You do have to pre-oder to get the Gamestop exclusive demo which features 5min quarters and the Steelers and Cardinals. The other demo that you can download from PSN or Live features the Giants (da Geeeeeeeee-Men lol) and the Cowboys in 2min quarters.

I pre-ordered at gamestop, but I will also download the Giants' demo as well. That's right I said Giants' demo lol! Want to get as good an idea about the game as possible before I plunk down 60.

This was passed on from the Senior Producer of Madden. It is 1 Min quarters not 2.

A couple of updates for this thread.

1) I'm asking around internally to get an update on the code situation. I should be able to find out tomorrow when the codes are supposed to go out. Whenever GS decides to actually execute is a different story...

2) The demo on 7/30 (the non-GS version) is actually 1 minute quarters. Not exactly sure where the 2 minute thing came from but wanted to clarify either way.

Hope you all enjoy the game.

Just called the GS where i reserved madden 10. I asked if they got the codes yet, but the clerk I talked to had no idea what i was talking about. pretty strange.

So much for rewarding those who preorder directly from eastore.com, you know, giving you the full profit...

Very few companies even sell direct anymore, its too much of a hassle. This applies to everything, not just video games.

doesn't really apply to this. They could easily give out the same code/demo to people who preorder through them.

I just called my local GS, worried that I might not get a code and planning to get there tomorrow morning, but the guys said hes pretty sure its an e-mail and I shouldn't worry about it.

# 169 countryboy @ 07/14/09 10:27 PM

All the Gamestops in my area have said that they aren't getting the codes until the 23rd.

# 170 Texans989 @ 07/14/09 10:36 PM

i dont get how it works tho, cuz couldnt somebody else just give me a code?

# 171 countryboy @ 07/14/09 10:37 PM

they could, but you can only use a code once.

How do you know it can only be used once?

You'd have to assume that like all DLC on the Marketplace, that you redeem each code is unique.

# 174 Texans989 @ 07/14/09 11:17 PM

well ill be disappointed if i dont get my code tomorrow via email cuz i preordered online. cuz the stuff with the gamestop employees not even knowing there is a demo sounds fishy

damn that's weak...well, i'll be sure to call mine up tomorrow afternoon if i don't get it via email sometime in the morning. i don't mind stopping by there if i have to either.

# 176 JB0B0 @ 07/15/09 12:31 AM

just got off the phone with my local gamestop. they said the codes will be available on the 23rd, so you go get the code, bring it home, and you can play it right away.

# 177 bjadams22 @ 07/15/09 12:40 AM

Get your demos as soon as you can....Pastapadre came down with news tonight that you are not guaranteed the demo. There are limited amount of codes being handed out.

Also, does anyone know if you can show gamestop a recite (don't remember how to spell it) of your pre-order even though you didn't pre-order there? If you can I'm going to just try there instead. Hopefully I can get it.

Just give them your email if you have one.

There's a "p" in there somewhere, I think.

# 180 Scott @ 07/15/09 02:36 AM

I'll be calling my gamestop tomorrow and getting mine.
