About Me
You name it, I play it. The only console I don't have is the PS3 and that is by choice. I am proud to still have an Atari 2600 that works! I recently added a Nintendo 64 and Atari 5200 to my collection of classic systems!

I have been a hard core gamer every since I could cross the street to my local Sears to play "Sinbad" pinball. I have had a home gaming console since the original Pong and haven't stopped gaming. I've been lucky to attend 7 E3s, write reviews for several webzines, and have been published numerous times in print regarding education and gaming. If you haven't figured it out, I am a teacher :-)

Madden 09s with Favre/Jets covers at Blockbusters
teach4food | 2:45 PM on 08.15.2008 3 comments



I just cruised by my local Blockbuster and I noticed the Madden 09 covers had Favre. The
employees told me that they were delivered with the new cover (not replacement printouts)
and that they were told they were the only show in town to have them.



The question is, why doesn't every Madden 09 have the correct cover? They obviously were
able to provide them to Blockbuster, why not everyone? Will future Madden 09 shipments
have the correct cover or is Blockbuster the only store getting the Favre Jets covers? By the
way, the Madden Wii still have Favre in a Green Bay uniform.

And, as an added bonus, Blockbuster is giving a Summer Gaming bag with goodies to anyone
who purchases a game at $49.99 or higher. Goodie bag pictured below. Pretty much, if you
are over ten, this bag is pretty useless. Though the Super Star Champ temporary tattoo is
pretty hawt.

Probably because when Favre decided to come out retirement, they had already had the box art and all promotional materials printed out, it would have cost an assload to recall all that stuff back.

I do think its funny that they esentially photoshopped his new uniform on top of his old one though.
