Catch Your Opponent Off-Guard with
Game Changers featured in Madden NFL Arcade
Game Changers featured in Madden NFL Arcade
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.

Madden has always mirrored the NFL. In this week's tip, we look at what the Philadelphia Eagles have to take into account if they want to be successful passing the ball. This logic goes hand-in-hand with the Madden football series. Bottom line, fast receivers are only a threat when they have space to use their speed. To overcome physical corners as well as inexperience, we hit practice mode to demonstrate how the Eagles in the NFL, as well as teams with undersized receivers in Madden, get open space for their playmakers to create big plays.

NCAA Football 10 was a disappointment. While new additions like Team Builder and Season Showdown initially impressed gamers, faulty gameplay mechanics coupled with a lack of collegiate presentation and atmosphere, ultimately doomed the game in many consumers' eyes (myself included). So as college football gears up for its final month before the beginning of bowl season, I thought it would be a good time to look at some things I want to see included in NCAA Football 11. As a start, I will be outlining the five most important changes that the series needs to make if it is to ever going to become as relevant as it once was on the Playstation 2 and Xbox gaming consoles.

Operation Sports: First off, the question everyone is wondering, is this game related to the old Front Page Sports Football series?
Régis Robin: It is related in terms of the name and "core values". We are fans of the series and so we aimed to create a game which focused on strategy and management instead of requiring proficiency with a gamepad. When looking for a name, we discovered that the original Dynamix trademark had expired and so "Front Page Sports Football" was reborn.
