Features:
  • Create and manage your team - Take control and make the play
  • Relive Highlights
  • Home Field Advantage, composure ratings, and an all-new fatigue system, plus new trick plays like the Statue of Liberty and Hook and Ladder make this the best NCAA Football game ever
  • Auto Motion Plays - Sounds simple enough, before the QB snaps the ball a receiver will go in motion automatically. Think about plays like WR sweeps, reverses, end-arounds, and other types of misdirection plays have all become exponentially more effective. In previous editions, plays like end-arounds and reverses didn't work because you had to wait for what seemed like an eternity for your WR to get the handoff. But now, with auto motion, that receiver gets the handoff quickly and already has a
  • Trick Plays - If the auto motion plays aren't enough to catch your opponent off guard, then the new trick plays in NCAA Football 08 are guaranteed to do the trick (pun intended). The double pass play has you first throw a screen pass to your wide receiver. When the defense converges on that screen, the ball carrier tosses it to another WR downfield, hopefully for a TD. When used at the right time, a double pass can be deadly effective. We also got the Statue of Liberty and hook and ladder play

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - why cant i create
i think the game is great in all aspects except that EA did away with creating a school put that back on the game EA.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Screen Pass Glitch
I have been a fairly loyal fan of the NCAA Football series since the 2003-2004 version. Most of the other reviewers have hit the high and low points of this version. After having played four to five versions of this game I cannot understand why the haven't changed the code which has the AI team execute a screen pass on third down only to have the running back step out of bounds and loose a couple of yards. Are the play testers at EA that bad? Maybe they just laugh as hard as I do when this happens over and over again. Whatever the case, it would be nice if they actually fixed this glitch.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Awesome game for PS3 minus 30fps rate
I've been buying all of the NCAA Football games for the past 2 years. This one for the PS3 was great with the exception of 2 things.

1. Having 60fps would have been much better than the 30fps.
2. I miss the home crowd effects from previous years and momentum builders. I think they are bringing it back for 09, but it really makes the game more exciting.
The graphics get better and better each year.

To me, this is a must have for college football fans.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good Game ---Way too many turnovers!
Basically the same as '07 --except you can't create your own team but the graphics are light years better! Gameplay is much the same however the number of turnovers in every level except Heisman is ridiculous. Brad Nessman's play by play is behind the action such as in previous editions, commentary is largely verbatim from '07 except for a few new observations which keep Lee Corso's banality intact. The refresh rate on my PS3 stalls often when you break the huddle pausing for a second or two and the most annoying thing is the player's of the game banner which covers much of the screen while the game is still in progress.
Stadium rendition at least for Commonwealth stadium and the other SEC schools is pretty accurate (the ones with which I am most familiar)which is good b/c you get sweeping ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - why the neg reviews???
I bought this game despite the negative reviews and low star rating. Not sure what the fuss is all about - this is a solid game - the gameplay is fantastic and the player rankings is excellent in terms of speed and overall ability - someone at EA did some serious research to provide all the information on the players

Download the player names from ebay (paid only $3.00) and you got a great game. The recruiting is fun - like a reality show - you're doing what the college coaches do - the control of the players in the game is smooth and it feels great to go r2 with a burst of speed after an interception for a touch or a long run or pass.

Only problem I had is that the PS3 Version has no special classic teams like the PS2 Version - big letdown here - wanted to play wiht ... Read More
