There is a video somewhere of the head of natural motion or something like that.. He clearly says this game isn't meant to and won't beat Madden. This game will be a showcase of what Natural Motion can do...Truthfully they want to get the game as far as graphics and annimations/gameplay to be perfect so they can sell their brand... I highly doubt this will be a sim by any stretch

After seeing what NCAA 10 did with Teambuilder, and what you can do with a game like Forza or NASCAR, I see no reason why you can't have this for Backbreaker. I mean, I had the Boston Red Sox playing college football.

I agree though that this game is being made primarily to promote Natural Motion, and that's not a bad thing. I still say they should have showcased the tech in a boxing game.

Football and Hockey work almost as well as boxing / MMA to show off this kind of tech though. Like you say, there are games already out there that have good enough customization for what people would want, so there's no reason not to do it.

I agree but with football/hockey, you have multiple players. I was thinking start small with two guys in a ring, showing off the tech.

In some ways though boxing limits what you can show, since there aren't a huge variety of different actions. MMA is slightly better, but team sports have the largest variety of interactions that can really show stuff off.

I think they chose football because they are going for the big splash. Which is refreshing after watching EA add and lose features while taking no risks with actual gameplay. I don't blame them, being EA, because they have a moneymaker on their hands so why mess with it. But I would love to see somebody push the envelope and give us a glimpse of what is possible with next gen.
