Is there a law that says you're not allowed to like a game made by EA?

I heard this saying once, "To each their own." It's quite clear that many haven't heard it before.

Yeah, its been the only thing in my xbox, and all my friends from other games have noticed. I'm in my early 30's and I've never played a game this much non stop.

CH2K8 got a 7 from this site. They are saying that NCAA 2009 deserves an 8 and maybe better.

I slammed the game and it's developers when the inexcusable bugs game to light but I decided to rent it anyways and I have to say >>> THIS GAME IS FUN. Take it for what it is. I've given up expecting any football video game to be a correct simulation. My favorite APF 2K8 is not a sim but is fun as heck and it's the same here. I just finished my first dynasty game as Hawaii and got destroyed at the swamp 31-7 as I should have yet had a blast.

Despite it's glaring flaws, this game at it's base is something special. If they fix the numerous bugs this year and improve/overhaul the line play next season this game is on the verge of greatness.

I know I'll be playing this for months to come.

I'm happy ignored the boards (for the most part) and purchased game.

Its better than last years game that's all that matters. I'm sure the upcoming patches will enhance the experience even more.

Yeah, but at this point, EA could sell you a ham sandwich and call it NCAA 2010, and people would jump all over it because you could slice through the sandwhich like never before. This game is broken, plain and simple, and stuff like this isn't going to fly for very much longer.

In fact, I propose that next year, EA just sack their 2010 game and focus on 2011. Since to many of you, 2009 is the greatest thing since chips met queso, I don't think there would be too much of an uproar. Plus, you could get a new feature like actual defense.
