Ncaa Basketball 09 Gameplay

NCAA Basketball 09 is the exclusive NCAA Basketball game by EA Sports. NCAA Basketball 09 features many new features that help make the game as realistic as possible, such as a revamped gameplay engine, many new animation sequences, and an authentic college atmosphere that recaptures the excitement of college basketball.

Fun game, but gets too hard for me at All-Conference.

Great graphics, so-so game play made it hard to hit three-pointers in transition. Fun to play with real names, though.

Needs to be more like NBA Live.
Why would it not be? Who says that I (the buyer) want anything different. I pretty much want a NBA Live with college teams. Needs a more NCAA Football like recruiting, and needs a imported draft class like in NCAA Football.

Why can't this just be Live with college teams?

Suda was initially reluctant to work on the project due to his intense dislike for ghosts and horror games. According to a later interview with Kikuchi, he was first inspired when he saw the potential in the Wii hardware, and was the first to propose the project to Nintendo. Fatal frame ps4.

good game..not 2k but it gets the job done. major improvement over EA's previous ncaa bball games, but still work needs to be done. zone defense is too effective and the computer tends to get some ridiculous intercepts. but the graphics are good and with the right sliders (try roadless' sliders, they get great results) you can produce a very realistic game with good stats close to real life. still wish 2k could have put one out..but this works if you want a college bball game.

This game is soooo unrealistic.
My personal favorite is trying to block a shot and having my player jump in the opposite direction of where he should jump.
Few post moves.
Unrealistic with poor gameplay.
As a side not, when editing players, there's only the option to give them wristbands; no sleeves, no elbow pads, no knee sleeves, nothing.
Wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't the only NCAA Basketball game out there.
Thanks EA!!

The turnover issue when playing zone defense is a huge one. However, the game's presentation and overall play is glorious. I love this game and everything about it.

My son brought over a bunch of sport PS3 games since I am home for awhile. I really enjoyed NCAA 09 and would recommend it highly. Lots of fun playing against a friend.

I ended up buying this one. It isn't CH 2k8, but that is OK. It's a decent game with a solid base. Needs a LOT of work with the art (jersey numbers and names are ridiculously small, shorts are way too large universally), but the game is very playable which is more than I have been able to say about this series since the first edition on ps2.

College basketball season is in full swing as conference play just got underway, and March Madness is approaching at a breakneck pace. Let's face it, NCAA hoops has its hands full competing with the NFL and the NBA over the fall and winter months. But, as springtime approaches, fans slowly start gearing up for the NCAA Tournament, many of whom reach near hysteria by the time Selection Sunday rolls around. If you're a hardcore fan of college hoops and you haven't taken the plunge and upgraded to a PS3 or Xbox 360, EA's NCAA Basketball for the PS2 is your game, and regrettably so.EA has dropped the title NCAA March Madness in favor of the catchy moniker NCAA Basketball (note the sarcasm), and former UCLA star and current Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kevin Love replaces Kevin Durant as the cover.
