Just found out about this when searching for something on Twitter. Anybody hear of this yet?

Ha thats funny! I just found out about this game about 2 or 3 days ago and at that point they hadnt released any screenshots because they werent happy with how the crowd looked.

The guy making this, David Winter, has made a few other football games, but as far as i know, he made them all by himself without a team of developers. I have only played one of his other games, Maximum football which came out in about 2006. That game was a creators dream as you could literally custimize everything and anything, but the gameplay was terrible.

If he does get the CFL license, and he does have a team of developers this time, which I think he does, I think they are focusing more heavily on gameplay this time around, which would be a good thing. I love any kind of football, so I'll be happy to give this a try when it comes out.

I had great hopes for MaxFB, and agree with your assessment - there were great ideas for the game, but the execution didn't work. That said, this was the closest thing to Front Page Sports I have seen since that series died, so I will be in line to buy when he releases this.

I will buy this day one to show support for another football game. I played his previous game on PC. It had some of the best customization I have seen. Game was rough but really great considering he was the only one working on it.

Some of my favorite football sim memories (post FBPro 98) are from when the previous version of this game came out.

That was a fun time...

They just posted a picture of it in action. I really like how the lighting looks (although it is a smaller picture). High hopes for this!

So....yuck. High hopes gone.

High hopes, yes, are gone. I like the arcade-style feel I get from watching the video, I would buy it for that alone. Really reminds me of Madden 10 for some reason. Also supporting Canuck for putting in all this effort.
