Madden 2006?

piggyman18 · 01-23-2005, 08:03 PM

My friend and I were having a conversation about some of the better players in the NFL this year. We started talking about the different people on the cover of Madden over the years and the thought came up about how they decide who goes on it each year. So what decides it? Also, who will be on the cover in 2006?

i think Tom Brady will be on the cover this year, espically if they win another super bowl.

As for who decides it, im not sure. I guess Madden would?

I heard that there won't be a Madden 2006 now that EA Sports bought some NFL liscnese agreement which mean no competition. They will totaly re-vamp the game for 2007, i heard.

i think that terrel owens will be on the cover. a lot of players believe in the Madden curse, and thats why tom brady wont do it, because he know that he will win the super bowl next year. Terrel Owens will because hes a cocky piece of crap, and he wants the publicity

Madden is the only series to guarantee a game through 2010, so there will be a Madden 2006. And I already know who will be on the cover.

It all depends on what they decide to focus on. In Madden 2004, they focused on Playmaker, so they got the biggest playmaker, Mike Vick, to be on the cover. Last year, it was all about Defense and the Hit Stick, so they got the most punishing hitter in the league, Ray Lewis, to be on the cover.

Brian westbrook should be on it or Mcnabb. TO can't be on a EA sports game cover, it was part of the deal when he was on espn, that he could not be on their rivals cover, ever.

once there's no game for him to be on, who cares? fuck espn they got owned by madden. yes if you haven't heard, madden is the only football game for a long while (somebody said 2010) to have real players, teams, stadiums etc. etc. that's why there will only be one true game, however i still think espn will make fake stuff.

Madden bought ESPN, so they can't come out with a game...

I should say EA Sports, since supposedly Madden's not coming back.

We should all expect one really sweet football game.

Damn, I can't wait until the new Madden comes out. I'm a Madden fanatic (I've already played 11 seasons in Madden 2004 on the hardest setting with all of the AI turned up). I think Manning is going to be the next cover, just because of the season he had. I hope they fix the punt return coverage and definitely keep the "hit stick"...damn that is awesome.

Or David Akers. He's a fucking robot.

And I also think that Manning will probably be on the cover for his record.

I hope it's the Browns Management Team.

TheDawgPound72 · 01-24-2005, 12:07 AM

This year's theme should be "Special Teams Wins Championships", and they should put Larry Izzo on the cover...

Actually, in that case, they would but Vinatieri on it...

*realizes joke actually wasn't that bad of an idea*
