I see the flip-flop gamebreaker often but it's almost always against me because I'm always blowing out my opponent. It seems like this gamebreaker punishes the good players in favor of the bad ones. Is it my fault that I'm good and leading by tons of points? Should I not score too quickly? What the heck am I supposed to do to avoid flip-flop from forcing me to lose a game? Sometimes it seems that the game wants you to lose by giving them flip-flop, then when you're suddenly forced to play from behind, the game decides to also give your opponent back-to-back defensive entourages, then fumbilitis, and then on 4th and long, they also get "it's alive", which makes passing impossible. Then they get the ball back and they get three 1+ downs. It seems one sided sometimes and in the example above, a loss is inevitable. These inconsistent, unfair balance of gamebreakers makes this game impossible to enjoy. In fact, if anything, it makes it all easier to give this game up. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this game and save yourself $15. Flip-Flop gamebreaker needs to be removed.

This leads me to believe that it truly is rare and may only pop up at the most luckiest of situations." Are you kidding me? I see it at least 3 times every 10 games that I play. You have to play ONLINE to see it and it's worse because you have stats. I can honestly say that 10 of my losses are really WINS that were stolen from me. If they must keep this really cheap gamebreaker, at least they should have a separate stat column to show how many games you lost due to flip-flop. When you're leading 28-6, and your opponent is gifted with a flip-flop gamebreaker, you're pretty much doomed! All that work putting up the points gone down the drain. You're now being asked to score at least 3 more TDs + 2pt conversions and stop your opponent on their next 3-4 drives, too -- a ridiculous and yet UNNECESSARY task. The more games you win online, the more often it seems to happen AGAINST you, especially when you have a huge lead. I've smashed my controller many times because of this; why should I do double the work to get a win? It just isn't fair. “I can say that after playing roughly twenty or so games, I have not seen that Game Breaker one time.

I just may have to pick this up. Just not sure if I actually have the time to play it. Nice review Dave… I just may have to pick this up. Just not sure if I actually have the time to play it.
