Product ReviewsNCAA Football 2005 (Nintendo GameCube, 2004)

A lot of fun, small frustrations

NCAA Football '05 is the last NCAA football game for the gamecube. It can also be played on the Wii. (Do not waste your time on the NCAA '09 All Play, it is terrible.)
This game is a lot of fun. You can do a lot with it and it has great ways to customize.
The only drawback is that they stopped just short of perfect customizations. You cannot edit the conferences the way you want, you can only add/drop a team. The ACC had 12 teams in 2005 and a conf. championship game but this game shows Boston College still being in the big east.
There are occasional times when the players make impossible moves... like jumping 7 feet in the air and 10 yards backwards to deflect a pass. This is frustrating but just remember, your defenders can do it too.
Really wish EA would make NCAA 2011+ for the Wii using the regular controllers but until then, NCAA 05 will have to do.Read full review...

Great football game!

NCAA Football 2005 is a great football game. EA makes the best football games on any system. And I think the NCAA football games are better than the Madden football series. The college game is more fun because it has more crowd/cheerleader/mascot emotion, like playing the school's fight song whenever you score. Plus, the college game allows you to run the option offense which is a lot of fun. And in NCAA 2005 they have added several new features that make this game much better than the 2004 version. Including: 1) Crowd momentum - when you do good the home crowd gets louder and if you get them pumped up enough it will make your opponent's controller vibrate and effect the other team. 2) Big hits - you can hit a button to try to make a big hit and cause a fumble or get a big sack. 3) Match-up view - before a play you can view the match-ups of the defensive players on your offensive players, so you can see when there is a missmatch of a player who is covering your receiver and try to burn them long.
Bottomline: Best football game on the Gamecube.Read full review...

NCAA Football 2005: the college experience

While I purchased this solely to be able to export it into my Madden NFL 2005 game, the game seems colorful with the college spin on it (and music is better than Madden 2005). The various modes offer some flexibility in how one approaches the game.Read full review...

College Football on GameCube

This was the last college football game on the GameCube. It's the best one of the limited number of games that preceded it. The game has its quirks, such as wide open receivers dropping easy passes. But, it has the best overall experience of a college football game.Read full review...
