Clearly some of you assholes are less desperate than me. They could port NCAA 14, slap a new title and a $100 price tag on it and I'd still line up at midnight for it. It's been a fucking decade ffs.

Ewers is Texas' third EA Sports CFB cover athlete, joining Ricky Williams and Brian Orakpo. That's tied for second-most with USC, behind Michigan who has four. Pretty cool.

blOU and A&M fans will not be thrilled, having to buy a game with Ewers on the cover 😁

So if they continue on with this collage approach for the NCAA cover, how many years will it be before Texas does t make the cover and how long till A&M does?

 

The collage idea is great NIL marketing because it’s not paying any one player the premium to be on the front and it allows EA to make sure they can highlight both the top teams/fan bases overall and still drop in here or there a lower tiered NIL payout to smaller names in other payouts.

The problem with approach the is the A&Ms of the world are going to be limited on how often they will ever get a player on the cover.

They aren’t a big enough brand to get thrown in as background filler over other SEC teams. They aren’t going to be ranked high enough to be featured in the first few tiers of player images and they aren’t the main regional draw now in their conference so it doesn’t even move the needle from an SEC style secondary regional design…

 

The real question needs to be who makes it into the cover collage first: A&M, MS St, or Auburn?

We will not make the cover, and then later make the cover again...before aggy ever makes the cover for the first time.

I've only ever played all of the COD and Madden on my PS4. I don't want to get a PS5 just to play COD and NCAA '25. XBOX sucks because their controllers are shitty. 

Meh, I can understand where you are coming from but I have the Elite Series 2 controller and its been great for me for years now. I love the bumpers and joystick sensitivity customization. Understandably, that isn't much use in NCAA but really useful in COD. I also don't own a next gen console so I will have to decide which one to get once the game comes out. Hell, back on the old forum, I used to play in an online PS3 league with some people on here. I just don't want to buy a new console so I am hoping for a port to PC.

That's where I'm at. I don't want to buy a new console. I just can't justify spending another $400 on one that I barely use today. It's been a minute since I've played COD and Resident Evil, and I'm not old but I'm yelling at the clouds about this change.

Well the Aggie screenshot thread should be fun once they dial up. That’s something.

Eh, I bit the bullet and did it in anticipation of this game. It really is worth it imo. Even the stock game it comes with (Spider Man 2) is badass. I got the digital only version since I will likely only buy NCAA and GTA VI next year.

Yeah, I'll probably bite the bullet since I'm play the NCAA '25 and COD games, and maybe Resident Evil if I feel like going through it again. I'll definitely play Spider-man 2 since I haven't yet. Do you happen to know if the Arkham games are on it?

My girlfriend asked me what I wanted for my birthday, I said a PS5 bundle pack and NCAA football (disapproval face) I said I’m getting it no matter what.  (She hates games because all one of her kids does its play online, I haven’t had a PS4 in 4 years or so because I gave it away)  I say ok how about a weekend getaway trip to like Fredericksburg all bills. She’s like sure!  I go being nice, I’ll switch you and pay for the weekend getaway and you buy me the PS5 just babe, she’s like no.  Women have no understanding of cost things..  I guarantee a full weekend in Fredericksburg cost us atleast double my PS5 with the NCAA game.

Yeah him amongst others. I mean the one where he’s solo for standard edition 

No secX3 logo so I'm guessing it's not.

I think you can get all of the older ported versions from the PS store for $59 if I am not mistaken, but I dont think they have a new console version.

No way this game will be on sale in a couple months. 70 dollars is the norm and I bet it would be December when it is on sale for 55 dollars. 

The latest madden was on sale within months, same for COD. 
 

released August 17th here is October price

I get what you’re saying because I have Xbox game pass for this reason I don’t care about waiting a couple of months for them to be released on there. I just don’t think this game will be like that we have been waiting for years for this
