So at the end of the day, Backbreaker is still broken.

Having read all the reviews, and heard all of the hype, it seems that Backbreaker's decision to hold of going public was what we all expected: covering for a broken game.

To even make this thing NOMINALLY work, they can't even allow anyone on the sidelines. The player detail is minimal, but at least smooth.

I think dynamic physics is a PS4 tech. I just don't see a complete game that can do this on these systems. Backbreaker will come out, and it will disappoint. But...they have set the bar for the next generation of consoles. Now that we know that it can be done, it will be the goal of every sports title to have this on next-next gen.

The key here is no matter what a game is or isn't...somebody is going to be disappointed and "scream" all across message boards claiming to represent the "true" fans.

I heard of this one game called Grand Theft Auto IV, and I recall them saying something about using this system across both the PS3 and 360 in a real time environment.

Of course, they also were in like a four or five year development cycle. I can't quite remember which...

GTA uses it for one or two people at a time, and it's VERY rudimentary compared to football physics. Apples and oranges.

I think it is a little too early to be calling this game broke.

This post screams irony. But it is right, we need more info first.

Thanks, but I'll wait til the game actually released and in MY Hands before deciding if it's broken.

I didn't say it will be broken at release. I said it's status as of RIGHT NOW is: BROKEN. It does not work. Period. Every review comes to this same conclusion.

This game will not be out for at least another year. And even then it will be a stripped down version of a football game with very little in the way of features.
