It’s not much of a confirmation or specific release date, but the above paragraph is what you see after registering for the free 20 songs Harmonix/EA/MTV/Whoever promised Rock Band 2 owners in the back of the game’s manual.

It gives you the option to suggest songs you’d want to download. We’d say root for some Kings of Leon, more Strokes, Sonic Youth, Dinosaur, Jr. and Yeah Yeah Yeahs. We think its a good idea. Yup.

Register here.

The NCAA Football franchise never sells the way Madden does, but it’s still a huge series.  I have always been partial to the little brother of Madden considering my love for college football.  We expected big things with the 2009 installment, but it seems there’s really not a lot to write home about.  Online Dynasty mode was surely welcomed and the ability to share custom roster files was a nice bonus.  Other than that, the game really doesn’t offer many improvements over NCAA 08. There are a few minor changes to the game that I’ll try to break down below.

Gameplay

Gameplay hasn’t changed a lot, but the offensive game is definitely more wide-open than ever.  This is great if you love offense and a step backward if you are a defensively minded player.  An unfortunate addition to the game is the ability of the home team to “ice” kickers.  This ability works entirely too well and really dilutes the realism of the game.  I suggest turning this option off in any game you play.  Another problem I noticed with the game is the fact that the AI simply does not work well at all, particularly on the defensive side of the ball.  AI controlled players will run the wrong direction and frequently miss easy tackles.  While the game certainly is slightly better than 08 in most areas, I expected more.  If you currently have NCAA 08, you may want to simply wait until NCAA 10 hits shelves to upgrade.

In tribute of “The Dark Knight”, we’ve decided to create ‘LEGO Batman’ action shots, with our bucket of Lego pieces.  After 5 minutes of looking for that damn bucket, we decided to show you this trailer instead.
