Re: developer diary 3

Good find, you even beat the official forums where at any given time there are 50 people constantly looking for new videos to post.

Looks sweet, even though those were shot a couple months ago...before all the alpha gameplay vids and everything we've seen since.

That run @ about :24 looked awesome. I really think this game is going to be a lot of fun.

Re: developer diary 3

Nice video, but here's hoping they release a video regarding the in-game customization options sometime soon.

Re: developer diary 3

My excitement level after watching the last two videos is back to being high and the game is back to being a probable first day purchase. Still some stuff that I don't like, like a realistic pocket not forming similar to both Madden and NCAA and I saw at least one back foot throws that looked a little to accurate.

Overall though the game looks more and more like it should be a blast to play even if it does have some flaws. I particularly like how the running looked it that video. Saw a good mix of a little longer runs along with some that got stuffed. I still love the camera angle as well.

Re: developer diary 3

Some of those running moves looked sharp. I have to say.. these tackles are just phenomenal. I'm trying to be critical of other areas of the game but man I am just dazzled by those gorgeous hits.

The DE swim move looked AMAZING.

Not to be Debbie Downer... But this game looks like Blitz to me...

Re: developer diary 3

Real football to Blitz.

Probably somewhere in the middle.

If this looks like blitz to you, than I wonder what you think of Madden because from what I've seen so for.. nothing comes close to more realism in a videogame than this... I'm not saying its the greatest game ever, but its definately the most realistic and closer to sim than madden. Hands down.

Re: developer diary 3

you know, I was always sold on the camera - and a whole new vision or method of making a sports game like they have.

But it's solidified even more after playing this year's 2k baseball game. Literally ALL I've played is my player mode. I think it's so addictive because the immersion factor is so much more intense and better when you're right down there on the field.

The blitz comments are getting a little awkward too...I mean did you watch the video? I don't see any super-human things going on, no helmets popping off, no bones breaking and no vengeful late hits. The comments are totally like I just don't see it.

Completely agree, I have no idea what in the video even looked remotely similar to Blitz. Most of the stuff looked pretty realistic to me. No idea what video those guys are watching

Oh well, every thread it seems with Backbreaker there are always people with the generic Blitz comment even if it doesn't make any sense.

Love how those people who make those comments never have any concrete examples in their post as well.
