New Backbreaker Gameplay Videos
Coming out of the Game Developer's Conference is the first directly captured gameplay footage of Backbreaker by independent outlets.

NFL Offseason Transactions in Madden Screenshots – Set #1
As I did last year I will be tracking the movement in NFL free agency and any trades that are made and posting screenshots of the players in their new uniforms using Madden 10. The first complete day of free agency saw a handful of big names sign and a few trades completed. The Bears and Lions have been the two most active teams but the Dolphins, Ravens, Falcons, Giants and Jets have acquired new players as well. The Cardinals take the biggest hit having lost four of the best players since the...
