Breakaway was a lot of fun to watch at Championship or at events with multiple elite teams. But a vast majority of the time, it was painfully boring and had more 0-0 ties than just about any game I can remember (and I remember 2007). It was painfully boring in qualification matches and even during the eliminations at many regionals. While every game improves dramatically when the level of competition is increased, that curve was way too steep in Breakaway.

Also, how many people on the forums now actually experienced some of the older games, personally I know the games going back to 2000, but how many of the forum users now can go back to pre-3v3 games?

Add a further break for the pre-alliance era (1998 and before) as well. Possibly even another split for the much smaller scale robots of 1992 and 1993.
