yeah im happy they did this also cause it looks "new". Its a breath of fresh air and i can tell by just looking at it if it plays half as good as it looks it will be hard to take a animation game serious, sure i'll play it but in the back of my mind i will be dissatisfied. Im a huge NFL guy but the fact you can create 32 teams is just what i need. I will remake the nfl and the editor is compared to the one used in Forza so thats saying something. I'm sure someone will re-create a 32 team nfl roster that looks the part. We will just have to find a way to share it. I mean just look at the 2k5 boards people are making nfl2k11 !!! in the end its just a game i just find it great to have options. I will be trying them all cause im sure each will provide something different

Now that you say it, thats an excellent comparison. It does remind me of the very first 2k. Aren't they supposedly making a hockey game next?

I dont think they should waste time with that. Just start work on another installment of football and start adding whats missing without hesitation.

Looks good but i need a demo before i decided if i want to buy it.

I'll definitely be getting this one - looks ridiculous. No NFL...no big deal - I play in a semi pro football league right now, so there is some franchise report material to get my creativity going with this game.

Sick!

The big, lanky player models definitely remind me of NFL2K. Unfortunately this game doesn't benefit from having the NFL license.

For perspective, I've looked at the video/commercial and tried to imagine the fake players/fake teams with real NFL players, real teams. I'm picturing Troy Polomalu delivering a big hit on Chad Ochocinco, or Reggie Bush trying to stretch dive over the pile at the goal line. Even for what it's lacking, just having the NFL/NFLPA licenses increases Backbreaker's appeal many times over. It really brings home how much EA has hamstrung other devs and the disadvantages of trying to develop a non-licensed football game

When the NFL created teams videos start being posted alot of people will probably reconsider their stances.

I posted these before....they are from members of the official forum....It should look very similar to these...

and take a look at this stadium and players....it really looks like a similar setting...same field color, similar stadium shape, and heck both teams look like they have matching uniform colors and stripes as the real thing.
