Madden 10 Cover

madden 10 cover 2010

EA continues reinventing the Madden cover. This year’s cover features not one, but two players, in a stylized cover that’s reminiscent of Street Fighter IV. The Cardinals’ wide receiver, Larry Fitzgerald, and the Steelers’ safety, Troy Polamalu, will share the spotlight on EA Sports’ annual NFL game when it goes on sale on August 14th. The two teams should be familiar to anyone who watched last year’s Super Bowl — y’know, people that play Madden. – from Joystiq

Super Bowl combatants Troy Polamalu and Larry Fitzgerald face off helmet-to-helmet for “Madden NFL 10,” the first time in the franchise’s 21-year history that two players adorn the cover. EA Sports’ latest edition of the best-selling sports video game ever, with more than 65 million sold, won’t be on store shelves until Aug. 14, but the announcement of the coverboys always arrives with fanfare — and renews the lore of The Madden Curse. – from Post
