After picking up Madden '07 at midnight, then losing in a Madden tournament, I got home around 1am and played my new game until about 4am. My f'ing dog woke me up at 8:30am and I'm still not fully recovered. I'm guessing fresh air might do the trick but I'm not sure I can make it to the door...
You videogame nerds know what I'm talking about. Tomorrow's the day! Or if you're lucky, tonight's the night! Each year in August, Madden is released for every videogame system on the market. This has turned into an unofficial holiday for guys around the world.
To date, the Madden franchise has sold over 50 million copies. And this might be their biggest year ever. By the end of 2006, EA Sports will have released a copy of Madden for 7 systems (Xbox 360, Playstation 2, Xbox, Playstation 3, Nintendo Wii, Ninendo DS and Sony PSP).
The football season doesn't kick off in September, it kicks off with the release of Madden.
And we'll be at our local Best Buy for a special Midnight Release which will include a Madden tournament where the winner receives a free copy of Madden '07.
Are you ready for some football bitches?!??!
