I don't hate it but geez it's something they took 5 mins to make.

No commentary at all is a killer in an arcade game. Surely a couple one liner for TD's, big hits, even the start of game?

Played for an hour, probably saw everything and got everything possible out of it and will never go back it was that repetitve and boring.

Thank you, that's all I needed to hear. Pretty much confirmed what I was thinking anyway.

Re: Madden NFL Arcade Available For PS3 Now, Post Your Impressions Here

never was a fan of EA BIG sports. i just could never get into NBA Street or the other arcade like football game EA made. I won't be checking this out. besides i already have a football game.

I was curious what the sales strategy was going to be. a $15 download seems about right for this.

I downloaded the trial version and played few times. It was different and fun. My only complaint would be that there is no play selection screen, you get what they give you, run, pass short, medium and deep. If there were some type of single player season mode I would buy it. Without that I think I'll pass. I've got MX vs ATV Reflex in my sights for my MX racing fix next week so I'll need that $15.00 toward that purchase.

Does anyone know if they plan to add any type of season play in the future?

I downloaded the game and played it this morning. If you were a fan of the old NFL Street series back on the PS2 and Xbox, I think you will enjoy it. It's something you won't spend hours and hours playing but if you are in the mood for a quick football game, this will do. It is what it is, an acrade game. It dosn't try to be anything more than that.

I was thinking about getting this but 15 FRIGGIN DOLLARS? ARE YOU JOKING?

That's what I said. It's too much for a game that's using an existing engine. I think they would have been better served to offer it at around $5 the first release to help garner interest and then raise the price as the game added features. I wish they'd make a techmo styled 2D'er. I'd pay $10 for it without hesitation.

It sucks how 360/PS3 owners are getting charged $15 for a feature that came standard in the Wii version of the game.

Are you sure about that? There's an arcade mode in the Wii version? I was thinking of getting it on the Wii just to see what it was liked. Personally I dug the design they did for the Wii. Fit the console perfectly.

If someone could verify the arcade version in the Wii game for me I'd appreciate it.

So do the graphics look like Madden 2010 or is it the NFL Street cartooney style graphics?

Online is deinetely fun but offline unless you have friends it just exhibition games which will get boring after a while. I agree with whoever posted about the lack of commnetary. I was surpised there wasn't any. the one game changer I was worried about was the one where you can reverse scores with the other team. So far in about 5 games I haven't seen it yet which I was happy about. Also, you can chose to play without the game changers also. I think Ranked games have them on but if you set up a game I think you can change it.

If anyone else has this and wants to play online you can add me on the psn. User name is eziof. I stink at the moment. Hopefully I will get better

P.S. Does anyone know if they rosters actually changed? I know I was prompted when I went online but I really to look to see if anything changed.

I like that idea! You just pick the plan and they give you a play to run. If the moves and powerups were cool and balanced I'd see it being fun. Defensive power-ups would be cool... the strategy on D has to change given that you have a longer goal to scoring.

I posted a link earlier in this thread. "Arcade Mode" is included in the normal version of Madden 10 for the Wii.

Probably on the 360 since they have demos and the PS3 doesn't have one for this those bozos.
