NCAA Basketball (series)
Appearance
The NCAA March Madness series is the main NCAA basketball series published by EA Sports, only on the three next-gen consoles (PS2, Gamecube, and XBox) as of 2004.
Like other games made after the NCAA, it cannot feature the players' names (as that is against NCAA policy/rules). Therefore, only the players' numbers are used (although their last names are featured within the ingame commentary, like the NBA Live series). Generally, EA Sports has focused less on this series than NBA Live, leading to a less polished look, overall.
