Well in my first dynasty game w/ illinois (all american diff.) I NARROWLY edged florida A&M 55-0! God they were terrible. And my starters only played the 1st half too...

Well, this is my last week of work before I have an entire month off before leaving for school in august. So i'll definitely be able to go to alot more games. Let me know when your planning it....

i've been michigan/illinois so far and both had pretty fast backs. And for celebrations, I think I've figured it out. You either hold L2 or R2 AND O/triangle/square. (L2-mild celebrations, R2-extreme celebrations) I'm not sure the specifics, but each button is either for fans/players/mascots....

hmm....not for me. I've had a few really big runs, where I just outran everybody.

create-a-player seems decent to me, can't really answer your question because i don't think I ever used it last year. And w/ a dial-up, your gameplay probably will be pretty choppy/laggy.....

I can't vote. I like NCAA/Madden equally and play them both for an insane amount of time. Both have unique styles of play...

First impressions. I played 2 halves of 2 different games, 2 different diff. levels. First game: Ohio State at Michigan (Me) Varsity Diff. Was leading 21-0 at the half. That stadium gets LOUD. Anytime Ohio St. had a 3rd down, the crowd went nuts. Second game: Illinois (me) at Florida St. All-American Was losing 14-0 at half. Big difficulty change between the two. It's so much hard to be visitor....Try kicking a FG, so hard. -TONS of new tackling animations. So much more realistic. -Players run differently, you'll notice it right away....in a good way. -The whole home field advantage is as big as you would expect. If anyone has any questions, ask away.

yeah, i preordered the collection edition. Off to play NCAA, later boys

I just picked mine up + preordered madden. Haven't gotten a chance to play it yet, I'll give my first impressions tonight.

Only way this trade even comes close to happening is if there's something more to frank's injury than we know about.

probably coulda put this in the already massive topic we have.

I'm going to get mine in about an hour, can't wait CWSGuy and Krush we SOOO need to get together for a sox game sometime this summer.

you mean after you got sick of me schooling you in NCAA football right?

MM is always fun, they need to polish it a bit though. Last year's version had a good core, but was a little choppy with it's presentation/graphics/controls/atmosphere.

real name? I go by soxnbears everywhere It's steve. And yeah, your right about Illinois, definitelyb e a tough road the first year Have to get memorial stadium rockin'

Last year I did a dynasty w/ texas tech, that was fun.....always having a tough schedule. After 2 year i got them to #1.

Let the cubs have 'em.....trainwreck waiting to happen.

ritalin helps too.....

awesome

nice

we're just open with our nerdiness

hey krush, where you working? got an internship or something?

I just watched "little big league" today for the first time in like 2-3 years......what an awesome movie that is

I saw that....can't wait. The home field advantage thing was such an awesome idea....I've always been a fan of having GREAT atmospheres in games. I would always turn the crowd volume up just to make it louder. The whole controller-shaking, missed audible/hot routes from the crowd will be so awesome. This is by far one of the most updated versions in a long time. Look at '04....didn't have too much new stuff.
