NCAA 07 Demo on Xbox360 now available!
- Thread starter Queasy1
- Start date
The demo weighs in at 1.05 GB. I downloaded it late last night but didn't get a chance to play it. Don't even know if I'll get to when I get home tonight because I'm supposed to be heading out of town.
Reviews of the demo have been mixed from what I've read.

Got to try it out. I hope this demo was based off of an earlier build because the stadium intro was jerky and the aliasing (jaggies) was pretty bad. Other than that, the game played very well.
Corso and Co. still are using the same lines from 5 years ago. :/
The kicking mechanic is completely different now though. You use the right analog stick to kick similar to how you use the analog stick to swing the clubs in the Tiger Woods golf game. It's not that bad but the way they have it is setup, I don't see why you would change it from a button pushing. It is still basically the same thing. Pull back to start the power meter...push forward to try and get the most power. The only thing different is how straight (or not) your manipulation of the analog stick helps determine the accuracy of the kick.

Thats so lame. EA needs to stepup big time. Next years version had better be much improved if they want my money.Queasy1 said:
I also tried it out last night. I was impressed because the game was better than any of the games on the current gen systems...but I could tell this was a scaled down version of the real game. If you just look at screenshots that have been all over the place, you can see a big difference from the demo. Also, I never saw anyone in the crowd to the tomahawk chop or the gator chomp. Every analyst I have heard has said that NCAA07 will blow Madden06 away in terms of gameplay and graphics. If I base my judgement on the demo...I would say that person was lying because Madden06 looks 10 times better than the NCAA07 demo that has been released. That has to mean the demo was a stripped down version of the real game. So...I guess I was disappointed in the demo...but I'm hoping that will just set me up for being blown away by the real game.
RTR!!!

Some are saying that the demo was based off of an earlier build of the game. Which explains why it doesn't look all that hot.
The gameplay is still there but people are expecting knockout graphics with these 'next-gen' consoles.

1 gig download and it sucks.... hmmm how much space is on a dvd?
that should give you some indication of how the game will be next week.
I would think that they would want the best demo possible, demos are only for marketing purposes anyway.

Yeah...all of the experts that have reviewed this game have had nothing but incredible things to say about it. I have no doubt in my mind that the demo is nowhere near as good as the game itself. How could so many experts be wrong...especially when talking about the incredible graphics this game is supposed to have? I'm just gonna use this demo to help me get used to the gameplay and the controller before the real thing gets here.Queasy1 said:

You mean you can burn the demo's on CD's? I thought that the 360 premium edition came with a hard drive to download the demos. I only have the core version so all this time I have not been downloading the demos because I didn't think I could.
the 360 doesnt have a dvd-r
you cant burn anything on a 360
it would be nice though
all that stuff on your hard drive? gotta go get a new one, or just burn some dvds
you need to get that hard drive.
save yourself the headache.
the download on the xbox live marketplace was 1 gig
i asked how much space is on a dual layer dvd and someone said 9 gig
20 gig hard drive
1 gig demo.
WE NEED BIGGER HARD DRIVES

No, you have to have the hard drive to download the demos. You can't burn them to CDs.spb34 said:
