This game was fantastic, through and through amazing. NCAA 08 is not only a blast to play because of its depth of dynasty mode but its the most durable game I have ever had. I have played it for many straight hours on many straight days and its just as good as the day i picked it up. Dynasty is as good as ever and recruting is somuch fun. The new feature, trophy room is sick you have your favorite teams logo on the floor as your best plays loop and your favorite snap shots are shown, and you can veiw all of your trophies. Be careful when saving highlighs and pictures, they take up a lot of space. I always say this but if you dont like buying the brand new game this game is perfect and 100% worth it. Overall Best NCAA game up 08 basketball or football. Buy it without even considering anything else.
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: tough challenges

I have had this game for 6 months now and I love it. The only problem with it is there are way to many INTs. If you can get past lots of those you will love it.

NCAA 08 is a good college football game. The graphics are quite good from the character models to the stadiums, though there are some pop up issues for the stadiums which hamper the lighting somewhat. The gameplay is solid and has very tight controls. The playbook is packed and the new waves to navigate it are welcome additions. Campus Legend mode is also a new addition, and some of the cool parts of it are playing through high school playoffs and tracking stories on espn.com. I wish you were to play both sides of the ball though, and not solely your player. All of the expected game modes (exhibition, dynasty, season) are present, which round out the package nicely. This game can be recommended to any football fans, and people even some non-fans.
What's great about it: Great graphics, college atmosphere, campus legend mode
What's not so great: Some graphical blemishes, online is spotty

This is possibly the best football game ever produced. Great graphics and angles, the play control is excellent, and the options are numerous. If you have to own one game for your XBox 360, this is it.

this is a great game. if u like NCAA games or u just like football, get this. u can spend hours just running the option play. the campus legend mode is great and it got alot better then it was last year. unfortunitly it did lose momentum meter but it has motivation boosts now. this is a great game for 2 freinds to play each other in or just play the computer.i personally play campus legend for the whole time, and then beat my friends. this is just as good if not better then madden for all you out there wondering.
What's great about it: Graphics, campus legend, THE OPTION PLAY
What's not so great: alot of loading, and freezing.

This game as well as Madden seem to get better every new year, on the next gen consoles. This is the best year of NCAA. The Dynasty mode is still a ton of fun, and the superstar mode is not yet perfect, but is getting better. My biggest flaw that I see in this game is the recruiting. As there really seems to be no consistency in how you get recruits to come to your school. To name all the minor flaws would be senseless as, yes there are many, however none of them are really major. The only major flaw is that there is a lot of freezing in this game. It seems as though the game is constantly loading and you always get screens that are locking up. However compared to last years game this is a much more enjoyable version, as it is not as bare. I hope that 2009 will be more like the versions we used to get on the last gen consoles. If you're a big college football fan, and looking for the best you can get on the newer consoles, this is your best, and only choice. Four stars as there is really nothing to compare it to.

It is a more realistic passing system. On 07 you can throw into tight coverage a complete the pass, but not on this one. It makes you look around for the open guy and not your favorite reciever. Intercepting a pass is to easy to me on the game. Get this game the best NCAA football game ever made!!!
What's great about it: breaking tackles with analog stick
What's not so great: FREEZING

I would recommend this game, but its not the best game ever. It's better than last years, but still not like a madden. If your a college football guy, buy this game. If you just want to play football get Madden.
What's great about it: Great gameplay, control, and dynasty.
What's not so great: Gets old after a while.

This game is the best of its kind to this day. It has smooth gameplay and amazing graphics. It has even more realistic takles with the new Hit Stick 2.0 were you are able to preform high hit stick tackles and the new part of it-- low hit stick tackles were you slice under the opponent and try to trip them up. It does not feature the momentum meter which was one of the best parts of '07, but this is by far a must buy.
What's great about it: Graphics and Gameplay are amazing
What's not so great: Loss of "Momentum Meter" from '07

I buy College Football every year and this year EA did great work on improving this title. There are still some things that they need to work on but the gameplay has improved greatly. Right away you will notice that this year the gameplay is much more smoothly as in comparison to NCAA Football 2007 played very slowly. Overall, this is a great game and playing online makes it very much worth the 59.99
What's great about it: In depth campus legend mode, online gameplay

This game is a major improvement over 2007. The Dynasty mode is great and recruiting is fun after you learn the new system. The addition of the Weather Channel link makes it like real time at each stadium. Online play is great. I definitely recommend this game, the new player animations and gang tackles and mid air hits are great. If you don't buy this year, you should definitely get next year's edition.
What's great about it: Interface is great, and improved AI. Dynasty mode is well worth it.
What's not so great: Occasionally framerate slow down.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This game is great if they keep it up it is going to be like you are in the game it self. They do need to work on the online play a little bit so it dont lag. But everything else is great like the tackles they look so real it is amazing and I also like how you can play the last four games of your high school carrer that is cool to well that about wrapes it up go and get it. Its worth the money for sure.
What's great about it: Very Good Graphics looks very real
What's not so great: onlline play lags alittle
