There is a franchise mode. Or do you mean that it is watered down?

For anybody on the fence when you play this game you will have a hard time putting it down that simple. If you are on a budget and worried about the risk simply trade a few games in at Gamestop you will be glad you did. Will you see issues yes but above all will have blast thats whats important.

Thought we were told to stop discussing his character like 10 pages ago, if you hate him or the thread, best thing you can do is (spare us, and) not reply so it goes away.

This is nothing more than one person's opinion about the game. If you don't agree with it, so be it, enjoy the game and move on. Same for those of you that DO agree. If this confirms your decision of not purchasing, then do the same, and move on.

I managed to lose again this time to New Orleans with Green Bay. Even on Medium New Orleans can move the ball. I made some mistakes on D and threw some picks but it was a lot of fun, Flaws all around, poor clock management, not kicking a field goal, while in field goal formation they just let the clock run out, then were too aggressive at the end of the game and almost let me win.

If you keep in mind it is way different than what you have played before and have some patience I think you will find yourself having a good time.

Interested to see what they will come up with next time, hopefully they improve on what is good and not water it down to appease the standard football audience. I would like a better view of of the O-line when I am passing or just a little more mobility and time, perhaps with practice I will get better. On D, it can be a lot of fun when you can follow the action but if you start hitting A to follow the ball the camera will disorient you and you may let up a big play.

Well then this post should be locked because DickDalewood said it's just one opinion...in that case if you make a post in the forum about one's opinion then it's only logical to have people discuss that opinion and what are the reasons for that opinion. You can't have it both ways.

Why anybody would take what pasta padre says seriously is beyond me. The guy is a huge ea fanboy and doesn't even try to hide it. Backbreaker has a lot of flaws, but is also an extremely fun game to play. It's a shame how some people are so easily swayed by some random idiots opinion.
