Woot! Been looking forward to trying this out. Keep in mind this is the renamed March Madness franchise from EA. It has been reworked from the ground up supposedly, and now uses the latest NBA Live engine. So if you hated NBA Live, you'll probably hate this one.

Heads up, NCAA Basketball 09 sucks. The demo showcases horrible gameplay, horrible animations, strangely dark arenas, piss-poor crowd noise, horrible controls, etc etc etc. I'm pretty sad that I found the demo as bad as it was.

If anyone wants a real bball game, get college hoops 2k8. It's probably my favorite sports game ever, up there with NCAA football 2004. A real shame that they discontinued it, but if you want, you can get 2009 rosters at operationsports.com.
