Since then, I have moved towards voyeurism versus playing, reveling in the crowds, energy, and statistics. My friends avoid me after week long bouts of Sportscenter. Confident in my knowledge of college hoops, I dove into NCAA Basketball with reckless abandonment. After learning the ropes, my views are mixed. NCAA Basketball '09 is a decent simulator that improves upon its predecessors, especially by utilizing the NBA live engine. However, it lacks accessibility for the average fan. After the wonderful EA sports logo, a phalanx of menus bombards you with options running 4 to 5 layers deep. You control the rules, foul consistency, and manage your rosters. While any sports nut may drool over the endless possibilities presented, I found it overbearing."

Good job EA for settle 1 of your 99 problems!
EA just please change our hearts that is all (Kamui).
This topic will never go away. Way too much money earned for the little guys to not keep trying to get a slice of the pie.
If you aren't going to college on a scholarship, and EA is making big bucks off of you, why not?
NBA All-Star Kevin Love of the Minnesota Timberwolves is the winner of the 2010-11 Kia NBA Most Improved Player Award. The annual award is presented to a player who has made a significant improvement from the previous season. Love, who was on the cover of EA Sports’ NCAA Basketball 09, talks about his gaming prestige with Call of Duty in this exclusive video interview.
To me people who say "oh I play COD" seems so generic. Yes, in a way COD has made gamers more streamlined, instead of the nerd who was the loser.
It'd be more impressive if he said, "oh I'm a huge Red Dead Redemption fan, or I love playing Bioshock. Or, oh yeah I just picked up Portal 2."
Cod is just meh. Those are wanna be gamers.
@ evrfighter KG won a championship. so im sure Love will leave minnesota if resulted to a ring.
@ TheLastGuardian2010 lol. so you decide whats a game or not? also, COD is a big franchise so Love saying he's good at it is impressive.
LOS ANGELES, California – Minnesota Timberwolves star Kevin Love is appearing in his first NBA All-Star Game at Staples Center in Los Angeles, replacing the injured Yao Ming. This weekend is a return to Hollywood for the former UCLA basketball star. Love was the first UCLA basketball player to be featured on the cover of the EA Sports College Basketball 09 video game. He talks about his love of Activision's Call of Duty: Black Opps and gives out his brother's Xbox 360 Gamertag in this exclusive video interview.
Maybe he didn't give out his gamertag because he doesn't want people to find out he sucks at COD. lol jk
I wish you got more for Prestige then extra classes ect. dosen't seem worth it to me i Prestige once or twice in most cods just for extra weapon slot or if i get really bored .. i really don't think it's anything special imo
