Well, that's nifty.
I see they came up with their logo for the '92 edition too.
I definitely like the change to Madden, rather then keep John Madden Football.

[Trunks]

wow, Maddan started in 1990....

[EpsilonX]

Haha he looks like that dude from will ferrell movies...he played the one writer that was a tad heavier in elf, and he was the "brother-friend-son" or whatever from semi-pro.

[LiNuX]

i never had madden for sega genesis lol..didnt even know it was there - i had that Joe Montana football game for my genesis lol

it's evolved so much over the years

[Iceskater101]

I like the newer covers I dont like how they had the reporter dude on the front.

[papastiffy]

HAHA omg, i can remember playnig madden on the SNES. I SUCKED AT IT. then again, i was like 3 or somthing... lol.

You act like you've never even heard of John Madden before, lol.

lol...reporter dude...

they had a special on X-play on G4 about the 20 years of madden - i wanted to watch but no one would let me near the tv! lol..meh...

[rukisuto]

I like the very first cover they came out with for the game.
It makes me giggle, lol.

[conman1000]

The madden curse. Awesome to relive it.

FYI: Who ever's on the cover, always seems to have injuries or a horrible year.

[Hawk]

lol at the first one :-P
never knew Madden was that ancient =D.

[diablo]

what system was the first madden out for? sega? it looks like it has gotten better and better lol, they should have kept john madden up there on every corner, see how he changed over the years lol

Commodore 64/Commodore 128, Apple II, Sega Genesis[citation needed]


citation is needed so perhaps it came out on the genesis,

I think 99 or 09 are the best covers. In 99 John Madden looked his best. AND who doesnt love Brett Favre he is probably the best QB that ever played. Hes also my favorite and hes still throwing 6TD's a game now cmon thats Beast

a lot of people actually, your mind will boggle at the hate on Neogaf for Brett

[Jaykub]

At least a panther was there

[jakncoke]

Fitz/Polamalu 2009 cover is wrong, as much as I hate John Madden, this year he should have been on it seeing he retired

[edward78]

Madden is a fat ugly retarded california raisin.
and the most annoying sports commentator EVER.
i hate his games, his plays are a joke. and i'm pretty sure he likes little boys.
nuff said.

Um... you DO know that the "reporter dude" IS John Madden right?!

[12oz12]

[twister]
