NCAA Football 09: To Buy or Not to Buy?

[BlyGilmore]

Forseen - you certainly can. the big question here though is why were Pasta's (and others) rosters messing up? Was it some flaw we can replicate and avoid? Or is it some kind of deeper issue (unstable rosters).

The fact these issues are popping up BEFORE the game is even officially released is troublesome to say the least.

In my mind at this point using named rosters is a gamble. If you have no problem with your dynasty (online or off) potentially dying, go for it. But I think you have to at least consider the chance a dynasty could die down the road because of the rosters that were used at the beginning.

ive seen a friend edit the rosters himself without the internet....no problems.

What I don't understand is, why would one have to be offline to edit rosters. Im not talking about after downloading padre's or whoevers..im talking about just putting in the names yourself.

It doesn't make sense why it has to be offline it shouldn't matter imo. Maybe there is something im missing and if so please correct me cause im confused about this whole editing roster offline situation.

Guys, I want to make everyone aware to the fact we have updated the rosters section with the very latest info from Adam Thompson, who was kind enough to clarify a few things for us.

Until there is a patch and the results of that I will not buy. It was a for sure day one purchase untill I came on these forums yesterday.

It has me worried about Madden......

Good article!

Reading through the forums for this information can be dreadful, and I'm pretty sure all the forthcoming reviews from the gaming press will likely omit any mention of the finer points...

Operation Sports could distinguish itself above the rest with more features articles like this.

For the first time in a long time I'm not buying it tonight or tomorrow. I am going to wait to see what sort of items the patch fixes.
