But......do they like Crocs?
But......do they like Crocs?
The patch is now out for PS3, "soon" for 360.
Uhm ... no. I'm not comparing this to EA. I'm just looking at the list of things being patched, and thinking about any other game out there. That amount of stuff is nearly on par with a sequel, and certainly is eyebrow-raising for a 2 month development cycle. Especially given how many of those things weren't there or were broken after 3 years.Originally Posted by jaymo76
Now, it's possible this was almost 'by design', and NM was working on many of these features before final delivery, but they just didn't ship. That's possible. Unlikely, but possible.
Two month turn around on all of this is insane. The Rule Fixes in particular are the ones I'm hesitant to jump on.

Yeah if they only have a six man team like what was stated or claimed, all of these things are definitely not a result of community wishes over two months.
Maybe the Backbreaker team spent the past two months perfecting time travel so they could travel to a point in the future where they had implemented all those fixes, and then brought the resulting code back to August, 2010. Hey, it could happen, right?
This quote from Tommy Boy sums it up.
"Here's the way I see it, Ted. Guy puts a fancy guarantee on a box 'cause he wants you to feel all warm and toasty inside. Because they know all they solda ya was a guaranteed piece of shit. That's all it is, isn't it? Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I got spare time."
That quote actually sounds a lot more like EA's NCAA Football to me.
Of course there's no patch in the world that could have solved all the issues BB had. NCAA, either. Apparently developing a football game is the a lot harder than I think.
At least every iteration of NCAA Football I've gotten some enjoyment out ofThat quote actually sounds a lot more like EA's NCAA Football to me.

I got some enjoyment out of BB - my platinum.
But you were walking funny for a few days after right?I got some enjoyment out of BB - my platinum.
Has anyone actually played this post-patch?
Maybe a couple hundred people
How is that possible?!?!?! This is the game that was nearly half a decade in the making and was going to revolutionise football gaming!!!1!!1 The one that was going to end EA's run!!!1!!1!Maybe a couple hundred people
Yeah 30k and 40k on PS3 and 360 respectively will end a run of 2.54M and 2.01M respectively for Madden 10.How is that possible?!?!?! This is the game that was nearly half a decade in the making and was going to revolutionise football gaming!!!1!!1 The one that was going to end EA's run!!!1!!1!
There hasn't been a revolutionary football game since about 2002. Sports games in general for the most part have been dull as hell since PS3/360 came out.
Coincidence? The week Madden comes out Target has clearanced out their two remaining copies of Backbreaker for $20.
Fixed. They probably started with 2 copies.
Shouldn't this be in the Gaming Deals thread...wait, my bad, that thread is for good values.
Only if they cut it to $10.
It's not worth $10.
And sure enough on August 17th, I walk into Target and am able to get a copy for myself and CDJ for $9.98 each (they had only two copies left). This game came out June 1st
