GameZone writes: "NFL Blitz was a revolution that shocked the nation, but no one was more stunned – or more frightened – than EA. Blitz was the first of its kind; an arcade-born football game that didn’t need rules and regulations to pull in the masses. It acquired fans that barely followed the sport, and sent a powerful message that Madden wasn’t the only football king on the block."
With Football season upon us, TechRaptors Robert Grosso tackles one of the best alternatives to Madden from last generation, Backbreaker.
Michael, Ray, and the best of the worst for the week of October 14th!
There are many sports franchises that are fantastic editions to the world of gaming, deserving both as an edition to their respective gaming field and to video gaming at large. Other franchises, however, have seen their time. It’s time for these franchises to go the way of the dinosaur before they get even worse than they already are.
Should be dissolved too. The yearly additions are essentially the same except for rosters, schedules, and new stadiums.
I would go as far as to say that most of these games are actually worse than the previous iteration.
when i first saw backbreker i was rooting it on and wanted it to strive. hell i even wanted to buy this game at a time because it seemed to offer something terrific in new in a genre monopalized by madden. unfortunately after the demo i could see that it wasnt what i really wanted. and i agree with the writer,the camera is one of if not the biggest flaw, u cant see anything around the fat players. once i played the demo and heard the reviews my hopes were dashed and i dont even wannna rent this anymore. sucks. cause i really thought this might contend with madden. but i think its a good first shot by the devs of euphoria
There is a pretty steep learning curve but the game is a lot of fun. I just finished a game that ended in a 27-27 tie with the computer. I had a great time.
Though the game has problems and needs some refinement, it's worth the $49.99 price.
i just think if we could change the camera angle it would be better. the animations are nice though
