NCAA Basketball 09
NCAA Basketball 09 is the next installment of the basketball simulator series by Electronic Arts Sports. In many ways it resembles another cycle of this company - NBA Live, and here, instead of the world's elite of professionals, we lead American university teams.
Control the tempo of the game like never before in NCAA® Basketball 09, the all-new college basketball experience from EA SPORTS.
Game Tempo Control
Use all 94 feet to push the ball or apply full court pressure to force turnovers to speed the game up, walk the ball up the floor and initiate a half-court set or use a balanced attack to take advantage of what your opponent gives you. Set the tempo and play your game to put yourself in a position to come out on top.
Authentic Styles Of Play
Whether your school pushes the ball in transition, runs a half-court offense that utilizes the clock and limits possessions or features a balanced attack that combines transition offense with set plays, NCAA Basketball 09 rewards the strategic player by emphasizing team specific styles of play.
New Game Engine
Over 1,000 new animation sequences deliver a more responsive, intelligent experience. Apply pressure defense with new full-court presses and traps. Plus, quicker players now get up and down the floor faster and make better decisions running lanes and driving to the rim.
Coach Feedback System
Your school's coach is with you every step of the way. Listen to real NCAA® Coaches on the sidelines providing real time feedback, helping you play at your ideal tempo.
