EA Sports NCAA 2007 to not have I-AA

[Matt Trump]

They will not be including our level on this years game for XBox 360 or XBox. What a crock!

From an article on IGN: http://sports.ign.com/articles/702/702461p1.html

On page 3 of the XBox 360 article:

"The variety of teams you'll find in current gen is missing, however, as there are only 119 schools in the game (all 1A schools), and there are no all-time great teams."


Here is a link to the EA Sports Messageboard and a thread about the subject.

What about the PS2 version?

[Marc Wigim]

I don't understand what their reasoning is on this... why would you get rid of something you already have done the work on? EA Sports is really screwing themselves over on this one.

I have tried for the past 20 minutes to find an email address on their website to ask the question about PS2 and had no luck. The only reason we buy those games is because they include I-AA games. I did find an email address for the advertising department and sent them an email asking the question. I signed my name and the company I work for, which happens to be a big sporting event sponsor. Maybe it will finally payoff! I'll let you if I hear anything.

Well I probably wont buy it now, I don't have enough time for video games anyway studying and now my Panthers wont be on it so what's the point? It sucked anyways because you couldn't really play a season as the panthers unless you put them in a 1-a conference I want to play SIU and WKU

[panther2317]

I won't buy the 2007 version for PS2 if they don't have 1-AA teams. Period.

[GonzoCat]

I will continue my policy of not buying any video games, which has been in effect for about 10 years. I think we have an N64 around here somewhere. I like to play free cell.

I agree. My son wouldn't want it. I would bet you if they aren't putting it on XBOX it wont be on PS2. I haven't heard anything yet from them.

Actually, you could substitute the whole Gateway Conference in for one of the I-A conferences (I used the Sun Belt), which worked somewhat. O'course, there is the lack of playoffs, so you have to settle for a bowl game. and other aspects are less than ideal, since the programmers have a 1-a bias.

[panther2317]

I also used the Sun Belt, but after one season, they invited me to join the Big Ten...where I have won 3 straight Big Ten and NCAA Titles.

[KaBullseye15]

im gonna get it cause its still the best football game out there.

[panther2317]

Has anyone asked the PS2 folks if their platform will carry 1-AA teams?

[Panthers to the Bone]

I'm selling my PS2 + games. Anyone interested in buying one?

[panther2317]

Depends on what games you have

I emailed them last week and I still haven't heard a word.
