DarkStar189 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I had a friend who was obsessed with these games at the time. Other than him I never knew anyone else that played them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are people still playing xbox 360 so they can play the 2014 version of this game (lots of them). This game will sell systems when it releases. Now being EA it could suck really badly. I hope that they have a separate team working on this from Madden. Also it sounds like it is not coming this year anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal-El814 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 All I remember of this series from the GameCube era that made it different from Madden was viable option plays and marching band music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 WV football fans were fucking bummed when the NCAA games were no more. People wear gold and blue here religiously. WV doesn't have a pro-team so everyone preferred NCAA. And like, if you weren't a fan of WVU then there was always Marshall. The people I know only switched to Madden because it was their only option. Like, some of them had only played NCAA and never touched Madden.

nublood Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Nice! Now I can make Auburn win more than 7 games a season... just to see what it looks like. That being said, now we can hate each other again for the right reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Division? have to do with liking them or not. That sounds stupid. Like hating an NFL team because they are NFC or AFC sounds stupid as well.

Back in the day you could play this and then import your draft class to madden so there was one reason to play them both. 7 hours ago, Bacon said: I'm not a WVU fan, but what is wrong with WVU?

I liked how they presented rivalry trophies for example. Fremont Cannon - Wikipedia EN.M.WIKIPEDIA.ORG Replaying big classic games to change the outcome was also interesting in past games.

Keyser_Soze Posted February 3, 2021 Author Share Posted February 3, 2021 I always enjoyed it more than Madden because (other than option plays and marching band music) More teams More robust playbooks Recruiting Well recruiting was probably the biggest part of the game. Building your team year after year through recruiting was sometimes even more fun than actually playing the football game. Also, seasons were shorter so you could get to end of season recruiting faster (but there was also in season recruiting as well). I've purchased an NCAA game (which is what they were called before they stopped making them) more times than I have a Madden game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
