Follow the Pastapadre Online Dynasty
While it remains unfortunate that such a limited number of people could be included within the NCAA Football 11 Pastapadre Online Dynasty that doesn't mean everyone else is out in the cold completely. I'll be doing some tie-ins with the site as the dynasty progresses...at the moment we are currently just in the set-up/preseason phase. The Online Dynasty website dedicated page to follow all the stories, results, and stats can be found by clicking here. Also keep an eye on the forum for any anno...
Latest Madden 11 Gameplay Footage
A couple new videos has been released showing off directly captured footage of Madden 11 using the demo matchup courtesy of Gamespot. For anyone who missed the details of the demo, which arrives on July 27th, those can be found here. While there were a lot of gameplay videos that came out of E3 one of the difficulties with that environment is getting the audio across. With these not only is there cleanly captured footage to assess the gameplay from but you can better evaluate the commentary an...
EA Sports Now Going Over The Top With DLC
Much has been discussed regarding Madden's paid downloadable content and inclusion of advertising, but NCAA Football 11 introduces some paid DLC that is extremely questionable as well. The one I ran into last night? If you'd like to be a commish for multiple online dynasties you can now pay to do so. In order to commish an extra two that'll cost $10, an extra four will cost $15. Or you can just pay $30 and get every bonus being offered for the game. This all of course is on top of the "Online ...

NCAA 11 Hard Drive Evaluation
Continuing with the series of Xbox 360 hard drive installation evaluations I've gone through and compared several aspects of the game based on loading times from the disk vs the hard drive. The NCAA Football series has been especially plagued by long loading times, laggy menus, and tedious menu navigation and installing should help with some of that. Unfortunately the loading times for NCAA Football 11 remain abnormally long compared to other 360 sports titles and there is still some noticeabl...

Outside of that no other major issues seem to have been identified to this point. As to rosters there are currently no fully named sets completed though the expectation is that there will b...
