This year Madden fans are waiting for the Twentieth Anniversary Edition. It’s hard to believe the franchise started back in 1989. Today EA announced news about Madden NFL 09 first item was that Brett Favre would be on the cover. It was also announced gamers can expect 80+ new features one of the biggest is the new broadcast presentation by Cris Collinsworth and Tom Hammond which means the EA radio network is a thing of the past.

It also seems EA listened to the fans of the series with a ton of new enhanced graphics and online league with complete stat tracking. Another new addition is the virtual training tutorial that sounds very cool. It’s too early to tell but I remember when Peter Moore President of EA Sports said last year “If gamers think Madden 08 looks great wait until next year” I guess this August we will see what else the team has added to the game.
