  1. What could've been a five-star prospect quickly became a solid backup. Unless you're a college football fanatic, we suggest waiting for Madden NFL 10.
  2. I stuck mostly with the on-field stuff, and it was solid enough for me to keep tinkering around with rivalries, tradition and the spread offense. But it won't make fans of the pros change their allegiance.

    You'll get plenty of enjoyment from the younger touchdown slinger too. [Nov 2009, p.131]
  4. In the end what you have is gameplay that is as good as it has ever been – not perfect and still with some frustrations but clearly NCAA 10 is the most respectable version of this series to date.

    Despite the new animations, new moves, and features, this year's model plays a lot like last year's game, with very subtle, often ineffective changes. [Sept 2009, p.79]

    Can EA figure out how a person runs? On the next-gen consoles it seems like the players run really weird. Before it seemed like they ranCan EA figure out how a person runs? On the next-gen consoles it seems like the players run really weird. Before it seemed like they ran duckfooted and their body moved a lot side-to-side, now they overstide and seem really slow. No running back is going to run with the same style as a miler with long strides. There're six foot sprinters with quick feet. Make them run like a sprinter not Bernard Lagat. Full Review »

    Worst game ever. Do the EA guys play this game when they are done with it? Do they know they created Superman defenders who can magically findWorst game ever. Do the EA guys play this game when they are done with it? Do they know they created Superman defenders who can magically find themselves in front of passes they were not physically in position for? Do they know the AI for offensive lineman is equal to the IQ of a half eaten pickle? Do they notice the horrible pass interference the CPU does on every play, yet USER defenders are brushed aside like little kids. It makes me wonder what those clowns at EA are doing! Full Review »
