I'd be up for a review...i know the presentation is supposed to be CBS and ESPN integration, but if they didnt edit jersey's / arena's and didnt update dynasty mode I dont think i'll be purchasing this...

Guys...I'm waiting to download it....not available yet. As soon as it becomes available I'll burn it to a DL disk and give you guys a review.

Well I'm probably the first to have it so here is my mini-review.

 

Before playing the game, I was playing 09.

 

Dynasty mode/menus/recruiting as far as I can tell is EXACTLY the same as 09. Although the simulation speed is better I think and overall menu speed is better.

 

The ingame presentation from CBS/ESPN is AWESOME.

 

SEFCU Arena is a generic building.

 

Players are much better this year than in years past. Part of this is because the same engine used in NBA Live is used in this game.

 

Overall, I like this version better and I may actually play some of the games instead of simming and pretending to be a recruiter/GM.

Nope. And also, the roster is as messed up as last year. Wasn't Connelly number 33? Didn't he graduate? Tim is the starting PG. I haven't had any subs yet (going to to try to play with the settings).

 

I'm just glad they sped up the simulating. I got tired of waiting 15mins to sim a season.

Quick question on dynasty mode. You said it was the same...I remember in 09 it was REALLY easy to get top recruits. For example, I played as UA after 2 seasons I was getting all 5-star recruits. It was borderline too easy, since afterwords I basically won every game since the rest of the teams in the AE arent too good. It took a lot of fun out of it. Did they change that at all???

 

Also, I remember in 09 that the best players on mid-majors were their freshman recruits. For example, Lindfors was the highest-rated player on UA, and the best players in the conference (ie Blakley) never made the simulated all-conference teams. Did they manage to fix that??

I didn't notice any of this. I haven't completed a season yet. I only played like 10 minutes.
