A few days ago, we reported that many PSP owners had a game-ruining bug in their copy of EA's NCAA Football 2007. The aformentioned bug awarded yardage based on when the player gets tackled, without taking into account any momentum. This causes the short run nearly impossible, and changes how you play the sport completely. IGN thought the bug was so bad, that they actually re-reviewed the game, dropping it from an 8.3 to a 6.9. Well, it looks like EA's getting the message. They're planning on releasing a patch, something Madden PSP owners weren't fortunate enough to get on their buggy copies.While it's commendable that EA is working on a fix, a more reliable solution would be to not ship games that have game-wrecking bugs in them.

While I'm glad to hear the patch is coming, now I'm concerned that this could be the beginning of "release buggy games, then patch later" syndrome that plagued PC games.

Is this patch also going to update the rosters? Some still have players from last year. Also, the top 25 rankings are from last year too. Will the patch fix that?

Not sure if this is patchable or not, but many of the players are have the wrong type of helmet for their respective postion. (i.e. wideouts with a kickers helmet) I hope it is not the case from comment two, about buggy games. EA sports has always come out with great football produces. I am very surprised about the PSP NCAA 07 bugs.
