College Football video game to return in 2020
But not as NCAA Football and not by EA Sports.
IMV Gaming is working on a 100% customizable video game that will be released in 2020 on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

that looks like something from the mid 2000s
I'll take a PS2 version if everything is updated.
Think we've heard this one already, haven't we?
Maybe it'll come out and maybe it'll even be ok. Not ready to wave a flag for this, though.
The demise of the EA NCAA Football is one of the great examples of unintended consequences in the modern age. People say "let it burn" but then stuff they like gets burned down too. The O'Bannon decision was cheered by most people as a shot across the NCAA's bow, but most never thought about what would happen if that went through.
Oh well, at least the last one has a Michigan Man on the cover.
This gets posted every few weeks. The project is likely a scam. The game will either never come out or it will be a buggy piece of shit. The developers have no coding experience.
This is the second or third time I've seen someone post about this game.
I never upgraded from an 360 because all I play these days is NCAA14.
The conference finals work as the semis more often then not.
..........I'll buy a half dozen of the buggy POSs and give them away to people to play with!
Cuz....EA, it's in the Lame
That's quite a ways out still. The way video games are made now that is both a lot of time for them to work on it and a lot of time for them to give up on it. I'd love a new ncaa football game, but I'm not gonna hold my breath on this one.
The idea of this actually makes sense tho because you can create a basic college football game without licencing and then let the internet do what it does.
You'll have a file to upload with a realistic NCAA landscape in like a day.
I highly doubt this will work out.
As with all of these endeavors, I don't really care how they look in demo videos. Getting all of the mechanics down for an enjoyable playing experience are way more important, and that always seems to be the issue.
I don't know this company at all, but looking at their pretty bare-bones site and knowing similar outfits, what they'll do is offshore this project to a super-cheap sweat shop in Eastern Europe or India, pump out a mediocre game, and then hope they can cash in enough from pre-sales to make it worth their while.
I'm not optimistic.
