NFL video game unveiled in Madden - Mississippi
It's only fair to say that alongside football of the world variety, I am also totally in love with football of the American variety (I guess it's just called plain old football if you are in the US :) but I guess "Gridiron" is the universal term.
Combine this with my love of XBox 360 then you will understand why I just had to post this. Last week, Microsoft and Electronic Arts teamed up to create "Madden NFL Day" where each resident of Madden, MS, a 74-household hamlet received an XBox 360 including one personally delivered by the legend that is Jerry Rice! Bizarrely, there's no mention as to whether or not they had to buy their own copy of the game!!!
And this years cover star...Shaun Alexander, running back with the Seattle Seahawks. Be interesting to see how his season pans out after this!
