So I wasn't going to buy either b/c I didnt think I had the time. But low and behold I have time to play a game here and there. So my question is, which one should I buy? Madden or NCAA?
Since the second patch came out for NCAA, the dynasty mode is much improved. There's still a few problems - like most wide receiver prospects have bad elusiveness, agility, and acceleration...but you can find wideouts that are solid in those categories. The recruiting is pretty awesome now that I'm deep into dynasty mode - I had a few four starts rated under 70 and I've had a couple two starts rated over 70. You really have to scout player ratings in this game. There's some pretty good sliders out for it as well. Plus, EA Locker allows you to upload named rosters.
Thanks guys, I have to try Madden out to see how the game play is, if I like it I'll probably go that route. If the game play is poor as it's been in the past I'll get NCAA.
I'm just saying, whenever I have the money to buy 1 game but want 2, I rent them both. Caveat Empor, worddd
Try playing with a shitty team - I'm willing to bet you'll change your mind on that...at least for the first few seasons.
Ha dude, I use to get both games every year. For NCAA, I would either always create a team and make them a cupcake or start with Buffalo. It's super hard, but the best part about these games is building a crappy team up.
