Backbreaker Updated Hands-On Preview: Angle of Attack (Gamespot)

[Afrikan]

maybe this is just being optimistic....but I wouldn't be surprised if they added injuries after releases when they have their first or second patch.... they talked about it before and said it is possible....but there were probably problems implementing it realistically...and probably needed more programing and was one of the things they felt they can leave out for now, while focusing on other stuff like Leagues, franchise and stuff....

either way game looks nice and I'm even more excited... I can't wait.

more previews this week...F'n yeah baby....

also I can see some reviewers just nitpicking the game for various things... this is a new game from a new company...they are an easy target.....example "its too hard to look behind you when running the ball and causes your player run in different directions"....well how about you don't look back....maybe look up at the jumbo-tron instead

Definitely would like to have a slo-mo vid. I'm sure one will pop up on youtube soon.

Also Tackle alley is online! Hell yes. I'm sure this will probably be one of my favorite modes, no doubt Offline/Online. Today has been a good day. I was expecting this to come out tomorrow but, I just happened to catch it over in the BB forum.

Man.... that looks a lot more fun than I expected to be honest! The blocking animations look bad, but the tackling looks like a blast.

Is it going to be a the whole vid or just cut up into gameplay? Either way I'm watching it.

Not sure how long that kind of stuff takes though.

Yeah but, this was most likely from the old build months back. I hope they are improved though because, they looked stiff from what I could tell. A slow-mo vid will give us a better look at it but, until I see a final build(with just straight gameplay) I'm not going to say much about it.

The game does look fun though. The camera angle/adjustments was a lot better than I expected it to be. I can rest easy on the camera angle now which was one of the most important things IMO.

I'm just going to do the new gameplay clips, not the whole video. It should be done and onto youtube in a couple hours. (youtubes processing and uploading time takes forever)

The tackle at 2:29 is really sweet. There are like 5 guys coming down on the ball carrier, it looks awesome!!! ( pro-tak ) Oh and the crowd looks tremendous as well at 4:54.

I know people are just going to have a hard time getting used the camera view.

But, I think one big seller is going to be this...!!!! "which you create from scratch using the game's extensive team, uniform, and logo creator. You can save up to 32 created teams in the game, and if you aren't much of an artist, you can copy an existing team's logo and adapt it to your liking by changing designs and color schemes"
