(How) Did the BackBreaker demo shift your decision to buy/pass?

Yeah the time per quarter was a poor decision and really hinders the demo.

Getting it for damn sure. I think a lot of people will not like it out the box because it represents a change from the usual. I'm already looking foward to BB2! GO HAWKS!!

Leaning to pass. The camera angle is a deal breaker for me.

I wasn't interested in buying it before and the demo didn't change my mind.

Def buy! the game is worth it for the tackle alley alone. I was having real troubles running the ball but now that im using the red team which i think is the Oakland Scourge im getting busy with long runs. The game is very different and worthy of a purchase not because it's better then other offerings ( i think they are still needed ) but because variety is needed.

I've played three games and I'm already seeing things in this game that i havent seen in any other football game to date. Whats really impressive so far is how tight the controls are and the play execution. Once that ball snaps you know collisions are about to happen not some canned animation.

From leaning to buy to leaning to pass. If I pass it'll be a discounted purchase later on just to mess around with it for sure.

I think the game looks great, but I already knew I would like the physics/engine/environment before the demo. What I wasn't 100% about was the camera, and I tried to get into it but I don't think it's my style. If they patch in another camera angle I will re-visit my decision.
