    CDJ at NCAA Strategies has received a copy of NCAA Football 09 for the PS3 and is working diligently to provide the community with content. Already you can find some quick impressions/reaction, answering of questions, screenshots on EA Sports World, and there will be much more to come. Head into the Q&A section of the forums there for all the latest coverage. There are separate areas for gameplay, features, online, and misc topics. This is an especially good opportunity for those who ar...

    EA Sports has released details on the full soundtrack that will be featured in Madden 09. Previously only The Offspring, Shinedown, and Rev Theory's songs were known but now all 26 can be found in the complete listing. The highlights of the Madden NFL 09 soundtrack include genre-bending collaborations by Busta Rhymes featuring Linkin Park and Young Dre, The Truth featuring Good Charlotte, as well as returning Madden NFL hit makers Franz Ferdinand, Gym Class Heroes (both with pre-album prere...

    The controversy surrounding the "business" of rosters has been in the public eye more so this year than any before. That in itself threatens the future of having an editing option in games such as EA Sports NCAA Football and NCAA Basketball. This year with the addition of the EA Locker feature and the following announcement hopefully that is about to change. I can now state that the first and only fully named roster file for NCAA Football 09 on the Xbox 360 currently resides in my EA Lock...

    Those who frequent the forum have known since Thursday that I have been heading towards making an announcement related to NCAA Football 09. That announcement now looks as though it will be coming tonight. Just to be clear everything there is to know about NCAA 09 is out there and this will not be a reveal of something new about the game. It does however relate to the game and should be something that the community will be very pleased about. Once an exact time for the announcement can be...

    Along with a "weekly" full blown recap of the Pastapadre Online Dynasty I will be singling out one game each week for a more detailed summary and additional video highlights. I wanted to give the community the opportunity to select what game that will be in week one. Notre Dame and Florida State do not compete in week one and therefore are not listed. Vote in the poll below for the matchup that you would most like to see featured! {democracy:32}...

    The first uploaded videos from NCAA Football 09 to EA Sports World have gone up allowing for the opportunity to see how they look this year. As the site has improved they have also added the ability to embed the videos. Since there are limitations to how many you can store it'll be more useful for short term viewings but is still nice to have nonetheless. Check them out on the NCAA 09 page of EASW or on the actual profile page where you can select them and view on a larger player. I've adde...
  • Vetzballin Online Dynasty Game Result

    The contest held at Vetzballin regarding the week four online dynasty game between DJ Rhude (Syracuse) and Rac (UCF) is now complete as Rac was victorious 35-14. The game was set to be recorded however technical difficulties prevented that from occurring. That is unfortunate given that it sounds as though it would've been entertaining to watch. The winner of the NCAA Football 09 360 faceplate and a copy of Nascar 09 courtesy of Vetzballin will be announced later today (update: added here). ...
  • Brett Favre about to resurrect Madden Curse discussion

    I've often gotten enjoyment out of how the media will grasp at anything in order to get an easy "Madden Curse" story. Expect that to happen again as reports are that Brett Favre is seriously considering a change of mind on retirement. Surely this will somehow be tied in with his appearance on the cover of Madden 09. It would be naive to think EA didn't foresee this as a possible development. Regardless of whether he is playing football or not he seems to have a knack of finding a way to sta...
