Are you ready for some football? Madden Demo Released!
It is anticipated every single year by every football fan who owns a game system. Madden NFL 12 is still a couple of weeks from launch, but fans can get their taste early on by playing in last year's NFC Championship between the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears by downloading the demo that dropped this morning, courtesy of EA Sports.
While the brother title NCAA Football 12 broke many records for its launch a few weeks ago, Madden is expected to do just as well, if not better, considering that the pro title is always believed to have a stronger and larger fan base. Going along with this was the news a several days ago that digital downloading is going to be available for this title if you subscribe to the new Season Ticket service that is provided by EA. There is still some debate as to whether this service is truly worth it, considering the piggy backing that is going on between EA and Gamestop, but you can bet there will be fans who want the title that much sooner and will take advantage of it.
