Agreed, typically demos are stripped of most audio because it makes the demo bulkier.

(IE Madden 10)

UH there are gusto periods of audio my friend, they are just in varied and in odd places that don't coincide with gameplay goings ons, such as the fans getting extremely loud when the home team has the ball and getting quiet when the visiting team has possession. These things are not just the "demo" they are going to be in the final game as well I am guessing. There were myriad of audio issues like this in last years game.

I have another huge problem with this game:

You can only sub players who play the same position as the player your subing out unless you call a timeout and manually sub a player in yourself. So basically you don't have control of your teams substitutions unless you call timeouts. For instance UNC has one SF on the roster on this demo, you cannot sub him out unless you burn a timeout. Yes they have done it again, a game that you don't have full control your substitutions.

Played the demo, reminds me of more Live 10, can't take anymore basketball whether it be live,2k or college lol I HATE SPORTS GAMES now lol.

Dude the audio takes away too much space and im sure its not going to be retail accurate. Thats why its a stripped down demo, but whatever.

Continue to be disappointed from not finding your crowd fix in a 200mb DL

Your right, the demo will not have space for the full versioned audio files, but the audio files that are running on this demo are innacurate in many ways related to whats happening on the court. So did they make the demo with audio files that don't operate properly? This is a stripped down version yes, but how does that explain the crowd responces being miscued? Last years game had bad audio, so what makes you think the final copy will have correct audio in the right places, reguardless of the amout of audio files present?

You need to ask EA that, but to expect it to work like a retail is ridiculous

I just played 4 games and I must say I'm completely disappointed. This game is very robotic and unrealistic.

Someone said it a few pages back, the PG can do the same things the C can. It just seems artificial with no identity. I honestly can't tell the difference between players - and I'm a big college basketball fan. All the players seem very generic.

I also can't tell which player has the ball when I'm dribbling..it's very hard to read. Also, still no name underneath the player when the CPU has the ball either.

A big disappointment. I will not purchase this game nor rent it.....sorry!
