NCAA Football 2005

"...it's hard to ignore the lack of visual punch that's seen in the other two football games out this year. This game needs a new engine for next year and a shakeup of creative juice to progress the gameplay."

"NCAA Football 2005 is still a great college football game, but longtime fans will have trouble shaking the feeling that the series isn't quite living up to its awesome potential."

"The smell of open air stadiums and pads are back in the air. And the Football video game wars begin anew."

"For the first time in a football videogame, the game day atmosphere directly affects players’ on-field performances. Track the crowd’s impact on your players to see if they can withstand the pressure and find key personnel mismatches with the new Match-Up Stick."

"The game sounds simply fantastic; everything from the commentary, to the loud crowd noises, to the grunting and clashing of pads gives a great feel to the game."
