OT: EA NCAA video games coming back??
Blowing up on twitter. EA posted a crpytic video message on a page that was inactive for years.
Oh please please please happen.

My other thought there, was that if you do it that way it should only be a once every few years release, can't get away w/ doing it every year. Build up demand for it.

Yeah then let users generate accurate rosters.

I have NCAA 14, Madden 25 and a PS3. I still have a PS3 because I love NCAA dynasty mode and uploading the draft classes to my Madden franchise. Without a new NCAA game, I cannot do this on any of the newer versions of Madden.
I will not purchase a new version of Madden or a PS4 until either a patch is available to migrate those draft classes or a new version of NCAA comes out.

I took Howard University and Grambling to national titles. Admittedly, this was during a dark period after I was laid off from a dotcom and I spent about a year drinking, eating tortilla chips and reading f*ckecompany.com.
I also realized that a dynasty only lasted 60 seasons. That's when I knew I had to go outside again.

The actual title of the Facebook page is "EA Sports NCAA Football"
The cover photo on the page highlights NCAA'14, but that was the last release. The page isn't year specific.

This would make me buy a PS4. Or maybe. Just maybe. A PC release? I know, I'm asking too much (my GTX 980 Ti is salavating at the thought)

The PS3/360 controls were too clunky and it felt like they never got it right.

Man this would be great...I played 2001-2005 on PS2 religiously. We had an 8 man season that went for something like 10 NCAA seasons while I was in college. I won three national titles with Michigan in my tenure...lost in two other National Championships (one to FSU, one to Clemson, both users). I believe that was on NCAA 2003.

NCAA FOOTBALL: 09, 10, 11, 12,13, & 14
NCAA BASKETBALL: 09, & 10.
Haven't had the need to buy a new game since

The NCAA football games got repetitive and the 2014 wasn't even fun in my opinion. I would rather have the college basketball game back.
January 11th, 2016 at 2:28 PM ^
that would be so killer yes please
January 11th, 2016 at 2:36 PM ^
I would consider buying it. As I think about it now, it has been a good ten years or so since I played NCAA on a regular basis, and probably five or so since I played it much at all save for sporadic occasions. To see what EA would do with the game now is intriguing to me admittedly. Also, my kids are now an age where they might actually want to try their hand at it for five minutes, so there's that.
January 11th, 2016 at 11:14 PM ^
it was really a far better game pre-bells and whistles, it hit it's peak in the PS2/XBox era for sure... the idea of having to spend all my time recruiting in season and starting out as an offensive coordinator was just too much
January 11th, 2016 at 2:55 PM ^
No, EA isn't reviving 'NCAA Football'

Article conveniently leaves out that there was no caption in the original post. Was just the video until it blew up.
Like I said, I'm definitely sure they posted after 2 years of silence for one game. If it was truly about the "big game" tonight (romp incoming), wouldn't it have made more sense to do it last year when it was the first playoff championship?
January 11th, 2016 at 4:31 PM ^
So I have you on record for two predictions:
1 - Taysom Hill will be our QB in the fall
2- EA will return the football series soon
January 11th, 2016 at 4:36 PM ^
obviously they are not allowed to talk about it yet
January 11th, 2016 at 2:59 PM ^
Supposedly they are now trying to make the game without the NCAA licensing (how they made it before), therefore they have to get every school to sign a contract individually and there is one school that is holding out....Ohio State
January 11th, 2016 at 3:11 PM ^
Fuck them. Leave them out. Make it some generic red and gray team that happens to be from the worst state in the union.
January 11th, 2016 at 4:34 PM ^
you could imagine if they were actually left out of the game? Their fans would be pissed while everyone else would be dying laughing.
January 11th, 2016 at 3:17 PM ^
From that video, it's nice to see the Michigan players touch the banner now. Does the visiting team still magically appear out of the north end zone at the big house?

please please please come back. NCAA 14 dynasty is unplayable without the playoff.
January 11th, 2016 at 4:48 PM ^
Yes I can't wait for another stagnant EA game that will be fresh for about two months before you realize its an empty shell of a game unless you pour money into the DLC or "cards" or w/e EA will come up with.
Would be much better news if anyone would take the reins of the sports games (look at the NBA 2k series, game is awesome and in comparison EAs NBA game is shit).

The gameplay in Madden 16 for PS4 is amazing. I can only dream of the same gameplay/graphics in a new College Football game.
I've always wanted an updated NCAA Baksetball game as well. I always thought it would be cool/challenging to go play tough road games in the B1G.
