Also, from the screen shot above it would appear that they didn't include the gold trim on the numbers. Why???

As my dad always tells me, "thats just being lazy. C'mon man!"

I was originally planning on getting both, but it seems like every time something new comes out about NCAA 13 lately, it is met with more disappointment than excitement.

well said my friend ...i swear you and i think very much alike atleast when it comes to video game football

like i've said before june 4th WILL be judgement day for me and NCAA 13 ....if the change in madden isnt also in NCAA i will not be buying both for the first year in a loooonngg time....(i hope ncaa 13 is holding out on us)...

So this game looks like 09? Ummm I will have to respectfully disagree.

The thing is, they've probably got these colors matching down to the pantone level in the game, and it's lighting/lack of proper reflection/not emulating the materal well or something that causes many of these kinds of complaints.

besides adding new unis, what exactly did the art team do this year?

The gold trim could be there, it may just not be visible given where the lighting is on that uniform.

I agree that the NCAA always has an issue with colors, but I think that has to do with the HDR lighting. If you look at screenshots from NCAA 11 and compare it with NCAA 12 (which introduced the HDR lighting), the colors seem a lot more washed out in 12.

I did a quick google search and this is the best example I can come up with using Miami:

NCAA 11 (also from our very own Playmakers I believe):


NCAA 12:


While NCAA 12 looks superior due to the lighting, I think it's also the reason that the colors are wrong. Look at the orange in 11 compared to 12. 12 seems more washed out.

I believe the same will happen with Madden 12 and 13 as well since this new lighting will be in Madden 13.

Madden 12:


Madden 13:


So either Madden 12's colors were too rich or Madden 13 may have that washed out look like the NCAA series has had.

Just a thought.

Player models?

This thread is pure madness. Just pure madness.

Had to say it.
