If you can overlook this, you will be rewarded with a pretty good college football game. The players do not have the rough polygon look like the players in GameDay, but they also don't have clarity. It seems as if the rain has picked up since you started this drive at your own yard line. It has been a sloppy four quarters of play. The clock reads eight seconds and it is third and goal at the two yard line. You wasted your last timeout earlier on a risky pass over the middle for a yard gain.
As you approach the line of scrimmage, you know this will be your last chance to put the ball in the end zone.
It is now or never! The referee places the ball in the mud and runs off. The clock starts to tick. You start a receiver in motion and realize that the defense is in man-to-man coverage. You think to yourself, "Do I have time to audible? No way, I have to go with the option like the coach said. The clock ticks. As you ready yourself to snap the ball, you find your thumb is swirling in a pool of sweat that has made its way to your game pad. Boy, that better not mess this up.
You snap the ball and run to your right; your halfback stays just out of harm's way waiting for the pitch. You start to go into a hole inside, but it fills quickly so you keep going outside.
The safety bites on the move that you made. He has the ball and it looks like he has a chance to make it around the corner. With a hard stiffarm and a dive he slides into the end zone. The clock runs out and you kick the extra point. The controls for the game are pretty easy to master after you play for a little while. I highly suggest that you go out and purchase an 8-button game pad or controller.
This is a hint for my wife. You can play with your standard 4-button game pad but you miss out on some of the special moves that you can do with the 8-button Juke, hurdle, backpedal. I found that the players were very responsive and the game played smoothly almost all of the time. I was really impressed with how the players had trouble with the different weather conditions. If you want to have a battle, try playing against either Nebraska or Ohio State in the rain or snow in their stadium.
I was also impressed with the tackling in the game. Offensively, I found that running can be hard and fast. The holes open up for a second and then close quickly. If you hit them fast enough, you can pick up some yards; otherwise you had better hope you can get to the outside. Passing, on the other hand, is something that must be practiced. The receivers sometimes have a mind of their own.
They will start a route and then change it for some unknown reason. The quarterback will lead them sometimes and then throw it short the next time. I highly suggest that you practice with a decent team before trying your luck with an unranked college. On the main menu you will have some interesting choices to make.
You can play an exhibition game between two teams of your choosing. You can play in Dynasty mode, which is where you are hired as the coach of a team and then you start your career at the school. You can play in tournament mode where you play in a 4-, 8-, or player tournament.
Great Games mode is where you can relive 40 of the greatest matchups in college history. I e-mailed EA about the fact that you cannot save a game halfway through in Dynasty mode. You can also set up a playbook for your team, selecting the plays of your choice. My only complaint is that you cannot design your own plays.
A play editor would have been nice. The graphics for the instant replay are cheesy with a capital C. I think that EA could have left the replay out or maybe used a different camera angle. Speaking of camera angles, you have eight of them to choose from: Upper deck, blimp, EA Sports, isometric, defense, helmet, coach, and press box.
I found that the upper deck one was the easiest for me to handle because it reminded me of the Madden games on my old SEGA. A college football game would not be complete without the fight songs for the schools. NCAA Football 99 has them all. It also has the chants from the crowd when you get down by the end zone. I thought that this was a nice touch because it gives you the sense that the crowd is behind you all the way. The sound of the players hitting each other was done very well also.
Just like it should be. Documentation is skimpy. You basically have to experiment with the different options. I think the average game player will not have any problems getting the game to work because the game is fairly easy to understand and the game menus are self-explanatory.
NCAA Football 99 is probably the best college football game on the market right now. It is fun to play and can be very engrossing. I gave the game an 88 because I feel that the graphics could have been a little better like Madden 99 and it would have been nice to have a play editor. The game is very realistic in its play, and the play calling is close to real-life football. So I really do know how to play. EA Sports is stomping back onto the college gridiron to make a lot of noise.
Not only is NCAA Football '99 belter in every way than last year' game, it offers the complete college football package thanks to fantastic graphics and really awesome features. EA really needed to step up its graphical game to match last year's GameBrcaker, and boy did it ever. NCAA Football' players look incredible, spoiling clean textures, extremely detailed player uniforms, and fluid movements.
There's never a glimpse of pixelization in these guys--even when the camera zooms in! EA also added new' animations to this year's contest, including wraparound tackles, one-handed receptions, and much more. The new player models are just the tip of the iceberg. NCAA '99 also contains the most extensive create-a-play feature in the history of console-football gaming. Not only do you assign running back and receiver routes, but you also make blocking assignments for your linemen.
You can save your progress in whatever point you like within the game, not only on the official checkpoints offered by the game. Home Emulators Platforms Games. All PSX Games. The second component is the Ncaa 99 game itself to play on the emulator.
