Really Bad

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.

Pretty Good Game

Well this game was fun to play. I liked the fact you could change a lot of the options for the AI and game options like speed, rules, injuries, etc. The thing that I don't like is that I wish EA would come up for a system for all their sports games including college where you could go online, get a complete roster with players names included, not just their number, download the updated roster and let you use it to play offline in Career or Dynasty mode. The graphics were pretty good but I wish I could have made the players a little bigger. There are plenty of camera angles to choose from. If you like college basketball you should like this game, go UofA Wildcats!
