Re: March Madness Demo now available on Marketplace

I find it sad that even the ea representative on operation sports(said he was something for MM) said it wouldn't come out till the the 20th. Shows how many they know.

Re: March Madness Demo now available on Marketplace

I'm gonna waite for the game to be completed because I don't get into demo's or reviews too much. I just like to test them out myself once complete and go from there. But it will be interesting to hear some feedback on the early build from you guy's. Just remember though the actual game doesn't come out til january so there's probably some stuff in the demo that will need more work. I'm sure EA probably has those silly quick plays still as the default playbook even in their college hoops game and everyone knows in college ball teams run set plays on offense and defense more so than the nba. But I'm willing to bet EA hasn't figured that out and won't make teams play those crazy college zone defenses that you see all the time.

Re: March Madness Demo now available on Marketplace

What's up fellows? Have'nt been on in a while, busy playing Gears & Cod3. Gave the MM demo a run and I am still not ready to give a thumbs up just yet. Still a lot of work needs to be done before they release this baby. Amazing how MM player movement is so smooth compared to Live 07. The complete movement and finished animations are what Live 07 should have been, but that's another argument. Overall, really liked the Open outdoor practice court, gone are the days of the rainbow jumpers, finally fixed. Crowds are wild!!!. Get ready boys looks like EA might have learned from the Live 07 fiasco unfinished products are no longer gonna be accepted like in previous years from the masses. Peace!!!!

I wonder if EA will allow you to create former great teams like the 80's Tar Heel's with Jordan, Perkins, Worthy and Kenny Smith, The Hoyas with Ewing, Reggie Williams, Mutombo and David Wingate or those UNLV teams of the early 90's LJ, Greg Anthony and Stacy Augmon.

That is my main reason for wanting this game kinda like NCAA Football this year.

Re: March Madness Demo now available on Marketplace

The only thing I liked was the outside practice court. I kicked ass with morrision I think it was. I hate the passing, the one major thing about this game that I think college hoops should put in is the larger courts. I loved the spacing.

Re: March Madness Demo now available on Marketplace

I actually liked the Demo quite a bit....One thing i didnt like though was the passing felt like i had to push the button like 5 times for it to even pass they need a direct pass option too oh and when i was down low trying to press x to lay it up or dunk it that was kinda delayed too...overall i like it i will be buying college hoops this coming up week but i may still buy MM when it comes out..but thats a long time away
