NCAA Football 13 Retrospective

I agree, I prefer 13 to 14, better overall gameplay, no wonky Physics, no annoying amount of Shoelace Tackles

12 deserves some credit. The foundation that made 13 and 14 great is almost entirely laid by 12. I still play that game to this day, and I don't feel like the experience is all too different.

lmao the heart part iv in the background, softdrinks definitely in the know

First ever game I’ve played ever in my life, still have it on my Xbox 360 and love it. Still have many dynasties going on since I started playing.

I remember I went looking for a copy of 14 at a EB Games during the final days of them selling 360 games here in Canada in 2017/18. They didn’t have it, but had a case-less copy of 13 in stock that got massively reduced down to $2 after they checked for it in their system. Love this game.

13 is so good, that's where my love for the UTEP Miners came from and to this day, I'm a fan of the team. Hopefully the team's future is bright with the new Head Coach and new recruits they got!

My heart is still embedded in the NCAA Football 03-06 era.

My favorite is 11, gameplay is slower but not in an annoying way. Being able to call recruits and tell them what they want to hear while talking to them on the phone was a awesome feature too.

I just love how much more effort they put into the older sports games everything just feels natural if that makes sense.

Playing the instrumental to The heart part IV, nice touch. I never bought NCAA 14’ because of how much I played and enjoyed NCAA 13’. It was that good

As a person who didn’t buy 14 and now can’t justified buying it for 100+ 13 is my game of choice

NCAA Football 11 was my favorite one. The Road to Glory was just too good.

Just got off NCAA 06 due to watching your videos. Great work btw on your reviews and opinions.

The heart part 4 as your background beat. I knew i liked you for a reason softdrink

I always loved 13 but nobody ever talked about it. Thank you

Dont forget NCAA 13 was the first season of Johnny Football himself ! I lived the recruiting system in the game ! Way more complex and fun, though I can understand why some people might find it as a chore after couple time

One thing I always loved to do in '13 was play as the rival team in Heisman challenge (RG3 on TCU, Barry Sanders on the Sooners, etc). It's always fun to step into (or make from scratch) an alternate canon in a sports game.

Was looking for NCAA games online and didn't wanna pay an outrageous amount on eBay, so I settled for ncaa 13. It's a solid game, but I would prefer simpler recruiting personally. But, the gameplay is ahead of its time for sure, love it!

Oh man the nostalgia…. So I had a ps2 and PSP up until December 2012, backtrack to ncaa 11 ps2, I saw the gameplay trailers on YouTube showing the new pre game traditions and espn integration. I was SO excited to finally get it for Christmas, i vividly recall popping it into my ps2 expecting the GO Blue banner entrance…. Only to see it was basically the exact same as 09. No new traditions, no espn, no anything. Granted I was 10 years old, maybe I should’ve known better, but it was a HUGE LETDOWN. Flash forward to Christmas 2012, I finally got a ps3. But no ncaa 13 until later that night at my grandmas house, unwrapping it was MAGICAL. FINALLY popping it in to the graphics, the traditions, the espn broadcast, the many alternative uniforms, the heisman intro…..it was ALL PERFECT to me. I remember my first game was Under The Lights with the throwback uniforms. It was lifelike to me. NCAA 13 will always have a special place in my heart.

I was just playing NCAA 13 earlier, easily my favorite college game of all time, if the new NCAA game is similar, it will be a massive success
