Electronic Arts has announced a new addition to the Madden NFL videogame franchise. This one's not the yearly iteration however. Instead, it's an arcade-style 5-on-5 football title called Madden NFL Arcade.

  

The game lets players choose from 32 NFL teams with 5 of their best players each. You get four chances to advance the ball 60 yards. No penalties, no field goals -- you just have to bulldoze your way to the end zone and be the first team to reach 30 points.

Madden NFL Arcade will be available on the Xbox Live Marketplace and PlayStation Store for 1,200 MS Points and US$ 14.99, respectively. The kick off commences this December.

5 on 5 meaning what? AI or human? Online connectivity? This sounds like a cool idea, but I think I will only buy it if it allows you to team up with four other people online and take on five others.

I've got this and it's great, 5v5 the plays are simple run, pass short, pass medium, pass deep, it picks a different route every time on it's own. It kind of reminds me of blitz, but without the crazy hits ect. It's fun to play.
