Glad to hear that Val.

Im waiting for the PS3 demo to drop......Also, how much do we know of how deep online play will be?

IF I like the gameplay and feel good about the camera, that is going to make or break for me. I dont see myself playing this if there are no online leagues.

Online play is just exhibition games

I am liking the demo so far. I see a major issue right not I havn't seen mentioned, although I didn't really all 100 pages of the post. I have called punt return and got flagged for roughing the kicker 5 times in a row. My luck can't be that bad. The replays were really nice though watching the kicker barely get the ball off and get creamed.

Yeah, this happens at various difficulties during certain team matchups. Some people rarely have it happen (like the INT problem) but many have seen it.

Even better is half the time it doesn't get called, someone just flat out demolishes the kicker anyways.

But I'm guessing you accidentally the whole thing, right?

There are atleast 5-6 interceptions per game, I ****ing hate the passing game on it. And every time I play the CPU, they miss all their field goals and hardly ever complete a pass.

That is my main 2 gripes. Running the ball is hard as ****, but I spent 2 hours in training mode last night practicing running, tackle alley, and defense. I have gotten better, but the passing game kills me. I wished we had these graphics, animations, gameplay, but with our normal camera views. Shew. I am not buying on day one, I will wait a week or 2 to see what you guys think.

Try the "Alternate" controls...it makes passing easier. I had the same gripe until I switched over.

Just wanted to report there's some hope for me yet to play BackBreaker. Their community manager asked me to email them the problem I was having. I recognize I'm an outside case, but I'm definitely hoping they'll be able to make an option to turn that end of tackle blur off so I can play the game. If I get word the change will be made, I'll pick up the game as soon as it's available.

Thumbs up for community management!

We hope something works out for you, at least before BB2. This game will be fun, although a little shallow in the gameplay department I am afraid. BB2 will be a must buy. This game has great potential.

It is backbreaker and we don't protect the punters here. J/k I didn't see it mentioned anywhere but figured I wasn't the only one to see it. I had it on Pro/Medium. Hopefully this was tweaked in retail.

Re: Backbreaker Demo Available, Post Your Impressions Here

Has anyone figured out how to quickly switch from your first receiver to your 4th or anything like that? because right now, I have to throw to the first or 2nd option or I get sacked because I simply can't move my focus fast enough. And it's not like I look and see if my 1st is open, then switch to the 2nd, see that he's covered and switch again. I'm saying I hike and immediately try to switch to the guy on the opposite side of the field because I know he has a mismatch but I can't get to him fast enough.

You could switch pre-snap by holding LB then moving right stick.

Before the play hold LT and move the right stick left and right. You can pick who you want to focus on when the play starts.

Re: Backbreaker Demo Available, Post Your Impressions Here

I consider BB to be the first TRUE next gen(current gen now) football game since the xbox360/ps3 were released. I know they said that they wanted a on the field audio presentation, but could you imagine if these game had a sweet custom sountrack system, along with a all new commentary presentation like weve never seen before? If this game could do those 2 things and improve on a few AI issues, and clean up the camera angles(tweak them to perfection), this game would be simply insane. A 10 of 10, and standard of which all other football games would be measured. Oh yeah, would love non futuristic uniforms as well.

Anyone remember this commercial in 06?
