Video Gaming News - July 2004
Redwood City, CA (July 14, 2004) - EA Sports today announced that NCAA
Football 2005 hits store shelves today.
From EA Sports:
Last year, NCAA Football 2004 sold more than one million copies and was the
second best-selling football game in North America behind Madden NFL 2004. NCAA
Football 2005 marks the first EA SPORTS title on Xbox Live.
For the first time in a football videogame, the game day atmosphere around the
field and in the stadium will affect the players on the field in NCAA Football
2005. Visiting teams will have to fight crowd noise when calling plays while
home teams can play off of the thunderous support from their fans. Featuring the
Top 25 Toughest Places to Play, players can compete in the most elite stadiums
across the country including LSU’s “Death Valley,” “The Swamp” at Florida,
Michigan’s “Big House,” and Nebraska’s “Sea of Red.”
With the new Match-Up Stick, gamers can track the crowd’s impact on each player,
then find and exploit key personnel mismatches. Players can use the Composure
Meter to recognize which players are rattled and to determine the players they
can count on in critical situations. After big plays, players can celebrate in
style with new team-specific fan celebrations like the Gator Chomp and Texas
Hook ‘Em Horns. NCAA Football 2005 also features the deepest Dynasty Mode to
date where players can build up their schools, transform young players into
rising stars and monitor program integrity.
Calling the game from the booth for NCAA Football 2005 is the award-winning
broadcast team of Brad Nessler, Kirk Herbstreit and Lee Corso.
NCAA Football 2005 features online gameplay* on PlayStation 2 computer
entertainment system and Xbox Live. Players will have access to voice
communication, tournaments, ladders and much more. For more information about
