 1080p 60 was promising, but had it's issues June 6, 2008
hopefully 09 will be the ultimate HD college football gaming experience. Fun game as always, but on the 360 the 1080p 60fps had processing issues for 08.
Great Game for NCAA Fans!... June 1, 2008
A little slow at times, but the College atsmosphere overshadows and issues. EA Sports has glitches as we all know, but once you get passed them and understand why they happen you will be alright. I am looking forward to both NCAA Football 2009 & Madden NFL 2009. See you on the grid iron!
 good but always can be better April 14, 2008
For one, this game used to be my favorite game on regular xbox UNTIL I went out and bought a xbox 360. I then purchased ncaa 07.....hated it. Then played ncaa football 08. Also hated it. Mainly because EVERY single year EA sports will change the controls to TRY and make something different. I completely stopped playing it after the 07 version on xbox 360. The controls were confusing and everything i liked about audibling, shifting lineman, shifting wide receivers changed to a completely different button. Also I learned I had to press 2-3 different buttons to scroll through the menu while on the roster!!!!! What the hell! KEEP THE CONTROLS THE SAME FOR GOD SAKES! STOP CHANGING THEM. PEOPLE WANT THE SAME CONTROL OPTIONS PEOPLE! MAKE THE GAME PLAY MORE REALISTIC WITH BETTER NON GEEKY SPRINTING STYLES, MAKE BETTER CHAMPIONSHIP CELEBRATIONS!!! BETTER COMMENTATING! GOOD GOD!
Football 360 April 5, 2008
This was given as a gift and the recipient is a football fanatic. Any more fun the receipient would be crashing through the television screen trying to complete a play.
 Terribly developed April 4, 2008
The other day I was playing this game with my brother. We started off our game at night in Boise. About halfway through the second quarter, I thought I noticed a lighting change, so we watched the instant replay. Sure enough, the night had changed instantly into day. Pat White might be able to juke some tough players, but he isn't God. When he drops back the sun doesn't change. Now this is a minor inconvenience and does not really affect my gaming experience, but it just goes to show how sloppily the game was created. Earlier, my brother went for a two-point conversion and I intercepted it. After running it back for two points of my own, I was made to kick off (after he had scored the TD) and, on top of that, I was kicking off from his 35 yard line. That was frustrating.
My other concerns about NCAA Football 2008:
The logic behind the order of switching players while a play is going is terrible. Countless times it takes several times to get the correct player, or I will try and select a defensive lineman for a sack and end up choosing a DB and leaving the receiver wide open. This is also a problem trying to select someone near the ball carrier to tackle him.
The player celebrations are spastic and obnoxious.
The graphics seem to be worse than before.
The in-game stat update windows have cheesy designs.
The absence of momentum tracker was a huge loss to the game's realism.
Quite often during the game, players do very unrealistic things like changing directions very quickly, taking 7 seconds to run 40 yards (even really fast players), and making unrealistic tackles.
Not being able to call plays and control the whole team during campus legend mode is a step in the wrong direction. How am I supposed to have a good receiver, running back, or quarterback when my stupid coach keeps calling terrible plays, and I don't get to decide who gets the ball?
First-person kick blocking and returning should not have been done away with.
