The full website for Facebreaker went live yesterday, replacing the blog-like structured site that had been in place since the game's announcement in late January. A new character is going to debut every other week and while I have discussed it previously the site does confirm that the game will be releasing on September 3rd and for $50. Though there isn't really anything new right now it'll be a place to check in on a regular basis as they've shown an active interest in the community and h...

Facebreaker shows off two new characters
EA Sports has released some new screenshots from Facebreaker featuring a character going by the name Voodoo along with a new trailer which puts the spotlight on Steve. While there has been an inordinate amount of screenshots and trailers released for the game thus far they have generally centered around Romeo and to a lesser extent Molotov. The original trailer gave glances at a few more characters to come but this is the first time they've really shifted the focus to others. You can check ...

Facebreaker will release at lower price
It appears that Facebreaker will be the next EA Sports game to get a price reduction. This follows the releases of March Madness 08 and FIFA Street 3 ($50) and NFL Tour ($40) which all had an initial sale price lower than the standard. Gamestop has now updated Facebreaker with the new information ("price drop" of $10) which turned out to be the first indications for those previous releases as well. As of now it looks as though Facebreaker will sell for $50 which is the same as the upcoming ...

New Facebreaker video and screens
As I alluded to yesterday it appears that Facebreaker will be releasing for the PS3/360 earlier than originally anticipated. The dates have been moved up to the first week of September.

There are now four additional screenshots (found in the gallery) and a new video which...
