So how many people who .....

...bashed this game when it was first announced, saying it wouldn't have a chance, only to have played the demo, and now has a change of heart?

They probably won't have a change of heart seeing as they'll only play the game to find flaws..

Very few people on the internet eat humble pie, they usually change their username.

I was in the minority for BackBreaker, I was feeling good about it, and the demo did not let me down.

I do admit that I would have loved a traditional camera angle, but with how smooth the gameplay is I will adjust to the camera they gave us.

You got to believe there are options to adjust the camera.

I haven't played it enough to really form an opinion, I think it's fun, but my initial impression of how the game plays reminds me more of Wii vs 360/PS3 debates.

My point being the Wii's motion controls are fun and add a lot to some games, but I don't want to play every game like that, as someone who prefers a more traditional experience.

The way that translates to BB is the gameplay is different and pretty fun, but I haven't played it enough to say it's worth replacing a more traditional experience, rather instead provide an alternative from time to time.

If hits and mini games were a barometer of success then Blitz sequels would have done better, so no, I am not saying this will suddenly sell a million because of the demo.

My opinion could certainly change, I've only been able to play it for an hour or so... just a couple games and a run through tackle alley (which was a blast, this should have been a $15 game on PSN/Live a year ago) so that's why I haven't posted much in the impressions thread.

I was critical of things, and I have continued to be critical of things, but I've also always tried to give credit where it's due. No change of heart. I will say, the demo has done better than I expected so far.
