NCAA Football 12 Review Central

GameSpot gave the game a 7, and here's why:

"And there's a frequent bug that turns the receivers' route markers into dancing squiggly lines. None of these problems destroy the fun of running a perfect option play, but they do take you out of what should be an immerse experience."

It sounds like the guy played about two games and lost both and hated it.

Appalling. The piece is an embarrasment to both the author and Gamespot.

The writer is so lacking in intellectual curiousity that the thought that what he was seeing might not be a bug at all apparently never occured to him. It also calls into question his claim that NCAA 12 is "virtually identical to last year's offering", since this particular feature has been in the game for 3-4 years.

Gamespot is HORRIBLE for review purposes. They constantly get paid to put up great reviews of big games and will purposely put bad reviews of games that are competition to those games. Gamespot is a fuckin' joke of a site for review purposes.

LMFAO! There's another glitch in the game where when I score a touchdown, it gives me 6 points instead of 7. Then they make me kick a field goal and I don't even get 3 points for it! 2 out of 10.

Me too. Way to really screw the pooch on this one EA! You guys are horrible at creating games!

GameSpot has added a note to the review:

Editor's Note: This review previously contained incorrect information about receivers' routes appearing as squiggly lines. What we believed to be a glitch is, in fact, a feature to show how nervous a quarterback is. GameSpot regrets the error.

Gamepot is not even worth looking at for sports reviews. This is the same group that fired Jeff Gerstman for his critical review of Kane and Lynch. A review that pissed of Eidos who had been pushing the game heavily with advertising money at Gamespot.
