We love sports games. No, we don't really play them that much, but we like the insight that they give us into the mind of the non-gamer. The way we feel when we comb through various combinations of acronyms and numbers is how we imagine non-video game fans feel when they look at any shelf of game titles. ("Tracy, he asked Santa for God of War, do you think Gears of War is close enough?") So understand that when we tell you that there's a demo for NCAA Football 2009 on Xbox Live we don't really know what we're saying.
Is that one of the good ones? Does it have new stuff? We can't tell you. All we gleaned from Major Nelson is that the game has "unique college-style animations" and you know what that means: Post-touchdown beer bongs. So at least you've got that going for you. Hopefully the more knowledgeable among you will let us know how the demo fares in the comments.

Sports and videogames are my two greatest passions...basketball is my favorite sport, and while I love watching Kobe get trashed, Euro 2008 (Turkey with the comebacks!!) and Tiger...TIGER (I don't care much for golf) was more exciting than the Finals.
Can't wait for college football...GO K-STATE!!

I hope the glitches are worked out of the demo, because it froze on me.
