This is what I saw at the EB site. Makes sense since T.O. was announced as the cover boy awhile back.

I'd love for one of the Ravens to be on this cover with him since his midsection is exposed

Really nice cover imo.

cool cover but i have a feeling they will change it, and the backround will be black

damn, i still can't believe this game is going to be only $20 now i can by madden and espn

Are you serious? That looks hideous!

And no, it's not because TO's on it, or because of the capture of how he's catching it, but it's the layout.

I mean, first of all, the ESPN logo is way at the top, not to mention some of it is being hidden by TO's arm and the football. And secondly, they just slap the NFL logo and the 2K5 logo onto the side very crappily, like the picture is the important thing. The 2K5 logo is too big, also. The layout is horrible.

Thankfully, this is why we never judge a game by its cover.

It's a "so-so" cover to me. The one thing I like about it tho is the huge ESPN logo. I think that might grab some casual gamers as ESPN is generally known as a good product. At least on tv.

I like the cover. Its not the usual Runningback running with the ball or a linebacker posing like hes the Hulk.

Its better than last years cover albeit last years was meant to call attention to the game.

I have to admit that Madden's cover is a lot better. That means nothing towards what game I'm buying, as I'm getting ESPN defintiely and Madden possibly.

I would like them to go to a black background, as was mentioned.
