Less than an hour ago we were graced with our first Bringing it Home XBLM content which offered up gamer pictures and a theme. And now we're happy to announce that we have our first Bringing it Home demo! Up for download off the Marketplace is a NCAA Football 08 demo coming in at 684MBs of what we expect to be full of football fun. Though, this cannot be guaranteed. We welcome football fans to give the demo a download, tell us what you think and share your overall impressions as we aren't overly familiar with the genre. Heck, maybe you could count every frame in a second to see if the game runs at its promised 60 FPS.

Played a couple of games so far. Game definately runs smoother and the animations are crisp. The crowd/stadiums look substantially better than last year's installment, though everything else looks pretty much the same. WHERE THE HECK IS MY MAN CORSO though?! Did they scratch Herbstreet/Corso for this game like they did in Madden? I always loved the NCAA commentary. Oh well. Also, the menus look like they are really well done and I'm pumped for the revamped campus legend mode and franchise. Definately a buy for me (though I'll prob buy APF 2k8 too)

I've been playing for the last hour.
60 fps = completely different game! WOW. It's a night and day difference.
So smooth and seamless. Amazing. And actually fun to play!! Although playing on Varsity difficulty is way too easy. But
the gameplay is just awesome. Great new animations as well. Thank you EA!! I can't wait until July 17th.
I feel bad for those stuck with 30fps this year :p

Played the demo, looks great. I am just praying that they up 1-4 player co-op in so that me and my buddies can play on the same team in dynasty mode, like the last generation could.

Cant wait to play as Heisman winning Ohio State QB Troy Smith and launch one 60 yards to Ted Ginn Jr, all after I broke 3 tackles and juked a Penn State middle linebacker.

Brad, give more details, can you pick which teams you can be? Can you pick the stadiums? What did you have for lunch?

When you download the demo it says they left the commentary out to keep the size of the demo down. Herbstreet and Corso will be in the full retail version.

Plays pretty well. Feels a lot better than NCAA 07.
Austin, Troy Smith graduated, so no Troy Smith for you.

Oh and I can't wait to see how the Gators play. And see how bad they can beat OSU again. :)

now i know why i stopped buying eaopoly games, sliding players, no grass wear, players are slippery 60 fps or not, no innovation, same game as 3 yrs ago....if it was the same game as 5 years ago, it would be good....dissapointing, like the last 3 maddens

I know how they got it to run at 60 fps..... They made all the textures low res and took out anything of beauty in the game. Now it's just a dull football sim with crappy gameplay. After playing that demo I have been really turned off of NCAA 08.
