I had a buddy come up to visit and he brought up his PS3.
First off, this game seems dumbed down compared to the ps2 one.
I have some basic questions.
1. Is there a momentum factor? I never saw the momentum bar when playing.
2. How do you audible your OL to crash right, left, middle or wide?
3. How do you call the audible equal to PS2 when you hit Square and then Right toggle up (Slants), down (Slam run), Left (PA Pass), Right (Posts/streaks)? My buddy had no idea what I was asking.
4. commit your LB's /secondary? PS2 you just hit the right toggle after the ball is snapped. PS3?
5. User break tackles, user swats, user catches
Crashing your DL and LB is the same.
Overall I was not impressed. The guys run retarded and jerky. Kick off return guys run slow as Christmas.
Overall the running game seems dumbed down like a video game from the 80's.
Staying in the pocket is easy as hell. your ol guys are like stone walls that stop anything that touches them and the DL is so slow that you have plenty of time to move around the pocket.
None of the players look real, they all look like robots from Cyberbowl or something and it never felt like college football.
Are we really moving up to ps3 when 09 comes out? If so I hope that 09 is improved than what I saw from 08 ps3 based on the 3 games I played.

you have to move around with the analog stick..if you use the D pad the guys don't move right.

Yeah, but I am not impressed with the graphics at all...PS2 looked more realistic that this stuff. I thought I was playing "Transformers" or something.
We are going to PS3 regardless of how gay it is, we will all get used to it and love it.

I played it today for the first time since it came out and I actually liked it a lot. Here are the things i've noticed about it that are different from PS2:
-You break a lot of tackles (WR's and HB's) -If you throw a bad pass it will get picked off, no question about it -I like controlling the analog stick b/c you will juke more often than if you were using the D-Pad -Jumpng the snap is L2 and is awkward to do, but i'll get used to it.
Overall, its not as bad as I thought and I can't wait for 09 to come out.

Cool, i played it with a friend so we had the whole play book thing going on where we were watching each others play.
He didnt take time to show me the user buttons. I just wanted to know how to user swat, catch and commit the LB's and he didnt know.
I know after I get my ps3 and have time to analize the game it won't be long until I love it.
I did notice that my passing routes were money most of the time when I hit the right reads in zone or man and the WR's would animate for the ball without hitting user catch.
I am looking forward to it.

I just played the computer and just got used to it a little. We will all love it. The hits are better and you do have more time to throw the ball, but then again, I played against the computer.

the ps3 version of 08 is terrible.. i watched some videos on the 09 version and it looks like it will be more like the ps2 version of this year. those graphics on ncaa 08 for ps3 looked like the graphics of xbox360's ncaa verson of 06
