Re: IGN MM Reveiw

That's very interesting I must say especially coming from IGN.

I guess EA must have spent more time between the demo and release just tuning up on the gameplay. As far as the frame rate issues I think some people just make too big a deal over that stuff. I personally don't even notice half the time. I didn't bother me at all in NHL 07 or NCAA 07 during gameplay.

As for gameplay I'm happy to hear EA finally got rid of those quick plays and actually put together playbooks for all teams. That saves me lot's of time since I've always had to do that stuff myself. One thing I'm not happy about is they didn't include any classic teams. I mean come on how hard could it be to put together atleast 40 teams. Now, I have to go and piece together teams on my own so hopefully they give you full access to editing every teams roster.

Re: IGN MM Reveiw

I'm still picking this up, the reviewer seemed to harp on the fact that the game is coming out late. I was a litttle suprised about the frame rate issue comment. I'm still getting it and give you guys my .2 cents. I only need 1 college b ball game and I feel it'll be MM07.

Re: IGN MM Reveiw

The only thing that bothers me is the default arena! On College Hoops at least every team has there real home court on there are different venues that are not just listed as an NCAA arena with logos all over the damn place

yes but framerate isues in that game are ok because the view is vertical. In horizontal angles framerates in soccer basketball games are VERY important.

yeah, I wonder why EA couldn't put in real arenas, especially for the tournament. That'd suck if all the courts were generic for the tournament.
