Sweet cover, now let's see some gameplay videos.

Cover looks good but the gameplay still to me looks like blitz still to me. And the models sizes look all the same aswell. Might be a nice game to play. But until is gets a nfl rights. BB will just be like all the other footballs games before it. Jst a secondary game to madden and well not last long.

People who keep throwing out "Blitz" and keep saying the players all look the same have not kept up with this game over the past 6 months. Its already been stated the game will have two modes(not difficulties, but just modes) Arcade and Sim. If you used common sense, which lacks on the internet in general, you would assume Sim is short for Simulation. I'm not saying the game will be 100% sim, but they apparently were trying for sim somewhere.

Also, the game only looks like Blitz because all we have seen is teaser trailers. These trailers are supposed to get us pumped for the game. Watching a play unfold and seeing a normal wrap up tackle is nice, but does it belong in a teaser trailer? When you watch a Nike commercial or Under Armour commercial do you see big hard hits or little wrap up tackles? You see big hits the majority of the time.

Before you write this game off as another Blitz, take the time to read up on some info about the game and actually wait for some real gameplay videos to surface. As of now, all we have seen is some pictures and some hype clips.

Great post. Just because the game isn't licensed doesn't mean it's a blitz type of game. Look at the PES series for example. At one time most of the teams in the game weren't licensed, and yet it was the most accurate simulation on the market. Not saying that this game will be completely like that, but for the very fact that no two plays will be the same really gets some "sim" points in my book.

If this game is Blitz, then what does that make Madden?

Jerry Glanville's Pigskin Footbrawl, perhaps?
