Aug PlayStation and Madden NFL 10 invaded the new Cowboys Stadium this past Saturday and the fans that attended scored big! Fans of PlayStation, Madden and the Cowboys took over the field to face off in the first football game ever played in the world-record breaking, state-of-the-art stadium.
In addition to being the first to get their hands on Madden NFL 10 before it can be purchased in stores, contestants also got the opportunity to face off against real pro, Dallas Cowboy alumni Rocket Ismail, and see their real-time gameplay broadcasted across the stadium’s famous 60-yard HD television! Texas native Germaine Donnell beat out over 200 other contestants to take home the grand prize of a new PS3 and a copy of Madden NFL 10, while 2nd and 3rd place winner’s Jordan Alvidrez and Joe Thigpen each received a PSP and copy of Madden NFL 10.
Thanks to all of you who submitted your photos to the Touchdown, MADDEN! Contest on the Blog. Below is a peek at some of the entries we received (you can check out all winning entries on Flickr) as well as some photos from the event with Cowboy’s alumni Rocket Ismail. Make sure you pick up a copy of Madden NFL 10 this Friday, August 14th when it hits stores!
The winners walked away with PS3s and PSPs, including copies of Madden NFL 10!
Here’s just a few of the winning photo entries. You can see the rest here:

That sucks! Why can’t Playstation do things like this in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It’s always in other state, but never here, why? Bring the Playstation truck here! I would like to have some of those goodies too.

I think that should be everyone’s dream. Their own gameplay shown in a stadium equals epic win.

Hopefully something like this will come to East Rutherford, NJ. Go Giants…
BTW I was wondering when the Playstation brand was going to become the defacto console for Madden tournaments again. I always see that they use Xboxes.. I remember it was not like this in the early PS2 lifetime…any reason why this changed?
