We would have one more signed up for this if it didn't take 6 months to get an account activated for this forum. I have a buddy waiting rather impatiently I might add.

Can someone helps this poor used get activated?

I put my money down for it today but since Ramirez is a fucker and picked FSU even though he doesnt go there, I dont know who I'll be!

I keep having to pick my rivals but I guess I'll try out Miami.

This is the most out of touch I have been with sports videogames since 2001, and I think I'm more excited for the upcoming games because of it. I'll leave it up to EA and VC to suprise me.

NCAA will definitely be in stores tomorrow? Damn, gotta renew my Xbox Live.

I'll know tomorrow afternoon if my store is : A) Getting it in on monday B) Tuesday C) Next week..... :(

If this two bit country doesn't get it in until next week ( I would have ordered it online, but EBgames' shipping is just insulting) I might pass on it, much as it pains me to do so. ESPN is hitting a week from tuesday, and I know plenty of us are buying that. Well, nothing I can do now but hope that they get it in sooner than next week. I'm not driving down to Buffalo again :p

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.
Ebgames.com has it shipping today,so it should be in stores by Tuesday.

That will probably happen. Unless I play against that skinny little douche Matrix in the first round.

So I call my EB earlier and they tell me "Were getting NCAA 2005 on the 15th sir..." Ok, I'm about to snap at that point...BUT!

Good news everyone! I called EB just now and they said they might get it tonight now, instead of THURSDAY...how the hell did that screw up happen?!...wait, FMT said he called my EB last night! YOU!

Woooooooo. I love my local game store. EB doesn't carry it......none of the big chains do.....Every other indie place says "The 20th, at the soonest". My boys are getting it in tomorrow :D :D :D

We should change the team list so that each user has his username listed (in brackets perhaps) next to his GA name.

If you care that much about UCLA (If you're a current student, for example) perhaps I could take another team.. If it means that the tournament will have a dedicated player, and you really want to use that team, I will take Penn state.


FMT told me that we'll only have 48 hours to fill the tourny...and the next-lowest amount of people after 32 is 16, so if we don't get all 32 in within 48 hours, I'm not sure what we'll do.

Nah, keep it. I don't really have the time to dedicate to a tourney anyways.

I just kicked Texas' ass. 42-30-something. Was awarded a Greatest Game for it as well.

Exactly how much time is this tourney going to take? How does is work, do you play every night? I'm interested but I'm not sure if I can do it for because of the time commitment.

For those who were wondering, the game DOES come with 2 months free of Live.

I think I'll have to withdraw from the tourny. Consider UCLA up for grabs... I can't get the game until friday, and while the tourny probably won't start until then, because ESPN is coming out only 3 days after I could buy NCAA, I think I'll save my money :(

whats the deal? I cant stay connected to EA. Ive only managed to log in once and when i changed some settings and tried to save them it logged me off. is it still hit and miss for pretty much everyone?

it doesnt appear this game is Live aware. -.5 pts

ugh you cant manually type in gamertags to add to friends list from the Live interface in game. sucks! hard enough to get logged in.
