Feeling that Duke Nuke Em Forever vibe all the way.

Yeah, so was I.

Those videos look absolutely amazing! I really hope this comes out soon.

As for the pimping of games, this is what people call HYPE! That is what makes a game launch successful - HYPE. The game can be well developed and polished, but not do extremely well sales wise without what???? You got it.... HYPE!

Some of us are excited about the possibility of a non-madden game.... Let me re-phrase that - Some of us are excited for a GOOD football game release!!!! (I haven't played Madden 10, so I am not bashing that product, but all other next gen madden releases were not to my liking.)

Will this be it? Maybe, maybe not. I for one am excited to see it, and will likely support with a release day purchase just for the effort.

We're more likely to have someone find a real,live Bigfoot before this game sees the light of day.

At this point, all it is is hype.

People are so excited about a game theyve never actually seen real gameplay for or even have any real details about.

So, to be honest, I wouldnt even call it HYPE. Id call it an illusion...one that may never even become a reality.

I think we are to the point of splitting hairs really. Hype, excitement, illusion, it is what it is. Seeing videos definitely gets me excited about a game. Yes, details are good and would probably build momentum prior to release.

I am not at the point that I would buy it without further details/demos whatever, but if we didn't get excited by videos and what not, none of us would be on a forum talking about video games rather than playing them, and you can't deny that!

I think i've given up on an 09 release. The feel from twitter (from the devs) is that the game is entering pre-alpha soon. Of course they will have to test it for a few months, release some gameplay videos fix any bugs the testers find etc. Maybe a Christmas or first quarter 2010 release? looks like

lol they aren't even in alpha and they've been working on this game forever. It's not like they have to learn an engine or something, they created the engine. The game isn't coming out.

i mean , the engine they made is how humans interact and run. which they converted to making into a football game. that would probably take some time

i know you hate backbreaker but it will be released. they didnt waste two years.
