So you’re not a hardcore gamer but would love to play a football game that doesn’t require a degree in statistics (note: I don’t have a degree in statistics but kick ass in Madden)? Well, get ready for Madden NFL Arcade which is set to hit the PlayStation Store and XBox Live sometime in December. It’s quite similar to where-are-they-now Blitz and Street franchises of years past, but offers that Madden-esque feel that we’ve all come to love (even when we shouldn’t). It’s strictly five-on-five football with players given the choice to select long-, medium-, or short-pass plays or runs and basic defensive packages, then going head-to-head in a game that’s more like street basketball than a pro one.

Madden NFL Arcade will be a download-only game that’s due to release sometime in December. Crave had the opportunity go hands-on so we suggest checking the read here for full details. Screenshots after the jump.  (more…)

We’ve seen some pretty lackluster special editions of video games come out, always leaving our stomachs half full. The guys over at Activision and Infinity Ward have done right by us with the Prestige Edition of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, which is set to drop sometime in November. This version of the highly-anticipated game will sit atop the food chain, as it includes fully-functional night vision goggles. No word yet on how the toy will work, but we can’t wait to see.

With the “Collector’s Edition” of MW2 priced at $80 over at GameStop, we’re guessing this toy won’t come cheap. Someone’s already had the honors of doing the official unboxing which you can catch over at Engadget.

The concept behind the Psyclone TouchCharge is a good one. It gives you the ability to put down your PS3, Wii, or XBOX 360 controller on the charging pad and it automatically begins to charge the peripheral. The set comes with a charging pad and a contact charger, which latches on to the controller.

The charging kit for the XBOX 360 is the most expensive at $69.99. The Wii’s set is at a fair $59.99. Unlike the Wii and 360, the PS3 charging kit does not need external rechargable batteries, as it already has them built in. This explains the cheaper $49.99 price tag.

What’s next for Psyclone, a charging kit for our precious iPhones? The possibilities are endless.
