Checked those out too and they're the same. It's all good though because I always go in and make ND's roster accurate anyway. Just sucks the numbers got switched so I can't make eilar and gaIII both #4 anymore...unless someone has a trick for doing so.

Not sure if this helps, but saw this on Op Sports - those guys make us look like the pinnacle of civilization.

Also couldn't find any Xbox 360 rosters sifting threw all that trash... anybody got a decent one they can share the gamertag for?

I have gotten this game every year since playstation 1 came out. I am just curious if everybody thinks its worth it as I have yet to do so this year. I don't know why I haven't yet it just seems like its better every two years now so...What say you?

I was playing the dynasty mode today... was looking for a QB. Guess who I signed...
none other than "Thomas Reese".
Note: His 40 time was 4.68 sooo...

I like it... if you like the series you'll like it alot... if you are casual... get 12.

I heard recruiting was easier... played with it today before work... yeah, over the course of three quick sims of three different dyansties (again just to try out the new system) not so much... I even took it all the way down to "Freshman" on the third go rond just to see what would happen... I couldn't get many at all five stars to really take ND seriously and for the most part three stars or less were the only ones to jump on board...

this is a good thing as it ups the challenge of a series I mastered years ago, but it certainly does not feel easier as many seem to be claiming on other sites.

I really like the gem and bust thing too with scouting. I also heard that the cpu tells you who is a gem and bust right off the bat by no name schools only going after certain five stars (busts) and big name schools all going after three stars (gems)... I definitely did not see this...

I had a five star athlete that was 85 overall and Bama, UGA and LSU were fighting me for him.... I scouted the kid and he feel all the way to 74... they still kept on him, as did others... whereas I had one Ol who was only looked at by me... he was a 3 star and 66 overall... because no one else showed interest I assumed he was a bust and even worse than 66... I scouted him and found that he was really a "gem" and actually rated 74 overall...

so yeah, I am seeing stuff contrary to what i have seen written.


Overall, definately liking it... but I always do even though I know they can do better.

Simulated UM @ ND for background noise while I caught up on some paperwork:
1st drive, UM drove to about the ND40 before Shembo had a pick6
Golson ran for 2 TDs and threw another to DaVaris
Manti had a nice pick in the endzone

Play of the game, Chase knocked the crap out of Denard on a 4th and Inches when UM was knocking on the door...
Good times good times.

Just got it last night. Had a blast playing against my roommate. We thought it was super easy to throw interceptions, I threw 7 picks and he threw 5. But its prolbably becuase we both just suck.

No real complaints so far. Thought it was strange how much white is in ND stadium though. Seemed like there was more white than navy blue, and there was NO green at all. This is obvious nbd, just an observation that baffled me.

GO IRISH!!!

I love it so far. The read option is nasty if you read it right, the new passing is much more realistic. I think it's faster, and smoother. I also like the scouting on the recruiting stuff. So far, first time in a while I have thought they made some MAJOR improvements.

Other than the atrocious brown ND helmets at night I am really liking the game thus far.

Question, I checked out all of the rosters listed above, and every one has GAIII changed back to #34. This isn't a big deal in a trade for all the names, but is SUPER annoying to me because there is no way to get him #4 back while Hardy has it, since double numbers have to be programmed by EA. (I know the trick to create one player, but really don't feel like recreating GAIII from scratch). Also, Carlisle is changed to Plantz in all of the rosters I tried to download, with his number changed as well. Anybody find any rosters where numbers are correct?

yeah te read option is vastly improved... and the best part is if you don't read it right you get blown up, if you do, you tend to get good yardage... aside from that though the running game is MUCH harder... I just played MSU in week 3 and man, it was hard to gain ANy kind of positive yardage from any other kind of running play...

finally played it today, read option with Golson=automatic first down. also, using the pass directiom makes one on one coverage a catch every time

Has everyone updated the stadium sounds? Nothing like a little dropkick Murphys before kickoff or crazy train on third down.

For those playing the game. The OS community rosters will be out within a few days. They are very good rosters to use and have names, ratings, and equipment updates. I'll post the 360 gamertag to use when downloading them once they are available.

I'm waiting for skyflame at IGN.

He has had incredible accuracy over the years.

When is his estimated time of completion? and 360 or PS3? I have used pastapadre and the OS community the past few years who consistently put out solid rosters but would'nt mind taking a look at someone else's reputable work.
