I also do not think this title will be released this year. The camera issues alone make me think this will kill the game on the outset.

It's only an issue right now because they haven't implemented the system they want yet for the camera. It seems like it might be tricky to do on defense because I don't think they want to pause the action when you switch players, but it could be conceivably jarring to switch views at a quick rate without some sort of slowdown during the switch.

In before pantherbeast...

Nice write up, looks like it could be a very good gaem when it eventually comes out, whenever that is. Early '10 would be my guess right now.

Re: E3 Backbreaker Hands-Off Preview

so chis, chase, anyone...

why the hell was there an embargo?

It seems they had no REASON to hold out on anything...

they made it seem like it was a publisher/business issue that needed clearing up first - but from the sound of it, there was absolutely no reason at all.

Usually there is an embargo so one outlet can release the info first, then the rest. Or sometimes it's just news a company doesn't want released until such and such date. It's definitely arbitrary at best, if it's the latter in this instance. But really it's just part of how the business works, for better or worse.

I never for a second got that idea during my discussion with them.

They wanted to release some assets alongside the info, so that played a part in it. Also, sometimes you just want to get away from the chaos that is E3 so your title doesn't get lost in the shuffle. The embargo was actually for next Monday before, so they did bump it up. (Thursday also tends to be a better day to release info than a Monday because you'll get more coverage overall).

It's unfair to assume that in this case.
