    Apparently on PS3. The creators of this mod have their own online dynasty league.

    It's been said before but all they have to do to is redress the previous year's Madden. It's what they were doing anyway

    I don’t think so? NCAA played a whole lot differently and some could argue it was better gameplay wise

    They always played the same to me. But shit NCAA never made it to next gen and it was almost 8 years ago that the last game came out so maybe I'm misremembering

    Almost sure EA used the same game engine for both. It would be unnecessarily expensive to have two different ones.

    I just hope they somehow don't fuck up the Dynasty mode if they make it again. Theyve been mailing in franchise mode for years on Madden because all they care about is UT

    Backlash was so bad with madden 21 they had to lay out a franchise mode road map for 22 before 21 even came out

    it does look like it will finally be good again in 22 though

    Can someone explain this to me in the most simplistic way possible? I’m illiterate when it comes to this stuff

    I have ncaa 14 on Xbox 360. How do I do this update?

    I remember madden and ncaa playing differently. Like, you could actually run the ball on ncaa. But I suck at madden so there's that.

    You need to have your 360 modded first, then install the program.

    I’m sure the code was the same, but the gameplay still had differences I felt. Also, a long ass time ago

    You’re gonna need a modded Xbox, not sure how easy that is but iirc they sell them fairly cheap on eBay.

    Hopefully once these games are allowed to come back 2K gets in the mix. I trust them to build a quality game much more than EA

    To follow up on this, as someone who doesn’t play PC games. How cheap/expensive can a PC capable of handling most games be?

    Something I may consider purchasing over a next gen console in the next year.

    I had this game for 360, I never realized how awesome or in-depth it was at the time. It was the first 360 game I got. As dumb as this sounds, when I first got the 360 I didn’t realize you could set up up flat, because all the pics had it standing vertical. One day while playing the 360 tipped over randomly and screwed the disc up and I never thought to buy another copy.

    As I posted the other day now it’s selling for 100-200 bucks :(

    I'm putting together a PC worth about 2 grand as recommended by my BIL. From what he's told me the graphics card and CPU are the two most important hardware components. Good graphics cards are in high demand and hard to find for a good price.

    i always hated the "phone call" bits so i vastly prefer ncaa14. its not perfect but i think its the best any of them had. the least tedious for sure.

    College Hoops recruiting was so rewarding. Not like you could just get any recruit you wanted.

    Also career legacy mode is the most fun I’ve had playing a sports game.

    After doing an NCAA Football 14 league with some other TMBers and playing the latest Madden, it amazed me how little playbooks and plays were updated after 7 years. Biggest difference now is RPO.

    South Dakota State > Nevada > Nebraska/Gonzaga was the trajectory. Replacing Few was big shoes to fill, but it had to be done.

    I joined their discord back in the spring/summer and they always post screen shots and previews it’s pretty cool. Just ends up tormenting me though since I have no way to play.
