Backbreaker worth the buy

[KC_Classic7807]

I'm thinking about purchusing Backbreaker, and I was wondering if it was worth the buy or not? I played the demo and I love it, its so life like. But in your opinion what do u guys think of it

I love it. Don't expect it to be perfect, though. Post-Patch is much better, too.

Buy the game.

There is no reason not to now.

• Price is low.

• Quality is much better post-patch.

• Replay cameras are amazing.

• Physics are jaw-dropping.

• You will never see the same play twice.

• Expect moments that will force you to go buy a camera/capture software.

Buy new if you can. These devs need all the support they can. Let's make BB2 a reality.

If you liked the demo then you.ll love the game post patch.......Now I cant tell you to buy or not......but if you do buy it .......buy new....Give the money to the makers not gamestop

Yep, at its price point now, it is certainly worth buying (new, so the developers get the support). Still has room to grow (for us offline franchise guys at least), but I'm still glad I bought my copy. The more support they get, the better the odds BB2 sees the light of day!

Its worth it. Its not perfect but its a blast to play. Buy it new to support the company.

Had it since drop day and can't be happier. Just need to build up a core group of XBL friends to play online and it'll have a steep re-playability value.

I bought it on the release day and I love it. Even after seeing the huge price drop, it doesn't upset me. I say go for it man, why not? Enjoy the experience

The update improves the game, but the CPU can't run the ball and now the HUMAN can't either. I just read a post where the guy says he's running away from the O-Line. If that is acceptable to you, buy the game.

The passing game is a blast now with the improved O-Line blocking. If you can accept that you are in a "pass first football world" buy the game. Put it on PRO/HARD and play pass defense 90% of the time. You will be challenged.

If you're not a franchise player and enjoyed the demo then I'd say it's worth at least a rental to scratch the itch, it really depends on what you want out of the game... the full game plays much differently, even pre-patch. If you primarily want to play people online, probably missed that window too.

Again, it really depends on how you play your football games. If you're a team tweaker and play mostly exhibition, or don't care about the lack of depth of the franchise modes I'd say it's a must buy if you loved the demo.

I don't see anything that I said that was unfair to the game, the franchise modes are feature barren, and there are posts here weeks old saying that online is all but dead... the latter should be briefly relieved by the patch but shouldn't be anywhere close to the retail release and would remain true unless you have a set of friends you always play against.

It's worth the buy if it will play toward the strengths of the reason(s) you play football on consoles, and if it does buy it new to support the cause.

Re: Backbreaker worth the buy

I juat boutght it new, I couldn't not buy it today The price dropped from 40 to 30 dollars, There was no way i could pass up on that. And I play football games just because the sport is amazing I play, watch, and i fell i have a pretty good understanding of the game. That was the exact reasoning for me buying it. Its football i gotta buy. Why would u just wanna play one football games company a year, Thats silly to me
