Check out the preview for Madden 2009

According to EA Sports, the upcoming edition of the smash football computer game, Madden 2009, will mark the 20th anniversary of Madden Football. The game was first published in 1998 under the name, John Madden Football and only featured six players on each side due to the limitations of graphics and technology at the time.

That’s just insane. Twenty years? How old am I?

This new edition of the game should be pretty awesome. It features Brett Favre on the cover, the first time a retired (or so we think) players has appeared there. It will also be the first version to offer full online competition between 32 players in a complete NFL season.

That’s pretty sick. There will also be some feature called Madden IQ, which automatically adjusts to your skill level as it learns how you play.

I’d be very afraid to see how low mine would go.
