IGN has the scoop.

I didn't either - I'm somewhat surprised by this news - I doubt I'll print it, but I will have a look at it at least

I heard this from Van Pelt yesterday on ESPN Radio. Surprised me too.

It'd be really cool if they'd update the loading screen and stuff in a patch.

Will the new rosters give the packers an extra draft pick in Dynasty. :-P

I doubt it. The game is celebrating 20 years of Madden, and Favre will be remembered as a Packer throughout most of those years.

I wish that would have been Favre in a Buc uniform! Not sure I can suffer through another year with Garcia.

Who cares about how the cover look .Last year the cover was probaly one of the best lookin covers of all time but the game won't all that . If you ask me I really don't care who appears on the cover as long as it ain't a Vikings player u cant put Ryan Leaf or even mike&mike(cuz u know ea is now affliated with espn) i dont care as long as the gameplay@graphics are up 2 par
