    This game after the patch is the best football game out. Everything from the tackling and blocking is spot on. There are many people online that have created the NFL roster and logos so the NFL license is not needed. If your tired of madden or NCAA is game is at least worth a rent.

    This game has over 60 teams. It has a season mode and also Road to Backbreaker. It also has tackle alley the hit iphone game. The only thing that could make this game better is an nfl license. This is a must buy.

    Yes, it may be old but this is one of the more underrated football games. Because it has lot of customization options and the gameplay is the best we never saw.

    The main reason you will enjoy it is because the twin analogue stick controls are as simple as they are rewarding and each tackle is a cacophony of limbs that is extremely visceral. [July 2010 p73]

    Backbreaker is trying to break into a genre that is dominated by a 2,000 pound gorilla and for that alone I applaud them. However they need to do some serious enhancements, maybe even illegal ones, in order to be taken seriously.
