On the backbreaker website if you go to pre-order you can click on gamestop.com which says release 1st of June or you can click on game.co.uk which give the 25th of June. I doubt a gamesite listed on backbreker would have the wrong release date.

Ebay from the UK is still listing as 28th of may. and australia is listing 27th of may.

Although, these sites will hardly update an unknown, unpopular game.

I am very glad it is only $49.99 as opposed to madden being $59.99

If you are right and this turns out to be actually true and not just NM's answer to EA's annual hype-fest (ie. - a total bald-faced lie), then BB will turn out to be an amazing game. I am praying that it does because this is quite honestly the first football game on the lost generation that I think is offering a chance at that elusive "next-gen" mantra...

Tomorrow after the download drops I will either be: or ....here's hoping for the former and not so much the latter...

Seeing the euphoria engine at work in Red Dead Redemption just amped my excitement for this game. I have yet to see a kill that looked the same as others and the animations that occur are so life-like.

Trying to tame my excitement and remain realistic. Hopefully a day one purchase!
