Madden NFL Arcade Game Changers Video

EA just released a new video for Madden NFL Arcade that outlines the “game changers” built into the game. Check it out and skim through the list which I’ve broken down for you below.

Entourage
Allows you to load up on linemen for an unfair advantage over your opponent. Offensive Entourage puts wall of blockers out in front of you turning a run play into a walk in the park. Defensive Entourage gives is Madden Arcade’s version of stacking the box as it sends the a wave of unblockable defenders your opponents way.

Molasses
Turns gameplay into a slow motion wonderland. If David Carr had this available to him his first few years in the NFL he may have had a fighting chance to stay upright.

Hard to Catch
Turn pass happy offenses into rumblin’ bumblin’ stumblin’ fools. This features forces incomplete passes to become live ball fumbles.

Bonus Play
Gives you an extra down to run out the clock or score the game winning TD. I know at least one coach that would have welcomed this feature into the NFL last week. Oddly enough, the example in the video utilizes the New England Patriots. The irony.

Flying Blind
Lets you turn off the icons over the heads of your opponent’s receivers giving you a slightly better chance for an interception on an errant throw.

and now for my favorite…

Flip Flop
This game changer takes it to a level of it’s own as it actually lets you steal your opponents score and replace it with yours. If ever there was a way to teach someone who likes to tack on the TD’s in a blow out — this is it. I’m guessing you have to save this until the last few seconds of the game and catch your opponent off guard right as the clock is about to run out so they don’t reverse it on you with a flop of their own. Winner winner chicken dinner.
