Madden NFL 25 Anniversary Edition- Insane Bang For Your Buck

Twinfinite writes: "While Special Editions of games have become more and more commonplace, the quality of the extra features has declined steeply. Up until this point, the special edition of Madden games has numbered among those that aren’t worth the extra money. That all changed this year when EA Sports and Amazon announced the Madden NFL 25 Anniversary Edition."

I dont think the author realize this nfl ticket promotion is free when you sign up for direct tv without needing the nfl anni package-- i signed up for direct tv and got free sunday ticket 3 months ago-- yeah so much for the 300 savings they are talking about.

Well it can be hard to follow promos / bonuses, since Direct TV doesn't always promote their promotions. Like you can see on a lot of deal sites that people have threatened to leave Direct TV and were rewarded with the Sunday ticket. Considering it's their biggest draw, which they're about to lose exclusivity over... it's certainly possible to get it for free.

However, this includes the online version and not everyone will be into that, etc.

i suppose the online version holds some merit for some -- but in my case i like too sit down on my couch and watch football with an ice cold beer in my hand-- pc and tablets just doesnt do it for me, especially when i have a 60 inch tv with hi def direct tv genie hooked up--- i still dont see much value in this package-- i expect something much more than to subscribe into another service while paying extra for the collection. if they included ncaa football game with this package that would be a good deal in my books.

Putting it on my laptop via hdmi to my 52 inch. Pro move

Honestly... I thought this was quite possibly the worst CE ever made. The biggest problem is all the research, limits, guidelines, restrictions and conditions that go into even making the Sunday ticket viable.

You can load the ticket on to a tablet or pc. You don't need direct tv

1) Never said you needed Direct TV.
2) That is all the voucher does.

"For fans who are already DirecTV and NFL Sunday Ticket Max subscribers, you can access NFL Sunday Ticket on your computer, tablet, and mobile devices using your current DirecTV username and password."

"If I have DirecTV service but not NFL Sunday Ticket, what does this offer me?
You can use the included code to access NFL Sunday Ticket on computer, tablet, and mobile devices."

This is what makes the CE so awful in my opinion... it's not as awesome as it sounds and there is a lot of restrictions you need to make sure you understand.
