I don't know, I get the feeling it will be very refreshing.......I want to just run the ball to see what will happen next....everything is suppose to be different...and I want to see it... I want to see if I almost make it through a hole with out, just bumping into the back of my blockers......so much stuff I want to see running the ball...

then there is passing....close up view, I feel I will have to really read the defense...and know the routes and where everyone is going......as well as making quick decisions.........or maybe I'll play Receiver and let the cpu take over with the passing, and just run routes....

then there is defense.....playing LB...and of course Safety...or even Corner... I love playing CB on Madden........so it should be interesting in this game...

and that is just with gameplay....... I wonder how I'm going to do the two season modes......one NFL season...and the other Road to BackBreaker mode...that should be fun.....

and of course there is customization....... I don't know, I can't really see myself getting bored with the game quickly or anything.......maybe frustrated if there are problems....but I doubt bored... I mean I know certain things going in....no commentary......but that is ok....I'll be too busy trying to pick my next play.

I agree, the unpredictability of every single play is what will keep me interested. In other games once you've seen all the animations, there are rarely plays where you jump out of your seat. But even months after BB releases, we will be seeing completely unique plays.

Well, let's hope the plays are legitimately unpredictable. There's more to unpredictability in football than simply making the tackles always look different. Hopefully coverages/blocking varies at the right balance. Unpredictability is a big selling point for them, but I think that concept goes beyond Euphoria offers. My problem with that is it seems like anything beyond what Euphoria offers gameplay-wise is kind of second class.

I'm still getting it.. so far.

Can anyone let me know when the demo is going to be released? Thx

[DavonBrown]

No-one knows.

I'm buying on day one also. Can't wait.

Yeah I guess it's going to be unpredictable, mainly compared to other football games. In games like Madden and APF, most of the time when an animation occurs you already know if you are going to get tackled or not. Whereas in this, you won't know until it happens.
