Get ready for Madden NFL Arcade this Holiday Season
Electronic Arts recently announced an all-new way to experience the Madden NFL franchise with Madden NFL Arcade – a fun, pick-up-and-play, 5-on-5 football game from EA Tiburon. Madden NFL Arcade is pure adrenaline football for both casual and diehard NFL fans, featuring a unique art style that brings your favorite players to life like never before! Madden NFL Arcade will be available as a download on Xbox LIVE Arcade for 1200 Microsoft Points, just in time for the holidays.
“When you look around the office and see your whole team playing and having tons of fun with it, you know the game hit the right mark,” said marketing director Nathan Stewart. “We have diehard Madden fans who have worked on the franchise for a decade, and more casual gamers who are all playing together and enjoying it. If our productivity the past few weeks is any indication, we’ve created a game that everyone will love.”
Choose one of your favorite 32 NFL teams and distinctive home stadium for a battle with the best five players on each side of the ball, and let the excitement begin! Each team is given four downs to march 60 yards to pay dirt – no penalties or field goals allowed here, pal! Get your Madden NFL fix in a completely new way, with fast-paced games where the first team to 30 wins. Want to mix it up? Madden NFL Arcade can be tailored to fit your liking by changing options, such as skill level, points to win, and more; making each game unlike the one before.
Take advantage of 13 unique “Game Changers” to break the game wide open on a single play. Add an entourage of lineman to get the sack, freeze an opposing player, turn off your opponent’s passing icons, and much more. No lead is safe in Madden NFL Arcade. Madden NFL Arcade is the perfect video game for gameday, allowing up to four players to play co-op on a single console. You can also take on the world online in head-to-head matches and track your performance via interactive leaderboards. If you like to commemorate your gridiron success, Madden NFL Arcade will also provide a host of achievements and trophies to boost your gamer score.
Stripped down to the core of football action, Madden NFL Arcade features five players per side, no first downs, no coin flips, no special teams and no penalties for very fast paced action. There are two control methods: arcade which is super-simplified and context-sensitive and standard controls which are closer to traditional Madden-style, allowing you to juke and spin as well as shift your line and pump-fake, just like you can in the real game. Play calling is streamlined down to four basic plays per side, but that only keeps the action flowing faster. Madden NFL Arcade seems like a great diversion to play during half-time on Sundays on the couch with your friends.
Just in time for Thanksgiving (US), Madden NFL Arcade will be available on Xbox LIVE Arcade for 1200 Microsoft Points on November 25th, 2009 and is rated E for Everyone by the ESRB. The game was developed in Orlando, Florida by the EA Tiburon studio, which also produces NCAA® Football, Tiger Woods PGA TOUR® and EA SPORTS MMA.

I'm usualy a sucker for fun sports games, and this looks interesting (kinda like NHL 3 on 3), but I got blitz the league 2, and it might be the only arcade football game I really need.
The fact I'm not an NFL fan might turn me away from this game, but I will definitely try the demo and see how fun it really is :). Looks better than most of the arcade games being released in the past couple months :P

Hell yeah! Now that's a game I'm stoked for.

Madden NFL Arcade delivers an all new 5-on-5 gridiron experience, complete with 13 action-packed Game Changers. Each player will have the chance to receive a Game Changer before every play. They can choose to use their awarded Game Changer immediately or save it for a crucial play. Either way, every Game Changer has the ability to impact a play and change the course of the game.
Freeze a single player on your opponent’s team, confuse the defense by passing 3 footballs instead of 1, or pick up the pace of the play with lightning speed. Game Changers ensure that no 2 plays are the same in Madden NFL Arcade!
Entourage - Bring in the reinforcements as Entourage sends the rest of your lineman into the game to help out for a play.
Triple Threat - Disguise which receiver you’re throwing the ball by sending out two other decoys with the Power Ball game changer.
Bonus Play - Give yourself an additional down to help get in the end zone and earn some much deserved points with Bonus Play.
Make it, Take it - If you’re good enough to score when you trigger Make It, Take It, the ball is yours to keep on the next possession.
Turbo – The Turbo game changer will send players in fast forward by giving them an extra speed burst.
Molasses – Game too fast for you? Use Molasses to take down the action on the field to a less frantic pace.
Fumbilitis – Turn your opponent’s into butter fingers as they’ll have a difficult time holding on to the ball with Fumbilitis.
It’s Alive – Make any pass a scramble for the ball as its Alive will turn any incomplete pass into a live ball.
Frostbite - Put the freeze on one opposing player from moving by using the game changer Frostbite.
Fast Pass - Fast Pass gives the power to a QB to throw the ultimate bulleted pass.
Flying Blind - Sabotage your opponent by using Flying Blind to turn off their passing icons.
Flip Flop – Jealous of your opponents score? Flip Flop will nicely borrow the score and never give it back.
Dud – Hey, they can’t all be winners.
