NCAA Football 12 Impressions
NCAA Football 12 has experienced its share of ups and downs in the lead-up to its Tuesday release.

First Set of NCAA Football 12 Screenshots
Here is the first group of screenshots  (some of which were specifically requested) taken directly in NCAA Football 12. Within replays and images NCAA 12 is unmatched in its stunning visuals as far as sports game go - at least until Madden NFL 12 arrives. It has even produced what is easily my favorite screenshot ever (comes out of the CSU-COL game posted earlier as a video) which has generated a level of response I've never witnessed before towards a single game image. Unfortunately EA'...

Amazon Now Offering Big Promotional Credit on NCAA Football 12
Amazon has a tendency to run their own promotional offers on video games and often that is a credit to be used on future purchases. As mentioned earlier today that $20 promotional credit for Madden NFL 12 makes it essentially $40 to get the game new (and in turn makes the CE an even worse value). Amazon offered the same deal last year for Madden but until today had not offered a credit for NCAA preorders. The company has just announced that NCAA Football 12 preorders will receive a $20 p...
