    More than half of the usual NCAA modes are missing.

    With things like multiplayer mini-games removed, no online, no create-a-payer, no create-a-team, a shaved down (last year's) Dynasty Mode, Shrine, or Campus Legend modes. This is less a full NCAA game, and more a demo of possible years to come.

    All the hype of the new NCAA football game from EA SPorts seemed almost too good to be true, and we've learned that our instincts were right, unfortunately. [Sept 2008, p.88]

    A weak attempt at making college football more accessible to the much-exaggerated, casual Wii demographic. Most players will find this game utterly dull and a waste of their time and money. This is a title that should only be purchased for very young gamers.

    Missing modes -- no online, no Campus Legend, no create-a-player, and no minigames (which is a must for the target audience) -- further illustrate the game's shoved-out-the-door nature.

    this is the worst video game I have ever played. If you like any of the old college football games from the past, don't get this one. The only thing this has in common with those games is the name. It is totally lame and in no way at all fun… Full Review »

    This game is probably not for the full-time gamer, but for my 7 year old part-timer, absolute perfection. His knowledge of football stategy, formations, etc was very limited, but he is now a blitzing, play-calling wizard! I found this website accidentally while looking for some tip to slowing down his passing game. In a nutshell, we have been very happy with this game and recommend to others, especially those with smaller children with an interest, but limited football knowledge.… Full Review »
