My boys and I play on the XBox 360. Love to have the new version.
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 3:20PM
I’ve been wanting to get a good football game for the Wii for awhile now, and this looks great! Thanks for another giveaway!
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 4:16PM
I play this all the time at my friends houses, it would be great if I got one from y’all. xbox 360
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 4:30PM
I have NCAA 09, but Madden 09 is a much-needed addition to my small library of XBox 360 games.
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 6:12PM
I would love to play this sometime soon on the Xbox 360.
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 6:38PM
would be sweet for my 360 …
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 7:36PM
I was just thinking of picking this up for my PS3!
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 8:54PM
who needs class when you have an xbox360 and madden 09? Sign me up!
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 9:30PM
I would love to get this for my xbox 360!
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 9:45PM
How else can I relive Favre on the GB packers?
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 9:50PM
My wife and I would love to play this on the Wii.
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 10:34PM
I would love to get this game for free on Xbox 360 because after years of not buying a Madden game because of the lackluster reviews, I’m finally interested in playing the newest release. I’m just not interested enough to spend $60 on the game (or $90 if you guys can hook the winners up with the collector’s edition…)
Let me experience if this Madden finally feels like a REAL next gen game!
Oh yeah, and Innerpartysystem are on the soundtrack and I got drunk with those guys. That should be reason enough.
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 10:55PM
I need Madden 09, i’m still playing ‘07. Yeah I really need that.
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 11:44PM
I’m sure I’ve done SOMETHING in the last year to deserve this for my 360. I mean… come on.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 1:56AM
[...] since we’re now completely off-topic, DBB reader Mike Payne wants to give you a copy of Madden NFL 09. I’m curious what Tatum Bell’s fumble rating will be, because the guy has some pretty [...]
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 2:29AM
An extra game to the library is always something I want! Sign me up!
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 4:51AM
I am too poor to buy this awesome game. Literally. For my xbox360. :(
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 5:22AM
its my best firend`s birhtday and i think it would be sweet for his PS3
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 6:37AM
I want this game for the PS3 because the Madden franchise is the G.O.A.T. (Greatest Of All Time)!
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 6:40AM
I’d like a copy due to the fact I’ve been playing Madden since ‘94 when I was 9. It’s been a yearly tradition for. So I’d definitely like one for the XBox 360.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 6:52AM
My second XBOX 360 recently died, so my third is on its way from Microsoft… a free copy of Madden would help ease the pain a bit. Thanks!
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 6:58AM
I haven’t played a football game since EA gained the monopoly on NFL titles. But I am willing to give it a shot again - for my PS3.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 7:00AM
I am fairly sure there is an achievement on 360 for getting a hat trick or 3 “GOOOOAAALLLL”s that I need. Those are football terms right?
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 7:37AM
I have not played the Madden series since the Super Nintendo days… that is back in the day. Now that this is the 20th anniversary, i am wanting to give it another shot to show my respects. Xbox 360 or PS3 will work fine, but preferred the 360 so i can get whooped by some of my boys who play online.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 7:43AM
Well, I would like this copy so I can whoop on my husband just like I did in Madded 08.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 8:10AM
I’d love a copy for my Wii because my internship started yesterday, and working 65 hours a week until June means I won’t have much time to relax, and I can’t think of a better way to spend my 4 hours of free time a week (besides spending time with my wife). Here’s a limerick to sum up my feelings.
I need a new game for my Wii
And I heard I can get one for free
Now my heart would be gladden
If you gave me the Madden
And how happy my wife would be
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 8:29AM
I’d like to win a copy of Madden NFL to prevent the urge of throwing my cat around the living room American football style. Call it therapy if you will.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 8:46AM
I’ve got a lot of friends who play this online and I have not picked it up yet. I don’t have any sports games for my 360 and I think this would be the perfect one to start with.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 8:49AM
Ohhh!!!! I’ve been wanting this for my husband who’s a huge football fan!!!! This would be a perfect gift!!!
Do count me in please!!!
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 8:51AM
Sorry…forgot to enter the console it would be used on
XBox 360
Thanks again…(sorry about having to write another post for this…I’m not trying for another entry, just trying to get my entry right :) )
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 8:58AM
I hear this is great for XBOX360…quality giveaway. kudos.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 10:15AM
I love this website and I love football. Getting madden from you guys for my 360 would be the ultimate combo
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 10:19AM
I need this game for my xbox360 because the only game I currently have for it is The Godfather…which sucks
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 10:21AM
This is why I need Maddon ‘09 (for *free*)on the 360–
Nobody has ever made a better football game than ESPN NFL 2K5 on the original XBox. The game looked better, played better, felt better, and just *was* better than Madden… AND IT WAS $19.99 BRAND NEW! Then what did EA do? They bought themselves a monopoly on the NFL license, hence depriving myself and all fans of quality sports games one of the greatest franchises in sports game history and forcing all football fans to pay $60 for an inferior product just because it’s the only choice we have. So I think it is only fair that I get a copy of the newest Madden for free, if only to make up for EA’s soulless theft of what was previously my autumn tradition.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 10:23AM
Oh yeah, this site is fantastic, especially because Mike Payne posts on the DBB, greatest of all Detroit Pistons Blogs.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 10:25AM
Football is the new pastime… Baseball is still awesome. but a hard hit is just too much much to miss.. and with this I can make my own hard hits.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 10:40AM
With the Yankees out of contention for the post season it is time for football! Being a giants fan since the age of 12, it was a good year to see them stop the pastrytots from a perfect season. Madden is the next logical step for football fans. If I do not get my copy here, I am off to the store without fail.
I have an Xbox 360 ftw.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 11:53AM
I have been meaning to get this game but I never get the chance. I will play it on my Wii
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 12:33PM
How ’bout them Cowboys!! (Xbox360)
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 12:38PM
I’ve got a Nintendo Wii and this could be the only game that is created for adults. All of the other games are geared towards kids and extremely lame adults. I’d love to get a copy of Madden 09 to make my purchase of a Wii seem halfway intelligent.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 12:48PM
I’ve killed my friends in NCAA and now I need to hand them an ass whooping in Madden.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 1:06PM
Football games are my favorite sports games. I want to get my hands on the newest one. :]
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 1:10PM
So I can see the Jaguars finally win their division, even if it is on the 360
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 2:23PM
I would love this game. The PS3 demo was amazing.
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 8:04PM
It’d be my first Madden game…
Thursday, September 4, 2008 10:25AM
Because my PS3 has gotten fat and lazy! It needs a good workout on the road to the Super Bowl. Then it can go free agent and refuse to play Blu-rays next season unless I let it change it’s name to Cientro de Fiesta: Tres.
Thursday, September 4, 2008 1:05PM
I wanna create Bo Jackson and Barry Sanders and see how they fair against today’s defenses. Bo was silly on Tecmo Bowl, I would always run the opposite direction to see if anyone could tackle Bo…TOUCHDOWN BO JACKSON
Friday, September 5, 2008 11:10PM
I want this free copy to play and practice it by myself, that way I can challenge my friends and beat them quick. I have seen the graphics, and gameplay is awesome.with friends.
Saturday, September 6, 2008 10:49AM
I have a ps3 and just one game! I’d love to have two, and this game seems awesome.
Saturday, September 6, 2008 12:54PM
Like everybody else says, this is one of the rare quality PS3 titles…AND yesterday was my birthday!
Saturday, September 6, 2008 6:23PM
Hey, my homeboy LaDell has wanted to play this since it came out. It would be an excellent birthday present for him.
Saturday, September 6, 2008 6:24PM
i’ve been playing this series since ‘05.. would be really awesome to win! thanks gearcrave!
Saturday, September 6, 2008 8:45PM
xBox360! Little brother needs a birthday present haha
Sunday, September 7, 2008 8:19AM
I love football and love Madden. Madden 08 for Wii was sick and I can’t wait to get the new copy of Madden ‘09. It would be most awesome if I could get my hands on the Wii version.
Monday, September 8, 2008 6:32PM
I’d love Madden ‘09 for my Xbox 360 because…
My disc of Madden ‘08 is no longer readable when I place it into the disc tray. About two weeks ago I placed my disc into my Xbox only for it to tell me that the disc cannot be read, i.e. it’s broken! I tried cleaning the disc and even tried playing it on another system, but nothing cured the problem. I’d really love to play the ‘09 edition because I can no longer play last year’s game, a game I love to play.
Monday, September 8, 2008 8:50PM
I’d like to win a free copy because I have really enjoyed playing earlier versions of the game and would like to find out what the new version of the game is all about. Plus, I don’t have too many games for the Xbox 360 I have. This is a great giveaway. Thanks.
Tuesday, September 9, 2008 7:47PM
It’s the best football game that money can buy - and it is perfect to play while listening to underground hip hop….
Wednesday, September 10, 2008 7:35AM
I’d like the XBOX 360 version by the way (already posted why I’d like it above^^)…
Monday, September 22, 2008 6:35PM
Thanks to EA!
Monday, October 6, 2008 12:50AM
My boys in the dorm need something to play on our xbox360 and what’s better than madden?!?
Wednesday, October 15, 2008 4:22PM
its my brothers birthday and i dont have any money, it would be amazing if i could get this for the 360 for him
Friday, October 24, 2008 12:09PM
I am a Quadriplegic and I have 2 boy’s 7 and 10, I cant play sports with them so we play all of our games on my xbox 360, And I would love to play the new Madden with them.
Tuesday, November 11, 2008 10:33PM
I love football and I love madden. It is the best football game ever made.
