College football season may be long gone, but you die-hard fans have surely been following all of Destructoid’s coverage of NCAA Football 09 (pun definitely intended). So far, EA Sports has only unveiled the box art for the Xbox 360 and Wii versions of the game, though the PS3 cover will be revealed a week from today.

Now, we’ve got some video of NCAA Football 09 in action for the first time, in the form of a minute-and-thirty-eight-second debut trailer (see above). It’s obviously showing off the PS3/360 versions of the game. The trailer flies through the game’s feature set at breakneck speed; you’ll see a good amount of gameplay footage, as well as menu screens and the like. I don’t really follow college sports, but I must say, this game is looking pretty good. Hell, if EA adds Mascot Games to all their sports titles, I’ll be much more likely to pick them up.

NCAA Football 09 will hit stores in July for the PS3, 360, Wii, PS2, and PSP.

Interesting. Means I'll probably pick up the '10 version. It'll just look weird that way I think... Probably go back to the 2010 version or something (but that looks ridiculously futuristic, but better than '10).

I tend not to buy yearly installments of sports games, but every 3-4 years enough changes to warrant a purchase from me. Though the bargain bin laden last year editions always seem so neat

Uh, EA we here at Penn State where white, hence the famous "white-outs" of the last few years. Can we get that fixed up real quick?

As a PSU alumnus, I know the school also uses correct grammar, Polish. Penn State "wear" white, dude. English 015, c'mon!

There were Mascot games in '08? For 360? I don't remember seeing them and it looks like it might be fun once or twice, I haven't touched '08 in months.

SOLD! I loved 08 on the PS3 but then my game got messed up by a bug and I didn't notice it till after I saved. Lost all my progress and gave up. I had played up to the year 2017 or so. Damn you EA!
