Face Breaker

Hey everyone I'm Todd, lead designer on FaceBreaker. As Tom mentioned we will be starting to post here regularly now that the game is about to be released. We will also be posting and answering your questions here after the game ships and you are all getting your faces broken. For my first blog I'd like to clear up just one thing: the fact that this game was made by the team that made FNR3 is not entirely correct. It’s true, some of the team that worked on that game did come over to FaceBreaker. But a large portion of that team has continued on with the FightNight franchise and are now hard at work on FNR4. I actually played FNR4 last week and it is already looking and playing awesome. For the record, though, I can’t tell you anything more about it than that. So don’t ask. Now listen up: FaceBreaker is in no way meant to replace Fight Night. Other than the fact that everyone in our game wears boxing gloves and fights in a ring, there are really no similarities Read More

I'm not any good at introductions, so I'll just spit it out: my name is Tom Munro, and I'm a designer on FaceBreaker. Myself and the lead designer on the project, Todd Batty, are going to start posting on here with some regularity. We've been drumming up discussion around the 'net, trying to get a feel for what people think of the game. We'd like to do the same here, and so I'm going to start things off with a bit of an open-ended question that I hope you'll respond to. What did you think of the demo? What did you like, what did you dislike, what were you expecting... all of these kinds of things are good to know, and hopefully we can take some of your feedback to our next endeavours. Also, how awesome is the sell-text on Xbox LIVE? I love that description.
