What our customer's say!

"I actually threw out this game", I was a huge fan of NCAA 2007... I don't understand why this game was even released though. There are ZERO improvements over '07. It is virtually the same game. I was willing to overlook some of the flaws of '07, but EA has apparently decided to make this series a cash cow and just keep cranking out the same game every year for more money with no actual development.

'08 suffers from the same randomness as '07. You can play this game for months and not get any better at it or see your win % increase. The problem stems from the utter randomness of the passing game. There is no way to defend against the pass and you are left to just mash buttons and pray. Sometimes that doesn't even work as your QB will take many sacks thanks to unresponsive controls that fail to pass when you press a button.

I didn't just shelve this game, I threw it out... it went out with my trash last week. I recommend the Madden series. You have more control over the outcome of the game, which is the whole point of playing the game vs. watching one on TV. If you insist on the thrill of gaming, at least save yourself 30 minutes and flip a coin instead. If it comes up tails, you lost. There.. I just saved you a half hour you would have spent screaming at this game as your #2 ranked team loses for the 5th straight time to Iowa...

If you own 2007, definately save your cash. Just skip to 2009 or just keep playing 2007.

"Great Game for the College Football Fan", Having played a few hundred games of NCAA Football 08, I feel qualified to write a review.
I love this game, and it is fun! I play it almost every day. I have been a college football fan since 1967 (O.J. Simpson was a junior at USC that year). Yes, I am old. These games sure beat what was available back then!
I agree with the other reviews, this game has its bugs and glitches, and the AI can be frustratingly stupid. But, it doesn't ruin the game that much. I lowered the scale on penalties down to 10%, and interceptions to zero for both sides (no adjust for fumbles). The complaint of to many penalties and turnovers can be fixed reasonably.
The game controls do have a much more positive feel than the Madden NFL games.
There is good attention to detail. The uniforms, helmet logos are well done. The stadiums pretty much look like the real stadiums. The computer keeps track of your stats for you. The ESPN crew is a good touch, if not for repeating the same phrases game to game, and Lee Corso's comments can get annoying (you can turn them off).
The game manual is just about worthless, it explains only basic game controls. You have to figure things out over time as you play the game.
It's also easy to cheat, by adjusting game settings or player ratings in your favor, and playing the bonus pennants, you can take a "rag bag" program like New Mexico State or Baylor in the DYNASTY mode, and have them playing for the national championship in a few seasons.
I have had a lot of fun in the CAMPUS LEGEND mode by making a DT 7 feet tall and 415 lbs. Actually, you can make any player you choose 7 feet tall and 415 lbs. (not very realistic). It doesn't mean they are harder to tackle or block though. Making them tall makes them better at going up for passes or knocking down the ball.
It also helps playing this game to have a good prior knowledge of formations and plays.
If you love college football this is a great game. I'd give it 5 stars if not for the annoying glitches and bugs that EA Sports doesn't seem to want to fix each year.

"Excellent game, the best college football game EA Sports ", has done to date. The gameplay, stadium graphics and even the commentary by the ESPN crew are really really good. Dynasty mode has improved and the overall game is the best. Whether you are playing the computer or against a friend, it is competitive.

"great game", This was a birthday gift for a 9 year old boy. He and his 10.5 year old brother loved the game. They had played it at a friends and requested it by name. But having it at home to play with all the time did not reduce the thrill of it. They love being able to choose which team to be and sometimes play Texas A&M for both sides since they both are Aggie fans. The 9 year old has picked up playing strategies from this game that he uses in backyard games.

"Great game", I bought this for my son who absolutely loves it. Game was in perfect shape and ordering was easy.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"NCAA 08", Every year this series just keeps getting better and better...and this year the best part of the game just got even better...and that is the recruiting with a more indepth in season recruiting. The "My Shrine" room gives you a lot to hold your interested even if you not playing the game...

"Lots of fun!!", I'm not a big online gamer, in fact I don't get too much time to devote to any games, however the time I have had to try out this year's installment of the NCAA 08 has been a joy. Usually I am not a big "extras" fan, but the additions of the "Shrine" and other extras are nice additions.
the gameplay is realistic and fun. Really enjoy pitting tiny schools against the likes of USC etc.
Highly recommend this one.

"EA Ruins What Was Once a Great Game", I've been playing the games of this series for years. Previously, it was not uncommon to go through a game and not have a penalty called. Now, in a bizzare reversal, I've permanently shelved this game because the playability has been destroyed by too many penalties.

In the options screen, there are sliders for the penalties. When I noticed a disproportionate amount of holding penalties being called, I adjusted the slider down. I just shut the game off just now after the 8th holding penalty was called in the first quarter alone with the slider at 0%.

Unbelieveable. This game gets a big, fat 1 star and two middle fingers. Hopefully, my nerdy video game dreamworld will be rebuilt by Madden 08, as the college game will serve no other purpose than to provide draft classes for my Madden Franchise.

"not what is advertised", This game is better than the previous versions, but (a huge but)this game is not what was advertised.

The ps3 version was advertise, with all the recruiting additions, and this version is the same old thing.

I wish I would have know this because I would have bought the ps3 and the ps3 version of the game, but now I feel lied too, so I won't buy the ps3.

Still this is a good game that is better.

"Still good, but pretty much the same as 07. ", This is a great game and I still enjoy getting the newer version every year. Over the past two years, not much has changed. I will tell you what has changed... the new stadium flyby at the beginning of the game. The spring drills, similar to the Madden drills that help you boost your player(s) ratings are now featured in the pre-season mode. The in-season recruiting mode has switched to pre-season, to give you a jump start on recruiting. If you make a great play you can go the instant replay feature and take a Polaroid of the big hit, or amazing play, then save it to your memory card by pressing L3. The home field advantage crowd noise feature has upped its pulse to over 120db (the previous game had a ceiling of 120db). The game also has a deke stick move to help the QB avoid a sack, or side-step a sack, same goes for RBs. These are a few of the new features that separate the game from previous years.

If you are looking for something different, I would suggest getting the PS3 version of this game. From what I've seen the graphics and gameplay are incredible.
