EA Sports College Football 25 Review - The Final Verdict
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- The enthusiasm around American football can't be understated, especially at the college level. While EA Sports delivered on that front with the NCAA Football series, it's been dormant for a long time due to various issues. Against all odds, a sequel finally materialized in College Football 25.
Boasting thousands of players and numerous teams, several with authentic uniforms and mascots, the attention to detail is simply staggering, bolstered by gorgeous fidelity. There's a significant amount of meat to the experience, from Rise to Glory and Dynasty to Ultimate Team and Road to the College Football Playoffs. One can create a custom player or coach a team to the top.
College Football 25 has several issues, from omissions in its offline modes to strange design decisions, which can hamper the experience. Nevertheless, it's an enjoyable experience that captures the essence of the sport with a solid gameplay framework.
“I’ve never been much of a football fan…”
*closes video
Ok bum
@@buggyyuji851 why the name calling?
@@buggyyuji851you’re really a weirdo .
Who would be a fan of EA sports football games ? 😂😂you sound goofy you must be a kid.
@@gavinkingsly821 gonna cry?
“Boston”
It’s Boston College, for Doug Flutie’s fucking sake
Who the fuck is Kirk Herbstrite?? 🤣🤣
This dude
doesn't know jack shit about college football. I doubt gaming bolt has one employee that isn't a liberal nerd beta dork.
@@Bradvern 🤣🤣🤣
I don’t like to eat chicken…… but let me review this chicken sandwich real quick 😂
So not liking something means you can’t review or play it? Are you that dense?
@@triskyt I’m as dense as you’re a dummy
Never let this guy review a football game again!!! Get someone who knows about the game as it compares to real ncaa football and traditions and what it means to those of us that waited for it. Damn, this entire video was disappointing. It's obvious that all don't like sports games.
Maybe some of you should stop comparing this game to others?
This game is realistically about a seven.
Its actually good to have reviewers who dont just play sports games reciew it. Sports games often get away with bad business practices and low effort due to the fact that many sports games players dont play other games, so their standards/expectations are much lower.
@@BigmanDogs bingo. This game is about a 7 too lol
The game is missing key feature and truly is bare bones.
When the review started off with "whether you're shotgunning a pass"... I knew it wasn't a football fan review
CFB 25 is undoubtedly better than Madden, but that bar is so low that Idk if that's even a compliment.
It's a solid game, but there are obvious optimization & presentation issues. And it's surprising how many features are missing from previous titles. Being unable to edit the rosters is a terrible omission in my opinion, but your miles may vary. Overall I think a 7 is about right. They did just enough to satisfy fans who have waited for a decade on the next College Football game.
This was the proper review
@@atlien1988 “Its a solid game but…”. This is why I take these reviews and comments with a grain of salt. I get it… lots of missing features, bad pursuit angles, various animation glitches, the list goes on…. But “Its a solid game”. SERIOUSLY? Make up your mind!
It’s a great game and I’d prob give a 7.5. It is amazing but theirs a lot of detail that is missing or needs to be added back from older games pre 2014. 10 years later we got what we wanted that doesn’t mean it’s perfect. The gameplay is so bad at times cpu defenders just not moving, tackling is broken, o line not blocking, wear and tear needs fixing. Theirs more but even the presentations as great as they are for home teams where is the pre game? Rmb old games had game day with corso making pics or players stretching while stats for the season are shown. Theirs no heismen ceremony it’s just a picture that says who won previous games made it little more in depth with how many votes and showing thr pal get picking up trophy. RTG is fun but old ones felt even better it’s on right track but why aren’t more positions available after all these years. The review system is terrible you can’t even see replays or them showing refs doing the review. A halftime show something like nba2k would be nice. The weekly news can be so much better it’s the same titles for every big game week after week and you can’t even look at matchups and see team stats. Not being able to take draft classes to madden etc I can keep going but theirs so much missing still love the game tho but 7/10 is good. Than you for anyone who read 😂
I agree 1000% hopefully this year was to set a foundation next game gotta have some if not everything you said
the heisman simulator for who wins is even broken a WR won it in 2029 in my offline dynasty with 63 catches under 1000 yards and only had 13 TDs.
The game is a 5/10 until they fix the Dynasty Mode recruiting glitches.
Would it kill y’all to hire someone who actually loves to play sports games???
The funny thing is that they love to talk about diversity.
But that doesn't apply to diversity of thought
Why would you let a guy who has “never been much of a football fan” review a game that is about….football….
Because what person with a full brain is actually a fan of EA sports football games don’t worry I’ll wait
It’s fun to play collage football again the game is fun, hopefully they can improve the presentation when it comes to the end of games gets old seeing the same thing after every game and how the celebration is the same after winning your conference championship as it is after a playoff game and the celebration after winning the natty isn’t that great
This is EA. They've used the same SB celebrations for years. They're staying true to who they are lol.
@@atlien1988 right you are lol
Games trash 😢
As soon as he said he wanted cut scenes in road to glory I was out
There should be awards presentation scenes at least. I played rtg once and said thats all i need. Super boring
@@elcee3292 I can agree with that. Award ceremonies would be cool for sure, but dumb coach talks and whatever would be bad bc RTG is Al about reply and after 1 you’d hate that and they would suck as we have seen in madden
All*
I waited years for this game, let the nostalgia wear off and you’ll see this game is mid. Players move too fast, OTs won’t even put their hands on DEs if they hit a certain speed threshold off the line. The movement is unrealistic from people in coverage. The presentation is beyond awful and there’s no skipping halftime shows. How about every kicker knocking in kicks from 50. I’m having fun with the game but let’s be realistic here, most of the love it’s getting is nostalgia. Even seen some idiot streamers say this game is sports perfection.
@@LeftCross_ No taste in games.
@@jayde5776 wait so now I don’t have taste cause I’m criticizing something I was looking forward too… you must have really liked this game huh 😂
Whotf decided to let someone review football game who doesn't like it.
Lol so you should only let people who like the game review it ? The truth hurts
Cause people would be biased
@@thebestreviews6675 People who review the game should be fan of that genre. A normal guy won't buy a football game if he doesn't like football. Why would he want to waste his money on something which he won't like.
If a non-fan started reviewing games then my friend none of the Jrpgs will get a score above 6.
@@Must_gamer_7 copium more
You did ok for a guy who obviously isn't into sports games.
Your mother isn't into sports games.
@@KingSmerk209cold
We just need full player editing
You don't "shotgun a pass" you line up in the shotgun formation and have the the option to pass.
No Boston College football team is "prestigious"
Why did you choose "42" QB numbers are 1 - maybe 20
This review is actually spot on, and I am an avid football fan. Just because he doesn't care for football, it doesn't invalidate his opinion. This game is fun and simultaneously frustrating
I think the rating is a bit low, but it's basically what IGN gives every game now days so what's new?
From my POV, game is solid compared to Madden. The college teams have good atmospheres associated with them and the core football game is fun, and every type of offense feels different to play as and play against. Army feels like Army, and Texas Tech feels like Texas Tech. Defensive AI leaves a lot to be desired, but I don't think any sports game has great AI, even the coveted ESPN NFL 2K5 didn't have "that" great of AI.
The game is overpriced for what it is but if you want a college sports game, this is the best one out.
Wish there was a pc release like wtf EA?!
Pc shouldn't get everything
@@jeffsandefur6886 Neither should consoles
Modders would have shown up EA that's d reason it's not on PC
@@Blv-u1e1000% that’s exactly why. EA wouldn’t have given up all that PC cash they would have made if it wasn’t because they know modders would end up doing ten times better than they did- in half the time 😂
@@Black_Caucus modders will always do 10x ... that is why they are modders ...
This game is unplayable. You literally can’t even play defense because of all of the broken tackles and bad pursuit angles. I think the people who like this game is the same people who like madden every year and buy it over and over again.
Omg just get good. I play on all-American with 10 min qtr (acc clock) & hold teams under 25. There are so many more tools this year to help on defense plus the hit stick actually works when it should 😂😂. Not to mention… do you see college football scores?
@@jegetasaiyan7326 “Omg just get good” like EA didn’t come out and say they are going to update the pursuit angles or like everybody has not been complaining about broken tackles. You are the type of person who buys madden every year.
@@jegetasaiyan7326 how am I supposed to get better if the computer is the one who breaks tackles, not blocking and has the wrong pursuit angles? Am I supposed to magically control all 11 players at the same time? 😂😂😂
@@thebestreviews6675 buying Madden every year helped fund this so…. The defense isn’t nearly as unplayable as everyone makes it seem. Mix up your defenses and hot routes & if something keeps working against you adjust
You can't get good when the glitches start and the pursuit angles are terrible @@jegetasaiyan7326
Man the comments people make about this game are all over the place. I tend to believe the non-complainers. Unless the complainers are correctly stating all the people loving this game are EA employees… which is unlikely. If there are bugs, they’ll be fixed. Cant edit players? Not a game breaker imo.
I’d have to side with you there, to each their own. I haven’t played Madden (let alone a football game) since Madden 11.
For me, I have very little to novice knowledge on football. I picked this up yesterday, and have been enjoying it ever since. Regardless of what everyone says CFB25 is “lacking”, it’s a very solid football game. The only thing that would make it better for me is a longer career somehow
No but the lack of overall detail and customisation options is less than half of what NCAA 15 had....they couldn't even be bothered putting dynamic time or even the ability to do a coin toss in the game. The game play is even worse.
How can you review a college football game but have no idea how to pronounce Kirk Herbstreit’s name?
Herb Street
“Shotgunning a pass”
A 7 is fine
Leaves me hopeful for this years madden
Buddy said he don’t watch much football, this review was baaaaaad (madden and ncaa are two different games btw bro)
I don’t think the game is as good as advertised, why is it so common to snap the ball over the qbs head so much
The game is fun until the glitches start happening. And the pursuit angles are horrible when you playing defense tmthat's one of most frustrating thing about this game.
“Never been much of a football fan” - says the guy reviewing a football game 🤦🏼♂️. Next.
Now I’d definitely be hyped for the next one
Yea this game has good bones but zero soul! It was fun for a day then it loses charm. Literally road to glory has zero to offer. Dynasty is good but has issues just like every other game mode. Ultimate team is a money grab. I could keep going. I wanted it to be perfect like the rest of you but it isn’t.
they should've gotten someone who is a football fan
Why is it that College football video games are always better than the NFL games
This video is boring. Can't tell if it's the game or your production acumen.
How much did EA pay this guy?
As a life long ncaa fan n ea sports player this game is a 6, 6.5 at best. Barely better than recent maddens not as close to as good as any past ncaa in any aspect, except graphics.
This game honestly is trash for what is hyped up to be. You can tell its pretty much just a Madden reskin. So much for the pageantry and traditions this game has no life and all the game modes are pretty bare bones. HOW CAN THEY KEEP RUINING GAMES???
I swear ea said they had hundreds of faces u can choose from in road to glory we get like 15 lmao
Once I saw the #42 qb I was done…
Oh no… a position doesnt have a realistic number on the jersey. It breaks the game! Waaaah😢
@@supercommando440 He was saying the reviewer obviously doesnt really know shit about football, and it showed in his review
the rating itself is spot on considering lack of customization, no formation subs, extremely buggy and full of different glitchesin ult team, dynasty, and RTG. The game is extremely fun and we all missed it but this game is in no way an 8 or better in quality. nothing under an 8 when it comes to fun.
Maybe should be a football game fam first
Thank the heavens they didn't screw this up
They did and didn’t
If put EA in front a sports game it going suck ass and not be worth even looking at.
Why is the graphic still so bad
Hawk thua some EA punk. Games fucking trash. Need a law suite. Like NOW!
EA college football not worth $85 I will not buy it
AI needs to just stop...
Better then expected
Why does my game keep freezing during simulations?!?
Some of it sounds like Retro bowl
its seem okay but college football revamp is much better than this. sorry to say
lol. Review started he doesn’t like football. Fail
This reviewer lost all credibility
Bad review, and not cuz of the score
The more you play the game. The worst it gets
Welp that's a thumbs down to not only this video, but ir reputation as a credible source for reviews lol who let's someone that doesn't like the source (football) to review a game about said source???? Lol HIRE SOMEBODY
i tried to get into this game i got bored
u trash 🤣🤣🤣
Why no in game saving??
if it's anything like Madden you can opt out and it will automatically pick up where you left off when returning to the Menu screen. It may not be an 'exact' save but it's pretty efficient.
Your review was trasu
5:01 says all you need to know about this reviewer. holy smokes. I can literally hear how narrow this dudes shoulders are in his voice. Gaming bolt, have a football fan review football games. What a concept.
This game is OK, it's solid but it's still.madden
Way better than madden smarter ai , better passing, teams play better when play books are used properly. More complex defenses coverages.
Fresno st. baby! That game at Michigan is gonna be dope
Glad i didn't buy this game lol EA is trash
This game is so bad
This game sucks man
The AI in this game is 💩💩
He a fool lol 😂
This 1 of the worst reviews y'all ever did... This game is a 9 at worst, I love it
CFB 25 is trash.
Wow this review was so bad lol
your point is....
lol cow live now! Boogie face tattoo
I agree , a 7 is good !! The games not perfect, no ea sports will ever be , but it is fun ! And it’s a much better choice than Madden, that’s just a reskin even year with old tec they removed from past games!!!
This will become madden unfortunately got this one won't buy newer copy again
Im comment number 1 😅?. This seems 100% better than madden 🤙🏽
How is it any better? Same game.
Bu bu bu bu but it has college players 😂
His dad is probably a dev that worked on the game
The review was alright. Mediocre at best
🧢 7/10 mf
This game sucks
Naw 7/10
First
This game is basically Madden 25 with a college skin on top of it people swear up and down that they're different games need their eyes checked
I mean…… people that think EA wasn’t gonna do that are suckers
EA isn’t putting any extra money in developing the game when they can just convert madden into this 😂
1st
Let’s call it what it is. The game sucks.
Stop the 🧢 is 6.5 maybe 7 out ten 10 games
That’s a bad sports game. What are you
Talking about?
@@buggyyuji851 6.5/10 football game sucks
Fire the reviewer
