Would it be a good idea for NCAA to scrap the current game and start from scratch????

I doubt they even think about doing it, but what do you guys think. The one game I remember going this route was the Triple Play/MVP franchise and it turned out to be excellent. I guess it would also have to be agreed upon with the Madden team since they primarily use the same engine, and with the overall success of Maden I don't see that happening. Regardless, I just wish the NCAA team would go back to the last gen NCAA games and see what they did right. I mean it's sickening to see how great other games are on this gen consoles and to see where NCAA/Madden are. Who would think that moving to a far superior console would result in significantly worse gameplay? Look at the NHL series. It took them a couple years and they figured it out. Why can't NCAA? Something needs to be done. WE NEED TO GET BACK TO THE LAST GEN GAMEPLAY (who would think we'd be saying that).

All we will do is exchange a new set of bugs for an old set of bugs. More quality control seems to be the issue this year.

I rather not see another NCAA '07 with basically no features, which would likely happen if they "started over". it would be best to just continue on with what they have and improve it.

Agreed. '07 was boring as hell.

Let's hope that they can fix it. Every year there are major glitches and they seem to get worse and worse...

I agree. I think this game can be really good with some fixes.

Yes. They need to scrap it and start over. Release the game for 2012. Otherwise the game will continue to be garbage.

Child Please.

All they have to do is focus one year on getting back to their roots of the PS2 version and quit with the stupid gimmicks and intentionally breaking stuff that worked before, mix in a little qc and they will have a winner.

Exactly. They just need to get back the features the old games had instead of making stuff like Season Showdown that has no real effect on gameplay.

Take your pick. Season Showdown, or medical redshirts and sanctioning?

They need to take the NHL 08 approach and take a year off from adding features, and just fix the gameplay. That's the main reason NHL 09 was Sports GOTY and NHL 10 will likely be even better.
