EA Shows Dominance of the Slums

I will admit, I like EA. I think that they still put out a quality Football game and an amazing Hockey game. But the biggest complaint that I have with them now is trying to over-arcade too many games. If I wanted NBA Jam, I would play it. If I wanted to get attacked trying to drive into the lane, I would play NBA Jam. NCAA March Madness 07 is terrible at best.
I would hope that NCAA March Madness 08 is better than this, but 07 is pretty much a waste of time. The defense mechanics I feel got more screwed up than previous EA Basketball games and that makes the defensive side of the ball excruciating to play through. The offense is a little better with the dunk animations good, but I feel that college is more about shooting than showboating. The shooting can be glitchy and unless you are wide open, there is a great chance that the player will glitch and you will struggle to make a shot.
Overall, I give this game a 2. It has flashes of greatness, but Adam Morrison dunking the ball at the loading screen is about the only flash of greatness that you will see in this game.
