If i pre-order this and it happens to be a glitch, do you think they will honor the $20 price?

...kind of makes me wonder at such a low price how much will this game suck?....

Gamestop is taking pre-orders for it at $49.99 so it's probably a mistake. I hope they honor it though. I wasn't planning on getting a new football game this year (have NCAA 2K3 and Blitz 2003 which is enough for me) but at $19.99 I am tempted to pre-order it.

Doesn't woop madden IMO. Every year I rent it, and I find myself going right back to Madden.

First off, thanks for the deal. I'm a touch worried they will raise the price on it, but if we get it for $20 + shipping (+ tax in my case) then it's a GREAT deal.
Second, I've been a Madden fan since the beginning, and will likely run up to the local Gamestop and pre-order the "special edition" of 2005 soon. But that said, I loved the "crib" mode last year, and gameplay that was tough, but didn't have me throwing interceptions every other down. And even the first person mode was interesting. So I can't speak enough for ESPN Football.
I just hope what I heard is true, and that online leagues will have trades and free agents. That would be SWEET!

Oh my frickin Lord!
I just need to double-check. This IS the main football franchise from Sega, a.k.a. the 2k series, right?
If it is I need to order this now. I was saving this $19 for my Dog's Life pre-order, which I was going to do today; but this is just too good.
Please respond to reasure me this is the series I think it is. Thank you tons ajh!

This is true for me also even though I have a PS2 also I like the XBOX versions of everything because of the hard-drive the XBOX has compared with dealing with the PS2 memory cards.
As far as Madden vs. ESPN I buy both every year and seem to get my money worth out of both games.
I just missed out on this by a couple of seconds. Now I'm whiny and hope they don't honor everyone that got it for 20 :-(

WOW! That's some reaction time! They must have people watching this board... or something.
Boy, that's my second close shave in the last couple days. First I get one of the last few GT4 demos and now this. Why, oh why, did I not sign up here ages ago? CAG rocks!

Just want to throw in that I think both Madden and ESPN/Sega NFL are good games but I personally think ESPN is more fun. Yeah - too bad this deal wasn't on Xbox :)

I am a Madden fan after playing the NFL 2k stuff on PS2. I have never really went back to the new stuff but the graphics do look very cool. I am still getting Madden this year (on Xbox instead of GC because of Xbox Live) but if I could find a good deal on ESPN for XB i would play that too i guess.

Aw crap! I just realized... If I had been thinking like a true CAG, I would have ordered two or three and then sold the ones I didn't need after the release for a big fat profit.
Oh, well... Perhaps that will offer some consolation to those of you who missed out by a couple seconds. Actually, that has to be a great, great 'sucks to be you' story. Look at it this way, you missed out on a Cheap game, but you gained an amusing story for life :)

No that is the way of FatWallet young grasshopper the true CAGer would help his fellow brothen before making a profit.
