The Euphoria-powered football game, Backbreaker, shows off team customization tools in its latest trailer. Sure, you could use the robust editing suite to manufacture a pretty sweet team logo and end zone design ... but we know most people won't.
When it launches on June 1st, could you at least promise us to keep your creations clean and devoid of objectionable genitalia for, like, the first day? How about you be a bit more mature and go with something like the Sioux City Slammers or, dare we suggest, the Jasper Joystiqs? No no, not the Joy Sticks. What is wrong with you people?

Are you from around the Sioux City area or is that some quote I am not aware of. Just wondering since I live pretty close to there.

I'm just randomly pulling things out of my ass, dude. I just thought it was funny, since David tried to come up with names that didn't sound dirty, yet he came up with one that had the most innuendo added to it, at least I thought so.

Screw that. It's all about the New York Excessively Tall People, or the Baltimore Edgar Allen Poe Reference ;)

I'm partial to the Peach State Peregrines, or the National City Turbochargers. Maybe even the Grand Rapids Barbary.

I hear the Capital City Indigenous People have a pretty intense rivalry with the Fort Worth Cattle Herders.

This game is going to be so refreshing compared to Madden... however, if they want anyone to buy it, it should start out cheaper than Madden (50 bux ?)

Really nice customisation tool, isn't there a similar football (soccer) game coming out, hopefully that has the same tools.

Can't wait to put Donald Duck riding on a penis horse into Cowboy Town on my helmet.

Seems like an amazing opportunity to create an import function like NCAA so that you could import NFL logos and rosters.

Yep. There is definitely going to be a lot of that.

Too bad you'll be able to create all the NFL teams, but only the people on your friends list will be able to see your custom team! Makes this game a pass for me, that and the poor camera angle.

Reminds me strongly of Forza's decal editor. I can't wait to see what people come up with.

/me waits for lawyer feeding frenzy as Backbreaker players begin recreating and then "publicly distributing" trademarked images of all kinds.
Can't wait to see the X-men play the Power Rangers.
