that I "felt sick" around 10 am (coincidentally when Gamestop opens its doors), now I'm home doing the ASU rosters. I will complete ASU's roster by the end of the day....ratings, equipment, everything. Peace.

If anyone wants to play an online un-ranked game, let me know here. It gets old playing the CPU, and my online dynasties don't start for about another month or so, plus, the online ranked world is filled with more cheese than a Pizza Hut stuffed crust.

NCAA Impressions.....
First off, if you didn't like NCAA 12 and 13, then you wont like this game.
The Good
Offense - Offensive play-books are fantastic. Every type of offensive style is unique and it feels distinct. Almost all of the plays work, and they work really well when called against the appropriate defense. The running game is great out of spread formations, and juke moves work really well.
Defense - They added 3-4 multiple, and 4-3 multiple, plus they added a few new plays to each formation. Defensive line play is great. Good pass rushers are tough to block, and you can get a good rush with just four linemen.
The bad
Offense - Read option is way overpowered, and the o-linemen are like heat seeking missiles when looking for blocks in the secondary. The infinity engine looks like shit at times, almost cartoon-like.
Defense - Playing defense is fuckin' hard this year. You have to set the gameplay settings, hot route this guy, hot route that guy, put a spy on, reblitz, etc. just to get decent gameplay.
The ugly
Offense - Nothing ugly on offense. This game was made for users to score points, and to score points often. They need to patch the no huddle in user v CPU games. Users cant even call their play before the ball is snapped 90% of the time.How EA missed this up is beyond my fancy.
Defense - Ball hawk has been toned-down to the point where it doesn't even exists. Last year, it might have been a tad-bit over-powerd, but in typical EA fashion, they nerfed the fuck out of it this year. I dont understand why EA would take this feature away this year with the over-powered offenses and all. Also, there are WAY too many broken tackles by guys who shouldn't be breaking tackles. When a QB bull-rushes over a defensive end, you know that shit is silly.
Overall, the game is so specialized now, that the casual gamer will not enjoy this game. You have to be a wizard on the sticks to play defense, and you pretty much have to have a masters degree in defensive schemes to even slow down a decent user player. If you want to have fun with this game, get yourself in an online dynasty, or in tournaments. The days of putting in the game on the weekend, locking the doors, closing the shades, and completing 4 seasons in your offline dynasty before work starts on Monday, are over.
On a scale of 0-100, I would give this game an 80. It's still really fun, but EA still doesn't know what the hell they are doing. For every good thing that they do to this game, two bad things are created...its like they do it on purpose. Lastly, I heard today that EA will now be charging $80 for their games for the next generation consoles. You got to be kidding, right?

My buddy just did his video review of the game. If you can get around his monotone voice, it's a really good watch. It's pretty much my review of the game that I did last week, but more articulate.
