I agree. But saying that you hate this game off of a 1 minute video is completely insane.

This happens with all games, not just exclusive to BB.

It's all just a matter of opinion.

Ya, I read before the basic or acrade mode there is only a few plays. In pro there are more plays so no worries about Tecmo Bowl sized playbooks lol.

Not bad so far...looking forward to being able to get my hands on a final copy. I liked the replays so far...Hope Commentary isn't stale.

There is no commentary in BB.

after watching the vids i say no thanks, i'm not wasting my money on something that will just collect dust because its a mediocre game. And by the way i'm not buying Madden either because ive been burned too many times with that crappy game. Looks like football seems to be the only sport that cant get a decent game out there. I'll get NCAA Football only because i love college football too much not to get it but this game doesnt look like its worth a purchase and i'm too skeptical about getting Madden again.

I thought the vid was ok. Nothing that really made me say "WOW" but I really look forward to there field of view that there offering.

That was the shortest gameplay clip in the history of gameplay clips.

Why the heck is the center a good yard in front of everyone else? In the first play the QB was supposed to be under center but he was a yard behind him. What the?

The DE in the first play had outside contain. There was a blitz from the MLB and ROLB. He took the LT wide because that left the middle open for the blitz. The LDT was double teamed, then the C saw the MLB. The LG didn't release the DT to the C, so the C went and blocked the MLB. The DT beat the LG with an inside swim move.

Now what was the DE doing? I don't know. He was wide and normally would have been to wide to make a play. The QB was moving to the right where he has a double team block, so maybe the DE didn't want to get caught too far up field and wide if the QB took off. It didn't look good, looked like suction blocking in Madden, but hopefully that is a bad player.

The CB was beat, so if he turns around, he would have been torched. He got beat on a simple route, but he had saftey help, so he looked to be covering the shorter inside routes. Turning around to find the ball once he was next to the WR would have looked a lot better.

Hopefully they fix those 2 issues or it only happens on arcade mode.

Re: Backbreaker Video: Offensive Passing Alpha Gameplay

OK guys, a couple of observations. First, every play is going to be different. It's not like Madden, where we see a flaw and keep seeing it due to an animation trigger. What we saw on those 2 plays will probably never happen again. The ol/dl interactions will be different on the next play. The dbs will react differently on the next play. It's all based on where the players are at that time. I think that's the point that we're missing. Everyone has great observations, but every play's going to be a fresh experience. Not even the guys in the NFL make every play everytime. Sometimes they get beat, take the wrong angle, miss a block, run into a block, etc....

Now, I think we've all been burned by that other game and we are picking this game apart with the same mentality. I think we need to change our mindset and remember that every play will be different. No 2 plays will be the same....ever. No trigered or canned animations, just good ole physics-just like the football gods intended.

I'll say it again....The DB should have never turned around. BB got it right!!!!!

Re: Backbreaker Video: Offensive Passing Alpha Gameplay

I see some potential, but some of the movements are a bit stiff and whats with the sound when the football is thrown?
