I'm renting the game from BBV tonight. I hope to get at least a couple games in tonight and see how I feel about the game! They better hold the reservation. That's the key part of the reservation. Anyone can take a reservation. It's the holding that is important.

I'm keeping an eye on copies on Ebay. Since I have the rental til Sunday, I'm in no kind of hurry. There's 4 with free shipping that the auctions end within 2 minutes of each other, so I might try to scoop up one of those. Right now they're at $45-$50.

Let us know Jim. I might break down tonight too. Not sure.


I picked it up for the 360 tonight Rudy. It was a tough decision, what with the patch out for the PS3 already. But my weekend is pretty booked and I prefer the 360 controller, and yes, that slow ball rotation in PS3 replays bothers me. I figure that I won't really start anything until the rosters are out so hopefully by then the 360 patch will be available. As many times as I feel I have been burned by EA, I must confess that I am still a little worried that they will somehow screw up the 360 patch and it won't be as good as the PS3 patch. Stupid, I know, but I can't help it.

I still am disappointed that the atmosphere is supposedly so blah, there is no excuse for that in a college football game. But as The Bard said, the play is the thing and if it is as good as everyone says then I am willing to overlook atmosphere rather easily. I just wish for once NCAA could put it all together at once. Still, I am uber-excited about NCAA 10 once the patch is released.

I also picked up the PSP version. I have not heard anything about it, so Lord knows if it's any good. I had a $100 gift card burning a hole in my pocket. I really showed EA this year, huh? :biggrin:

That is good to hear that you picked this up, I think you will enjoy it Jim. The good thing this year with the PS3 is that the ball is finally spinning even though its slower unlike last year which it didn't spin at all. LOL!

I played another game in Road To Glory, and this has to be one of the most funnest modes. The only thing I dislike about it so far, but the things is that its a part of the real game of football is that you can't call your plays. I have had many situations where it was 4th & 1 and I wanted to go for it, only for the computer to go for the field goal. Again, its understandable since its not the QB's decision at this point. At times I will call audibles if I hate the play that is selected for me.

I bought it for $51 on ebay (I actually bought two since the auctions all ended at the same time, so I bid on multiple at a time - I'll resell the 2nd one or try to take it to Best Buy since it's never been opened.
