Backbreaker Review [GK]

Over at Game Kudos, Ruser Saldana writes his thoughts on 505's latest sports title, Backbreaker:

4 Sports Game Franchises That Should Be Dissolved

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.
