NCAA Football 2004

Overview

NCAA Football 2004 is an American football video game released in 2003 by Tiburon. It is the successor to NCAA Football 2003 in the NCAA Football series. The player on the cover is former USC quarterback Carson Palmer. The game is available for play with the N-Gage. Commentators are Brad Nessler, Kirk Herbstreit and Lee Corso.

The game's gameplay is similar to NCAA Football 2003, but with updated player stats and rosters. Players can rename players or create their own college team. If the player named the school after one of the schools in the game, the announcers use its name and fight song in the game. The game features new on-field presentation features such as players walking out of their locker room area and then onto the field behind a group of flag bearers. It also features player touchdown celebrations which can result in a penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct.

The game's reviews varied across consoles. As reported by video game review aggregator Metacritic, the PlayStation 2 release received "universal acclaim" and the GameCube and Xbox releases received "generally favorable" reviews, while the N-Gage release's reviews were "average".

During the 7th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards, the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences nominated NCAA Football 2004 for "Console Sports Simulation Game of the Year", which was ultimately awarded to Madden NFL 2004.
