Where I Come From: EA Sports NCAA Football 2011 Available Now

Final post in a series sponsored by EA Sports NCAA Football 2011.

A message from our sponsor:

When you go to a particular school or grow up around college football, you are more than just a fan: it’s who you are. We thought we could leverage this pride in your roots and show that "where you come from" is more than just a statement about geography. By positioning NCAA Football 11 as a game that understands this pride and is authentic to these traditions, the takeaway should be that anything that is in college football is in NCAA Football 11.

And this doesn’t just include game play (though that’s a huge part of it); it’s rivals and mascots; it’s legends and stories; it’s those things that are at the very fabric of the game itself. Of course, the game is great this year as well. With authentic entrances, mascots, and specific offenses for each team, the term "where I come from" takes on a much larger meaning. While playing NCAA Football 11 is ultimately a great sports sim, it should also give you a sense of the pride and emotion one has for being a fan of a team they will never not be a part of.

EA Sports NCAA Football 11 is now available on the shelves wherever games are sold; as I've said before, I'm not much of a gamer and so I will probably resist the siren call of this video game, but if any of you choose to buy the game (you can buy directly from their site by following one of the advertisements on the blog), I'd love to hear your impressions of how they portray Texas A&M, and what they have in our playbook. If I can find a preview online to play, I'll let you know what I think from an Xs and Os perspective, too.

For those of you who are gamers, enjoy today, as it is Christmas in July for you.
