I played the demo on my ps3 about 15 minutes ago. I see why it limits you to 90 seconds. So it leaves you thinking there's more to it than what you get, but I know the demo shows the game. I deleted it after 1 match and googled "ea facebreaker demo sucks" this was one of the 1st hits. haha

I think the gameplay was crap and R2R was a ton better than this. I think you are a friend/creator or have some type of connection with the game to keep praising it. And to be honest, the whole demo was trash. The style of fighting/speed/limited moves. And for your whole "sneaking" a punch in. How do you manage that? The gameplay is so fast you have no time for that. And if the punches are considered "sneaking" in, then I snuck in punches the whole 90 seconds. The game has no depth and it's just trying to attract the older players that played R2R.

Most disappointing demo I've ever played. Thanks for saving me $50 though.

I found the demo to be absolutely terrible.

I agreed.

I would have gone in a simplistic Punchout direction, but I am glad some people are enjoying it.

Ha, strong words. You wouldn't even play it for the points EG?

If I got it for free I would. But I don't have Gamefly or a good rental place near me, so I'm guessing not

Oh, you Googled "ea facebreaker demo sucks" and it was one of the first HITS!! You can't see me right now but I am literally on the floor in stitches. I mean I'm actually ON THE FLOOR typing this messages while laughing uncontrollably.

It would probably be a decent long weekend rental, but I can't see it having enough depth to be worth owning. Oh well, one less game to buy this fall.
