The Highly Customizable Backbreaker Scores June 1
BackbreakerSo what if EA has the NFL rights through 2012? That hasn't stopped NaturalMotion from developing a highly customizable football title destined to appeal to those who just wanna hit and run.
NaturalMotion has announced a $50 price point for Backbreaker, which is now set to release for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on June 1. In addition to some supreme physics-based animations - NaturalMotion is responsible for in-game animation tools, Euphoria, Endorphin, and Morpheme - we'll also be looking at what should be the most customizable pigskin game ever. You will have control over many different aspects of this production, including the season mode (which you can jack up to 32 games) and fully customizable teams and players. You can choose everything, right down to the logos for your uniform and the design of the end zones in your chosen stadium, so feel free to be as creative as you wish. We're awfully excited about this one; we were excited when we first heard about it several years back. It seems like Tecmo Bowl for a new generation...or you can just get Tecmo Bowl Throwback. That's another option, of course.
Anyway, we're looking forward to cracking a few skulls and bulling our way through defenders on our way to a TD. This one oughta be a blast.

on-topic: Good to hear American football fans have more games to choose from... I guess.

Best comment thread so far.
I'm gonna go back to my round of Super Street Fighter IV, then get a start on Gof of War Collection, play through God of War 3 again (the ending was just ... WOW!!) and get a start on Final Fantasy XIII.
Huh? Did someone say something about football? Isn't it that steroids and sex scandels thing on the news?

I can't even connect to a ranked match properly.
im glad they fixed some of the characters, *cough* Zangief *cough*.
But wth normals have just about as much priority as an ex.
And some of the hit boxes have drastically changed like vegas stupid fly through air thing

Now I've been a fan of Madden since the 16-bit days and while it's been recognized as the standard in video football games, a little variety never hurt !
I think I'll give Back Breaker a look see ! It can't be no worse than the rehashed crap EA calls Madden that we've been subjected too since the 16-bit days !
