Where is everyone buying Madden 2005? What's the best deal? and are you guys getting the Collectors Edition?

It would be cool to have the 3 playable versions, but not sure if it's worth the extra...

only 10 more bucks. I've had the CE version reserved at EB for a while now.

I'm waiting for the PC version which wont be out until September :( Thankfully i have Doom 3 to keep me busy.

Electronic Arts has today announced that it will release a Collector's Edition of Madden NFL 2005 exclusively for the PS2 in August. The $59.95 Collector's Edition, which celebrates the popular series' 15th year, will ship with what can only be described as a lot of Madden-related goodness not included with the regular version of the game.

In addition to the regular version of Madden NFL 2005 in limited edition collectible packaging, the Collector's Edition will include: playable classic versions of Madden from the 16-bit era and two from the PlayStation era, a Madden trivia challenge with over 1000 questions, "Madden Moments" spanning the past 15 seasons, and historical playoff teams from the past 15 years--each with their authentic uniforms. Other goodies exclusive to the Collector's Edition will include: bonus video content including footage of "The Madden Phenomenon", "The Music of Madden", and a documentary looking into how the game is developed every year from scratch.

Online play using the Madden NFL 2005 Collector's Edition will, of course, be compatible with the regular PS2 version of the game. Online play will also feature in the Xbox and PC versions scheduled for release in August and September respectively.

More info has since been revealed. I can't remember what years the 3 classic maddens are from, but I do know that they updated the rosters in each to the current year.

i think it's 93, 98 and 2001

I've had a CE preordered from EB for awhile now. They usually get it a day or two in advance, so hopefully I'll get lucky and get my copy on the 10th.

93 would be cool however I wish it was 94.

Does anybody know why the PC version is coming out on September 8th and not the same day as the PS2/Xbox versions? Don't they usually all come out together?

XBox for me, and I'll be picking it up at Gamestop.
