Madden Arcade Power-Ups
With the debut of Madden Arcade next week (Tues for PS3 and Wed for 360) EA Sports is releasing some final details on the game. The latest are the descriptions of all the power-ups which are being called "Game Changers". Teams have the opportunity of being awarded one before every play and can choose to use it right then or save it for later. There are some new screenshots in the gallery showing off a few of them in action.
As I speculated when the full rosters for the game were released ...
Madden Arcade Rosters
As mentioned a while back when the rosters for Madden Arcade were being put together they are limited and consist of just 10 players. Each team has a QB, HB, WR, TE or 2nd WR, and OL on offense and the defense gets one DL, LB, S, and two CBs.
The rosters released by EA also include lists of "Entourages" which are additional offensive and defensive lineman. It is currently unknown what these represent. It could be they are used in a separate game mode or maybe they are involved as one of t...

Backbreaker Reappears For Preorder
In my preview of Backbreaker from E3 I noted overriding sense I got that the game was far from release and would likely not come this calendar year. Following E3 there have been no developments to make me believe otherwise. Now comes even more evidence of the game shifting into 2010.
Gamestop has added Backbreaker into the system with a release date of Tuesday April 6th 2010. This does not necessarily look to be a placeholder as they generally use the 1st of a month in those cases. Of cou...
Quick Hit Football Overview
Over the past couple of months I've been following the development of Quick Hit Football. This is a completely free PC game played within the browser. It is a management/coaching sim rather than a game you actively play and through performance can earn points to be spent on improving the players.
Most interestingly of the early news on the game is that the rosters are not completely generic. Due to a loophole in the NFL exclusive license contract, Quick Hit has been able to sign a handful...
