I'm hoping to brush up on my running game. I was wanting to practice with Oakland, as they have a solid RB, according to the demo guide, but what you're telling me is their O-line is questionable. I'm hoping that if I practice enough with a decent RB I'll learn how to best run the ball and get away from relying on my passing game so much, especially with a sub-par QB.

At that point, you have a game where people glitch and come up with ways to cheat the system, since it is basically boiling down to who can nano blitz the most. Not really my idea of fun.
You must not have paid attention to the defense if you don't see how easy it is to blitz in this game.

If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

It's easy to blitz the AI right now. I prefer to play online, so I am not too worried. If that is the only complaint about the cam angle, then I think it's a success.

Re: Backbreaker Demo Available, Post Your Impressions Here

Well, I've been playing since Friday night and impressed. For a first time developer from across the water making a America sports games it's pretty darn good. I know the demo is dumbed down but I actually like it. I am enjoying the camera. To me it seems imersive. This without a doubt a day one purchases. I just wish they had fatigue and definately injuries. Maybe next time.

The camera isn't even close to being the only problem with the game and it doesn't make sense to me how you think being able to blitz will somehow be harder if you play online. The computer is still controlling the offensive line.

I saw in one of the menus that A was the "Action Button." Weird. I'd prefer to have the choice to go for pick or swat, personally.

cool.. Well don't buy it and enjoy another football game then. It has not been as big of an issue for many others so far. There is no reason that after dealing with Nanos for years, that we can not figure out how to handle a blitz in BB.

I'm not going to argue with someone who clearly is not even into this game. Seems pointless.
