Madden 2010 is almost here!!! (and so is football!!!)

Are you ready for football and Madden 2010??? The demo is suppose to be out this Thursday on both Xbox Live and the PlayStation store according to the official Madden site, the game hits stores on August 14th.

In the demo you play in snow (yeah!!!, actually I got tired of snow so that's why I live in the sunshine state now) - as either the Cowboys or the Giants for one full quarter.

So what's new this year in Madden 2010???

- Online franchise mode including live drafts, player transactions, league message boards - which you can not only control from your console, but also remotely through a web browser or from your iPod Touch or iPhone from an app that you can download at the app store.

-Online Co-Op play - this sounds really cool. For the first time you can play on the same team as your friends online. In the past, you could only play against each other online.

-2 athletes on the cover - yup watch out for the Madden curse, for the first time- the cover art will have 2 athletes, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald and Pittsburgh Steelers safety Troy Polamalu. So does this mean they both need to worry???

EA also says expect smoother animations, better graphics and details, and one of the biggest changes is presentation (which means the game will look a lot more like it does on your tv.) plus new stadiums - including the new home of Dallas Cowboys (even though I'm not a Cowboys fan) and like I said at the beginning of this post, since Madden is back so is Football, and it's about time - seemed like a long off-season.
