Video games

I know there are many video game players on the board. We also know the many complaints of our fair leader about the current NCAA Football game (damn anti-Chris Graham super linebackers with their great hands and leaping ability). Here's your chance for change.  This company has a kickstarter to create a new college football video game to launch prior to the 2014 season. Check out the link and watch the video to see how this one will be different. For those that don't know, Austin is a center for video game production. I have questions about the ability to get the NCAA licensing, but I do know this is a legit program.

I voted a long time ago and can't find it on my FB timeline.

Please keep voting for Michigan and Denard to make it on the cover of NCAA Football 14, Ed O'Bannon's lawsuit be damned!

We're only ~3,000 votes behind, and we're catching up.

There's no reason not to do this.  Unless I suppose you hate America.  Or don't have facebook.

Honestly, unless you want to see Eddie Lacy on the cover instead of Denard, go vote immediately.

BONUS:  The facebook page cover photo.  ND would have Manti Teo's fake girlfriend on the cover.  No wonder they lost.

I got bored reading about Te'o and found an interesting piece on ESPN about the chemistry that took place on the basketball team from playing video games, particularly Tim Hardaway's participation.  

I couldn't find this as having been posted....my apologies if it was.

MINNEAPOLIS -- Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. have bonded through video games, the universal passion of young men on campuses around the country.

Yes, an Xbox 360 helped the duo connect a year after they realized Michigan would become what is has become -- a squad that quieted naysayers after a Sunday loss at Ohio State and justified its top-five ranking when it stomped No. 9 Minnesota 83-75 on Thursday in Minneapolis -- only if they jelled.

They'd tussled with moments of inefficiency throughout 2011-12. Their on-court vibe occasionally felt more like punk rock than jazz, even though the talented players led the Wolverines to a slice of the Big Ten title that they split with Michigan State and Ohio State.

But what if they clicked more once they left the court? Burke figured "NBA 2K" and "Madden" could provide the platform for a union that would boost the entire program.

NCAA Football 13? Madden 13? NBA 2k13? NBA Live (LOL) 13? Fifa 13?

NCAA looks exactly the same as 12 for me, but i might spring for NBA 2k13. 

The demo for NCAA Football 13 is out now (Released for 360 yesterday and should be out tonight for PS3 around 7 from what I've seen). I don't have it yet since I have a PS3, but for those of you who have downloaded it I figured a thread for discussion is warranted.

It's a pretty big demo with Heisman Challenge and a week 10 sample of Dynasty mode. You can also unlock some jerseys for the game by sharing it with a friend and three Heisman winners to use in the full game. More info here.

I realize the demo was mentioned in the team ratings thread, but just barely. If this is overkill feel free to delete.
