Polamalu and Fitzgerald are on Madden NFL 10 Cover

By ArtieFufkin

This year, it's all about the hair

This year, it's all about the hair

Here is the official cover for Madden NFL 10 from EA Sports, featuring Troy Polamalu and Larry Fitzgerald.

I stopped playing Madden after the Sega Genesis days, so I may be a little out of touch here … but based on everything I learned from TV & movies, by now I thought we’d have a full virtual video gaming experience with 2000 yard fields, jet packs and rocket footballs.

The newest version of Madden features something called “Fight for every Yard” technology, which means absolutely nothing to me.  There are way too many buttons on the new controllers, and the whole Wii thing just scares me.  I guess that means I’m old.

Check out more of what the EA press release had to say after the jump …

“Larry Fitzgerald and Troy Polamalu are exemplary examples of the epic battle between offense and defense in the NFL,” said Sr. Product Manager Anthony Stevenson.   “Madden NFL 10 showcases the Fight For Every Yard, and nobody fights harder than Troy and Larry, making them the perfect athletes to grace the cover.”

Utilizing the all-new Pro-Tak animation technology, Madden NFL 10 on the Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION 3, ensures that the Fight for Every Yard doesn’t end until the whistle blows.  This new game changing animation technology delivers steerable tackles, three to nine man gang tackles, as well as the ability to fight for fumbles at the bottom of a pile. In addition, Pro-Tak allows quarterbacks to avoid the oncoming rush to extend a play, or step into the pocket to deliver an in-stride pass.  With Pro-Tak, the authenticity of NFL game days is brought home like never before in Madden NFL 10.

So yeah.  No jet packs.  But I guess this is still cool.  Whatever.

Moral of the story: expect one of these guys to get injured this year.
