Cornhuskers in First Place in NCAA Season Showdown

This year EA Sports added a mode that deepens the connection between the digital and real worlds of college football: Season Showdown. Every week football teams go head-to-head with their real-world opponents in five categories. At the end of the season a tournament will decide who’s fans are the best at NCAA 10 and the most loyal supporters. As of now, the Nebraska Cornhuskers are in first place in both the nation and the Big XII Conference.

An interview with NCAA Football 10 designer Ben Haumiller

Last week I had the opportunity to chat with NCAA Football 10 designer Ben Haumiller. What follows is a condensed and edited version of our discussion. Cornfed Gamer – You only have one year between releases of NCAA, how do you balance the time between adding new features and improving the core, on the field experience? Ben Haumiller – That’s a fun part about it, is that we do have such a tight time line every year that there really is no down time. We don’t ship for six days and I’m already working fully on next year’s title.
