Madden Or Ncaa
« on: July 14, 2006, 08:50:00 AM »
I would like to get a football game for the 360, but only want to shell out the $60 for one of them.  Should I buy Madden 07 or NCAA 2007?  Which one do you think is better as far as graphics and gameply is concerned?

madden only if they put in more features and better gameplay. But it's hard to pull away from NCAA. I love the college football atmosphere.

I must admit that I haven't done the research myself, but on many of the boards* I have been to pretty much everybody goes for NCAA over Madden.  Apparently the gameplay is much more realistic.


*The boards I visit are usually trying to find the most realistic slider settings for both games (as well as 2k sports games) and usually do a pretty good job

If I were you I would get NCAA, since i'm not you I will get both cause I must create myself as a freshman and work my way through my career

On a side note, I am trying to decide between the xbox and 360 versions due to price and features

it will probably be $30 on ebay a few weeks after launch like any other sports game. i'd say wait a few weeks and grab the 360 version dirt cheap.

Demos are available for NCAA and last years Madden, so you can at least get some of the flavor of the games.  That said, gameplay is different in that you can run options with flea flickers and the like in NCAA but note really in Madden.  I think that you tend to get more mismatched in college football games as well.

If you like option plays and running with the QB, NCAA is for you.  If you like traditional NFL style football, go with Madden.


Or, If you favorite NFL team is like the 49ers, and your favorite college team is like the Oregon Ducks.  Then you should probably get NCAA
