NCAA college sport from EA Sports/Visual Concepts, Football 2004 edition. US college teams, sim gameplay, TV presentation. Decent execution but a very narrow NCAA niche. Of no particular interest outside the US audience.

Is NCAA Football 2004 still worth playing in 2026?
This EA Sports college football entry once offered a rich dynasty mode and an impressive licensed roster, but time has been harsh. The on-field feel comes across as stiff today, and the long absence of NCAA licenses since makes it more of a curiosity than a pleasure. Without specific nostalgia for 2000s college football, the present-day appeal stays very limited against modern genre standards.
