    I like it!
    The cover looks tight.
    I hope it's also an indication of a welcome menu/interface change within the whole game

        This is sort of a let down. I thought we were going to find out something about the game itself. A new feature set maybe. That's sort of what I figured when that guy said we were going to find out a lot in the next 2 days.

          I think the news releases got delayed a couple of days, but you never know. There is still a lot of time left

            And for how good this game anyways, they could put Yuniesky Betancourt on the cover and I'd be perfectly fine with it. The only time I even see the cover is from the time the cashier hands me my copy of the show to the time it hits my shelf since I don't put the game back into the case until about when NCAA comes out in July.

            Can't wait to start hearing some new info and details!
            I hear you. My first thought was "I am not even allowed in Mexico."

            Who cares about the cover?

                  Surprising move to say the least. I do like this years cover better though. Anyway, next stop game info! I hope!

                    ya the cover looks sweet im not a huge fan of the same cover boy back-to-back but i do love jow mauer. But to tell you the truth, i get a custom cover every year anyway so the cover guy doesnt mean much to me at all, i really we get more info today though at least something lol.

                        Makes sense from a business standpoint. Hopefully, the decison to put him on the cover was based on it was cheaper than putting on another high value player who would ask more for endorsement and that more money went into the development of the game due to the awesome features they are adding this year...LOL

                          You're not the only one. I don't like the idea of the same guy back to back. I was hoping to be surprised.

                            But you are surprised though, right? See, it worked!

                              Doesn't matter much to me because I would buy it if Betty Crocker was on the cover, but it does surprise me. Reason being I remember someone asking a game developer one time why not use the same athlete from year to year...the response was that by doing so the "casual gamer" would feel there was no difference in the game.

                                I see what you mean, but I meant being surprised with a NEW cover Athlete. You knew that:wink:
