Our expectations should not be so high, but some of us have longed for a completely different football game for 6 years now. We all have a different opinion of what we see as good, great, and/or horrible.

I putting my money on this game this year. Also, I stay in contact with the dev team adn things aren't always going the way they planned for them to, but the continue to work toward making Backbreaker better. Many people don't know what goes on behind the scenes when a team is developing a video game. NaturalMotion is a company that holds itself to higher standards, small as it may be, but a strong force nontheless.

Guys, please do yourselves a favor and judge for yourselves. Do what I do. Watch the videos first without sound, then with sound, then don't read any of the reviews. I don't care what someone else thinks of any game that I play. I will be the one paying for it. We all know that just because a game is popular and has been around for many years, does not mean it is good.

For instance, I can't stand watching baseball, but I am actually going to pick up MLB 10 because of how it is put together. MLB 2k10 falls way short compared to it. I played the demo and I have not read any reviews. I have only watched the videos, but I love what I see.

I hear ya, Turf. I just see so many guys on here what I see as blindly chopping down legitimate concerns so I feel compelled to defend them.

I want BB to be a great game too. I want it to be something that I can be in leagues with for years on end.

That being said, I won't buy it to "make a point" to EA. I'll buy it if I think it's worth the cost... just like any other purchase I make.

Thoroughly unimpressed so far. Guess we'll see come May....
I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

Right and how much advertising does 2k do with IGN? Might that have anything to do with the relative closeness in scores given by IGN, even when the games deserve no such thing? I can understand that you disagree, but the concept is not laughable, not in the time since the Gerstmann firing from GameSpot. It's perfectly reasonable that ad dollars play a role in review scores in web reviews.
