Backbreaker Website Launches

Earlier today the official website for Backbreaker went live. After a countdown on the page for the last three weeks it seemed as though the build-up was going to result in more than it actually did. No significant new game information has been revealed nor has the finalized release date or price. Those could very well be Tuesday April 27th and $49.99 based on Gamestop info but they have yet to be confirmed.

There are a handful of new screenshots that can be viewed on the website. It is also now known that there are 56 teams included in the game. Those will go along with the customization feature that will provide opportunity to create teams.

Unfortunately in terms of videos those still remain listed as “coming soon” and until gameplay is shown there will be a level of skepticism surrounding Backbreaker. I will be really interested to see how far the game has come since having it demoed to me at E3.

    I can't wait for this game. With full customization and a logo creator (not to mention the NaturalMotion/Endorphin tech), who needs the NFL or Madden anymore?

    See ya later, EA.

    If EA buys backbreaker/NM tech you will be all on Backbreakers johnson…

    Besides, you are the same dude that pumped up facebreaker and said Boom Blox was more anticipated than GTA4 (one of the highest selling games ever). No cred bro, just (EA)Peter's lil boy toy LOL

    Yes, I would love to hear some more details about how the 56 teams can be used and any online ability for team, franchises, etc. I guess we wait for the website to get updates.

    Fake teams fake players games will never sell good. It can have the best gameplay ever and still will fail.

    So stoked for this game! Looks awesome.

    I don't even care about the NFL license anymore, I just want a real football game. I can't stand Madden's same old garbage every year anymore.

    I think Backbreaker is going to end up being such a huge disappointment for the few people who are holding it up as the football messiah. From everything I've read there is little reason to think it will be a good football game but could end up being fun anyway.

    I just hope this brings something new and is playable enough for me to have a fun semi believable game of football. I'm going into it with tempered expectations and am hoping it surprises me.

    They need other game modes to make it work, I still play NFL Street 2 with all my buddies, 2 on 2 Open Field Showdown is still the best with four friends.

  • Keith.

    You're right…for closed minded people like yourself, who keep taking the same old shit packaged up every year by Tiburon and love it, this game won't stand a chance.

    For those of us who are looking for a football game to take the next giant leap forward, though, it could be golden.

    This game is for the people who want somethin new, unlike Madden and their same shit every year….To the people talking about the diving tackles, who said you HAD to dive? You can tackle whenever you get to the ballcarrier OR you can maybe dive a couple yards out and be more likely to get juked, spun, stiff armed, etc. etc. I'm buying this game DAY 1 because you can create your own team and create the WHOLE roster, there's a logo editor where you can create that too, endzone art, etc. etc. also there's a Franchise Mode, there's 56 pre-made teams, and you can also create your own. I don't need Madden or the NFL to enjoy football, to the people who just accept Madden for 60+ dollars and are playing the SAME OLD SHIT EVERY YEAR, I feel sorry for ya….Wait….No I don't….Enjoy Can-den 11 ;-)

    People are hyping this way too much and I think that even the developers of Backbreaker know this, which is in turn probably the reason why there hasn't been much info about the game.

    The devs described the game as arcade but people are assuming/thinking that this will be a super sim which is probably (again) why they haven't posted that much info about the game so that they would avoid disappointing people.

    I honestly wonder if people are truly hyped for this becuase of Euphoria or if they are hyped for it just becuase "It's not Madden". If Backbreaker never existed and if EA announced that Madden was going to have Euphoria, I bet all the $ in the world that you would see people say, "Euphoria is just another gimmickz that EA is tryin' to scam you guyz wit."
