Always looking on the positive side....however what about shipping and handling and taxes?

But they way gas prices are, it may cost you just about as much in gas to get to the store than it would be to ship.

You didn't think that exclusive NFL license would come cheaply, did you?

I get that it's funny that the price is listed at $809.05, but for all of the folks here who followed the NCAA release clusterfuck, you do know the significance of that particular price, right?

It comes with a voucher that allows you to kick T.O. square in the nuts in person. I bought two!

:D

They must've changed it. Pumpy, what is the backstory behind the $809 charge?

The only thing I can see from 809.05 price is that it could equal 08/09/05 or August 9th..

The significance is that some of the stores will set the price in the system to the release date to prevent/discourage any breach of street date. (The clerk wouldn't have been able to sell the game without getting 809.05)

They probably set the same price across all platforms for Madden.

This is the correct answer.
