Why do so many of you just say it's because the reviewer sucks at the game? Maybe the game is so unenjoyable that he doesn't want to put in the time to learn how to play it. Why take it so personally? Does it change the enjoyment level you get when you play BB? Nope. It's like saying someone sucks at playing the guitar but said person has no desire to ever learn how to play the guitar because they don't like it. The fact that this thread has become so long and has so many nonsensical responses FROM BOTH SIDES makes me sad to be a football gamer.

Edit: 5 out of 10 game is still just a 5 out of 10 game regardless of the awesome physics and tackle animations. Also, what may or may not be fixed via patch or future releases of BB also should not change the 5/10 score AT ALL.

I agree with the review. I like football a lot, but I couldn't bring myself to buy this game. Hopefully they sell enough copies to bring about a sequel. The fact that the engine has massive potential doesn't mean I'll buy the game if it isn't actually very fun for me to play.

Who said anything about changing our enjoyment? It's a bad review. It's like someone playing Gran Turismo 4 and not being able to pass all of the license tests, so they give the game a bad review and complain about not being able win any races, while also failing to mention the number of cars available or the fact that the game had no car damage.

Except you forgot the minor details that GT4 is a critically acclaimed game which works very well as a driving simulation.

In a sense, this game is Rainbox Six: Vegas and the other game is Halo 3 in god view. These are just really two very different games. Changing the view in BB would completely change the category/genre of the game. It would then just be Madden with great physics and less plays. Right now every position has it's advantages and disadvantages of play because of this viewpoint. I wonder if any of the OS guys who have a grip on the the gameplay of BB can maybe upload a complete game on OS and YouTube so that maybe the others can see what they are doing wrong. Or maybe just a half game. Also before someone chimes in with another it's an OPIONION theory, do you use that that to make yourself feel better about a BAD CHOICE? I'm just asking. I don't think I understand the point of those comments. Just sounds like you're saying opinions can't be wrong or something. Peace out.

I understand where you are coming from in this post, but I think comparatively speaking, Halo 3 and R6V2 are much closer quality wise.

I think Backbreaker is being confused as trying to be a SIM game which it is not, it is an Arcade game... a good Arcade game though
