NCAA Football 14 Demo Proves Successful
Based on the results of the poll posted last week the demo for NCAA Football 14 has proven valuable for consumers who may have been on the fence about a purchase and beneficial for EA Sports in creating some encouraging word-of-mouth in the weeks leading up to release. A full 50% of the over 4300 respondents cast their vote in the "Encouraged - More likely to buy" column. That is a huge percentage for a poll of this nature. On the flip side the "Less likely to buy" choice was limited to o...

TeamBuilder Update for NCAA Football 14 Has Gone Live
The new version of TeamBuilder has launched for NCAA Football 14. Unfortunately it contains no new features but it does provide an opportunity to start creating teams - and those crafted in prior years continue to carry over - and examine all the team rosters and complete player ratings. This is the fourth straight year then that TeamBuilder has gone largely untouched by EA Sports.

The new Coordinator camera angle seems to be a big hit as well. Whether it's enough after a few years of disappointing efforts is the question. Vote in the poll below...

Learning About NCAA Football 14 Through CPU vs CPU Gameplay
There is probably no better way to discover how the CPU plays in a sports game than letting two AI controlled teams go head-to-head and thus avoiding any user influence. Doing so obviously does not provide much insight into how a game will perform in a head-to-head pairing but instead is useful for learning where there may be holes in the AI primarily relating to single player.

NCAA Football 14 Season Mode Introduced
EA Sports today for the first time publicly discussed Season mode in NCAA Football 14 via developer blog posting. It's no wonder the news comes just hours before the demo release and the week after E3 given there isn't a whole lot to say about it. As anyone would expect the mode strips out all the management necessities that make up Dynasty mode. Rather than needing to assign tasks to the CPU and have them simmed they'll just be completely absent from the picture with the only focus being...
