    Re: FaceBreaker Demo Released, Impressions Here

    There's a lot of rhythm and intuitiveness to this game and how good does it feel to get a knockdown on your opponent (I play MEDIUM difficulty)? I like the way you can sneak a big punch in and the parries and dodges are fun to execute.

        I played the demo on my ps3 about 15 minutes ago. I see why it limits you to 90 seconds. So it leaves you thinking there's more to it than what you get, but I know the demo shows the game. I deleted it after 1 match and googled "ea facebreaker demo sucks" this was one of the 1st hits. haha

        I think the gameplay was crap and R2R was a ton better than this. I think you are a friend/creator or have some type of connection with the game to keep praising it. And to be honest, the whole demo was trash. The style of fighting/speed/limited moves. And for your whole "sneaking" a punch in. How do you manage that? The gameplay is so fast you have no time for that. And if the punches are considered "sneaking" in, then I snuck in punches the whole 90 seconds. The game has no depth and it's just trying to attract the older players that played R2R.

          Most disappointing demo I've ever played. Thanks for saving me $50 though.

          I found the demo to be absolutely terrible.

              I would have gone in a simplistic Punchout direction, but I am glad some people are enjoying it.

                Ha, strong words. You wouldn't even play it for the points EG?

                  If I got it for free I would. But I don't have Gamefly or a good rental place near me, so I'm guessing not

                      It would probably be a decent long weekend rental, but I can't see it having enough depth to be worth owning. Oh well, one less game to buy this fall.

                        Why's that funny?

                        That just shows that others think it sucks too. I could've picked one of the other 27,500 hits google found. The demo has been out what, 2 days and that many threads already pop up.

                        Face it. THE GAME SUCKS.

                          Hey, you're the one that laughed (haha) afterwords.
                          Waldog's elaborate search data aside, I have to say after several more "mini bouts" I have grown tired of the game. I was caught up in the frenetic action for awhile but then it got boring-too much dodging and punching. If EA had chosen to make it more "boxing like" they would have been better off, but they will not risk compromising Fight Night 4 by making an arcade boxing game. I played the game long enough to know I won't buy it. I went in with an open mind, was briefly impressed, and then deeply bored.

                                Don't try to be smooth. "Sophistication" has nothing to do it as I own and love many different games with varying degrees of difficulty and gameplay styles (as many other os'ers do). Not everyone agrees on every game and what works for some people doesn't work for others.
