EA has tweaked the already massive dynasty mode, which lets you create or play a coach, and handle the team for a set number of years (provided you aren't ridden out of town on a rail). You can create your own school, your own team, or use an existing

Frame rate aside, the Xbox does look the best visually as everything is smooth and the textures are bump mapped ever so slightly.

While the PS2 version looks solid and runs smoothly, the Xbox version suffers from ugly framerate issues. Never mind the superior textures - during most plays the framerate will slow down a bit, while on running plays the pace practically drops to 15 fps.

The sound this year is exceptional and easily stands out as the biggest aesthetic addition to this year’s game.

This is the deepest football game to ever be released on the planet. From players transferring because of a lack of playing time, from your star quarterback cheating on his exams, if you want the most true to life, exciting football game available, NCAA

First the little things. They tweaked the already deep and massive dynasty mode. In a nutshell, dynasty mode lets you create or play a coach, and handle the team for a set number of years (provided you aren't ridden out of town on a rail). You can create

On the professional side of things, the football war is heating up. With Madden NFL 2005 going against the outstanding ESPN NFL 2K5, all the attention is directed to that arena, while college football just moves along as always. Such is the case with

One of the main features added to NCAA Football 2005 is the new Home Field Advantage factor. Taking into account a team's popularity, along with their rabid fans and atmosphere, certain teams have the advantage of playing with the ‘12th man' to give

The passing game is out of whack. There are way too many dropped passes. The offensive line's blocking on running plays is horrendous at times. I felt it neccessary to go back and change the

Definitely a notable improvement over last year's offering and the new Home Field Advantage feature is marvelous, but the recycled visuals and mere handful of other additions may deter those who already own 2004 from purchasing the game.

"EA Sports, It's in the game!" I can concur to EA's motto after their current production of sports games. EA Sports continues their ongoing ability to develop top notch, high quality, "A" rated graphics with NCAA Football 2005. This football title

The biggest improvement (aside from Xbox Live capability for box owners) is the Home Field Advantage feature. It makes the crowd interact, support, boo and shout with respect to how bad or well you or your opponent is doing. For schools with strong

Precision offense, or the lack thereof in recent Super Bowl memory, has more than ever proven that a solid defense can win championships. Electronic Arts has curtailed this theory as the cornerstone for the innovations to their 2005 football products.

In all, it felt like the players had a slightly lower center of gravity. This allows not only for a good running back to become extra shifty through better lateral movement (without even having to use the juke button), but it also gives defenders an
