[snowmane61]

On RTG mode play on heisman let's see how fast you get to 99 overall

[darkfire1211]

@snowmane61 whats so good about heisman?

[phatblack59]

I love ncaa 12. But for ncaa 13 i think they need to focus on the small stuff. Like the sideline chains. Or whenever your Making a big play your sideline goes insane. And its cool that you can customoze your coach but in gameplay the coach is nowhere to be seen exept at the end of the game when the coaches give each outher handshakes. And also for teambuilder.....MORE PANTS!!!!!

[CustomTrons2011]

What moron put dreads on Lamichael James..

[Whalerweave]

I enjoy playing ncaa, I've been playing it almost non-stop for the past month or so but i've noticed some really bad issues with it. Such as in man coverage when you throw to a corner route under a streak and the guy covering the guy on the streak turns around on a dime and knocks/INT it down. Another thing is how on every running play the defensive linemen throw around my O line like they are a bunch of peewee football players. It's stuff like that i've notice when playing this game that bug me

[13alexcool]

Look, it's a great game but what idiots doesn't put the dreadlocks on Denard Robinson??????

Why the fuck they have they positinon thn, they number

[The2010AMG]

whats better madden 12 or ncaa 12 ?

[futuredoc2020]

@The2010AMG I'd say that NCAA is better but it depends if you like college or NFL football more.

[Fred3209]

@futuredoc2020 in my opinion i like college ball better, due to the fact that that college players have something to play for and NFL players really dont, they play for the paycheck

[xEnigmatik360Mvz]

[MrLukeBarry1234]

If you buy this game in the USA will it be compatible in an European ps3?

[troflewafflelol]

hey everyone i was wondering what i should get madden or NCAA

[JasonCsonic]

@troflewafflelol NCAA all the way

[BGuILtY718]

I don't really understand why familiar feel is a negative thing. familiar is always good.

[USCTrojansQB13]

Familiar feeling he just said that was a good think. How is that bad? Ign is fucking retarded.

[TwistedSickBitch]

ITS ALL ABOUT MIZZOU

[iGame4Days]

Kansas!!!! 3D Grass? lol

[Gnocchist]

LOL Georgia Bulldogs 8 chins

[KWelch60]

MISOURI BABY!

[MrDerrick91]

Wow my first time looking at this... If madden wants to get better as a game then they need to copy the gameplay and visuals from ncaa because this is what madden 12 should look like. Just saying, but madden is still cool.

[imablueelephant]

PENIS

[ScrewLSU]

@emaster97 thanks man

[TheNathandrake123]

Deserves a 10.0 or 9.5 at least war eagle!!!!!!

[inkikyo76]

its sad how they always talk about other franchises such as this rehashing stuff, yet they never mention that on their COD reviews.

Cmon ign, you're better than gamespot

[cba577]

Bet you he only likes Missou because of chase daniels.

[ScrewLSU]

@IGNentertainment Hey I have never noticed this before when I buy the new NCAA Football game of every year, but is the game 1 season behind for example: NCAA Football 12 takes place in the 2010-2011 season, the same season when Auburn Won the BCS NC, right?, so the game is Named a year ahead of the actually season year, right?

[emaster97]

@ScrewLSU thats how its always been thats why guys who are on the cover are usually always in the pros

[UKnowWatTimeItIz2]

I got tired of madden and ncaa after two weeks

[K1NGx17]

ncaa has used the same commentator expressions

[vikingsfan2218]

@K1NGx17 I'd rather have the same commentary than that sad excuse for commentary in madden 12. 

[jimmeysmiththegreat]

ign rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

[RomeinKnome44]

I need someone's opinion who has played both games, should I buy this or Madden NFL 12?

[Crossedferret88]

@RomeinKnome44 all depends on your preference. I feel madden runs smoother and the drafting and offseason goes by a lot quicker. it's fun to build a winning team real quickly but is pretty simple. NCAA football proves to be much harder to build a winning team from a terrible one (i took new mexico just for the hell of it). it's much more of a challenge because you have to spend a lot of time recruiting and such. if you're lookin for a quick play i'd say madden, for depth NCAA

[StreetCactus1]

@Crossedferret88 yeah its longer in the offseason because it is more realalistic than madden,

[kingphresh09]

they should have at least have the whole team run out instead of the starting offense and 3d crowd and people moving around and at least cbs and abc along with the player face customazation and and diff. hair length and should show the white people love with the long hair and with addias visors and both team 1st and 2nd color sleves, gloves, cleats, and wrist bands and nike bands and lots of other stuff

[stephencolt45]

never geting this because of cover WAR EAGLE !!!

[GwKArtist]

how do you get dreadlocks because right now ncaa 12 is shit

[Pizzaboy139]

@agustin013 Ok, never mind, I see one now. Off to the Sugar Bowl!!!!(btw, don't call me a fag, I didn't know there were even any in the game since I always play online)

[cocainmonster]

The AI is horrible in this game in RTG, As A running back, blockers often run past guys rather then blocking them, they play calling is horrible, and You will always lose Confrence games because they score on every drive and you cant do anything about it, i lost as #7 VT to #5 FSU and i had 250ish yards and 4 TDs

[lukewalln]

@cocainmonster um you probley have your setting to high becaue ive won every confrence game in my RTG's

[Pizzaboy139]

Uhh, hello EA, where are the BCS bowl games?

[agustin013]

@Pizzaboy139 uh, hello faggot, they are in the game DUH

[Kpeg9]

-cornerbacks just automatically jumping up catching interceptions while not even facing the ball

-defense ends end up being REALLY DOMINANT

-pass defenses are way to dominant

-option plays never work

-trick plays never work

-too many minor injuries

-late hit unsportsman- like conduct not called after plays

[shortdevil2]

@Kpeg9 or maybe you just suck? O.o

[ThaaJimster]

Ncaa Football 12 is a 60 dollar piece of shit!

[nateword]

@ThaaJimster

what's wrong with it?

[beaverswatter]

They really need to work outside the hash marks for 2013. It's so bland outside and has been for years, give me some realistic jump balls and dare I say....a defensive pass interference call?

[dflood131]

@beaverswatter ive only seen one pass interference ever

[agustin013]

@beaverswatter yeah i love masturbating when my mom isnt home too

[126tweber]

[eaglehead2010]

the fans in the stands look better on here than in Madden lol

[TheNameIsTopher]

@eaglehead2010 NCAA always looks better than Madden.

[eaglehead2010]

@TheNameIsTopher true that lol

[tpmgx6]

MIZ!

[Cowboyguy89]

Linebackers and d-linemen that out jump basketball players, psychic DBs, WRs that will literally let the ball bounce off their head, chest, and hands, WRs that will NOT go for the ball and DBs that know right where to be to pick it off, pocket passing and balanced QBs in RTG with crappy stats despite being 5 star (47 throwing power for crying out loud), and shitty playcalling by coaches in RTG. And that's not even including the so-called patches that were sent out. Created more problems.

[hareth9hmoud]

if i do a road to glory my 3 teams will be miami boise and either georgia florida or texas

[hareth9hmoud]

does this have season mode?

[WolfPSN]

I'll stick with 11 and wait for 14.

[tiger5369]

i always buy the game a year after it come out for 20 bucks.

[melizadock]

I like football

[LooEG12345]

can anyone tell me (this is kind of a stupid question but,) why are there no names on the players jerseys?!?!?1

[MrKjamesB]

@LooEG12345 They cant because they are just college players, same reason college jerseys you buy in real life only have a number.

[SloppyRim]

@suckxMyxGlock

Is south Carolina bad on this game? Them and virginia tech are the only reasons I would buy this game

[MrSerbii1]

should i get madden 12 or ncaa 12

[smith89beast]

@MrSerbii1 ncaa 12

[MrEminemfan007]

@MrSerbii1 ncaa its better

[Thesportsman811]

$60 for this $30 game? I wipe my ass with $60 dollars ain't spending no 60 dollar game on that shit

[EnlightenedJHOX]

Muck Fizzou

[thepunkdish]

Are we really gonna complain about this. The only game to complain about this yr is Madden. I mean, really. NCAA hasn't let us down yet. Who's with me and liked the part where it talked about the game from 0:00 till 3:47

[Partyffs]

How dose this compare to blitz ?oO

[pwrhoads56]

The main problem that I have with this game is how unrealistic the blocking is. I can deal with the dropped passes every once in a while but when every lineman blocks for one second before letting the defender through, thats infuriating. Like if you agree.

[hareth9hmoud]

fifa 12 or this?

[Heat091267]

@hareth9hmoud fifa 12

[hareth9hmoud]

@Heat091267 thanks my cousin said this but im getting fifa 12

[Kpeg9]

-Too many fatass middle linebackers being able to jump 4 feet and block passes

-Too many dropped passes, blocked passes

-Every Reviewed Play is overturned

-More announcers, instead of Herbstreit and Corso announcing every game

-More/Better Band Formations, or maybe even a Halftime show

-Too many minor injuries

Right Now its a 8/10 for me, but fix these and it will be a 10 :)

[MrEminemfan007]

@Kpeg9 the first two complaints carry over to madden 12 horribly

[Kpeg9]

@MrEminemfan007 here are some mroe for ncaa,

-offensive line does not properly pick up blocks

- in road to glory, play calling is horrific, my quarterback decided to do 4 verticals on 3rd and 1 -.-

-quarterback does not properly read plays

[MrEminemfan007]

@Kpeg9 actually your right dont forget the spectacularly bad offensive line play, the unrealistic drops by wides, unbelieveable closing speed by corners on passes, unrealistic wideout awareness and terribly overated safeties

[cwf198]

WHY CANT I CELEBRATE WITH THE MASCOT ANY MORE AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[joshua23671234]

I dont know why anyone is complaining about this review it got an 8.5,thats great for a sports game.

[blitz0921]

This game is completely broken. Waaayyy too many glitches and bugs.

[SuckxMyxGlock]

They could of actually done something to improve South Carolina....sure they aren't huge National champions but I mean come on.......

[SwiftyIAm]

ahhhh ugga is soo cute

[uofm97]

I've found the Road To Glory mode to be quite annoying. I lost count of how many times I'd have a guy wide open for a pass 30 yards downfield, fire a bullet to him only to see 3-5 guys standing in front of my WR waiting to swat it down. If you downgrade the difficulty, you lose your place on the online leaderboard. How unfair is that and who really is that obsessed with having to be on there anyway?

[getsomekat]

Is it me or is every hit from the computer a Big Hit! And what's the deal with not being able to pick the damn ball off even if that bitch is a duck????????????? I wash my hands with EA and there BS they produced this year!!!

[getsomekat]

This fucking game sucks...This by far is the worst in the series. Your running back no matter the speed can be chased down by DB's....Ur WR almost always drop the damn ball in tight games when the A.I. is mounting a comeback. For some reason the best hands on the field belongs to the LB's( really EA) I'm so dissappointed in this game that as soon as I get stateside it's going to the nearest fucking gamestop. I hated Madden now I can and NCAA to my list now! come on MW3...

[socca727]

I'll bet your not happy that mizzou lost in overtime today against Arizona huh?

[davidgem]

There's nothing terribly wrong with getting them every year. Even if the changes are subtle, you don't have to miss out on them to "seem smarter." I had 2010 and 2011 and I traded in 2011 to help pay for another game. I haven't touched NCAA since February, and I don't already have a dynasty in 2010 so I'm not going back to that one... I'm not saying that it's guaranteed that I'll get this one, but it's very likely.

And do you expect ea NOT to release one every year? That would be stupid

[MaximLight]

does ncaa have coop like madden does?

[obvprince3]

PEOPLE I NEED HELP DECIDING ON WHICH GAME TO GET!!

Madden 12 or NCAA Football 12?? ( owners of both would be good... ) need opinions

[xXPsychoticGamingXx]

@obvprince3 get NCAA,I have both and NCAA has a better experience.Also,it's easier to run plays.I haven't touched Madden in months but the last time I played it,it seemed impossible to run the ball more than 2 or 3 yards a play.

[graysonw1]

@obvprince3 I don't own either of these games, but I have researched these games more than anyone probably. In NCAA 12 they changed the dynasty and that felt like the only real improvement. I have NCAA 11 and I love it and actually feel like it's better than NCAA Football 12 in some ways. I recommend overall getting NCAA 11, if you don't have it, cause it's way cheaper and better, to me. But to answer your question, Madden 12 all the way.  Madden 12 has lots more changes and is a fun game.

[josh19852008]

@graysonw1 VERY TRUE. They need to go back to the regular recruiting where you can pick what you want to talk about. If they would have brought it back for 2012 I would have dealt with the horrible over all game play.

[CODlover2317]

madden or this please help im getting 1 tomorrow

[quatifa67]

@CODlover2317 Get Ncaa 12 the graphics are alot better and so is the A.I. and the graphics in madden12 have gotten worse and the features a little better but not much and ncaa has improved RTG and Dynasty with the Coaching Carousel... So Get NCAA 12 Trust ME

[tabbster23]

@CODlover2317 def ncaa. madden pisses me off so much to wher i wanna throw the controller. they have the slowest throwing actions, which results in too many sacks. plus they enabled accelrated clock in franchise mode and you CANT turn it off!! dumb move EA. cant wait for 2K to make a game

[LLR345209]

should i get this or madden nfl 12

[MrWCWdFan4LiFe]

@LLR345209 both, but ncaa is amazing

[LLR345209]

@MrWCWdFan4LiFe thanks good man

[23ABautista]

Thumbs up if you put the names on players u know

[FuriaAlbaGeoX]

I dont get it ...EA made 2 football games the same year ? what is the difference betwen this and madden?

[lsugotigers1]

@FuriaAlbaGeoX NCAA is college football, Madden is NFL, they make 2 games every year one for NFL and another for college.

[FuriaAlbaGeoX]

@lsugotigers1 ok,then I'm gettin' madden...I dont care for college football

[YanksCelticsPatsFan]

What I usually do is after the regular season and postseason is done with either football, baseball, basketball, etc, etc, I sell the games. They are still worth about $60 so I get about $50. So basically that means I won't really be wasting much money on the new Madden or MLB The Show game each year. IDK I think it's a good idea.

[mrwright909]

This shit KILLS madden in every way!

[NYPDBLUE87]

It's retarded that I have to take out 5 Ohio State Buckeyes, 2 LSU Tigers, 8 Miami Hurricanes, 1 Oregon Duck from the game. That includes the starting quarterbacks for OSU, LSU, and the U. -_-

[lcthecoolone]

umm ncaa 11 is better trust me i have both

[MrJb423]

@lcthecoolone no its not that game is like half as good i hav both to

[chrisnoob27]

106 people are cam newton fans

[GetMoneyJH23]

RTG is f***** up, but the rest of the game is awesome

[pimppacman]

Why doesnt Puddles do his push ups after touchdowns?

[Shippudenproduction]

guys im new to this games and to the game can someone tell me should i buy 12 or 11?

[osamabinpawning123]

@Shippudenproduction get 12 so you can import your player to madden 12

[Shippudenproduction]

@osamabinpawning123 maddern 12 is better than ncaA?

[osamabinpawning123]

@Shippudenproduction i don't know madden 12 didn't even come out yet, but if you get ncaa12 you can transfer you college player to the nfl

[Shippudenproduction]

@osamabinpawning123 madden 12 came out on amazon i orderd ncaa 12 though.

[osamabinpawning123]

@Shippudenproduction just because you can buy it on amazon doesn't mean it's out...it just means that amazon is going to start shipping out madden12 on the release date.

[Shippudenproduction]

@osamabinpawning123 dude it's out since 12 july even ign said that on the website.

[osamabinpawning123]

@Shippudenproduction im talking about madden12 not ncaa...

[Shippudenproduction]

@osamabinpawning123 i don't want madden 12 i already orderd ncaa.

[osamabinpawning123]

@Shippudenproduction kid...you said madden 12 came out on amazon like amazon is secretly selling the game before release date

[Shippudenproduction]

@osamabinpawning123 listen dumbass don't call me a kid and all the time i was talking about ncaa i said madden 12 was out on amazon so it can comes to you on the release date *amazon secretly selling the game* your a dumbass..

[osamabinpawning123]

@Shippudenproduction kid, you type so vague and you really did believe that amazon ships out madden12 before release date, so stop copying what i said to make yourself not look like a ignorant little kid. Just look at your recent post and tell me you don't type like a clueless fuck.

[Shippudenproduction]

@osamabinpawning123 listen dumb fuck you missed understand me i was talking about ncaa 12 and it was released at 12 july so shut the fuck up.

[osamabinpawning123]

@Shippudenproduction lol dumb fuck? learn to type it's not ,missed understand me, It's miss understood me. Kid i didn't miss understand you, you did say that madden came out on july 12 and not ncaa12 so who's the dumb fuck now?

[Shippudenproduction]

@osamabinpawning123 maybe i miss understood but your so fucking stupid now shut the fuck up..

[osamabinpawning123]

@Shippudenproduction your admitting to being a dumbass and still argueing....your a true ignorant kid lol

@osamabinpawning123 like your name douche
