Fitzgerald, Polamalu grace cover of 'Madden NFL 10'http://content.usatoday.com/communities/gamehunters/post/2009/04/65964763/1  Decorating the cover of Madden NFL is now a two-man job.
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald and Pittsburgh Steelers safety Troy Polamalu will both appear on the cover of Madden NFL 10, according to a release from Electronic Arts. It will mark the first time two football players will be featured on the front of the game box. "Madden NFL 10 showcases the Fight For Every Yard, and nobody fights harder than Troy and Larry, making them the perfect athletes to grace the cover," says Anthony Stevenson, the game's senior product manager, in a statement. Fitzgerald becomes the second football player to appear on both the covers of Madden NFL and the NCAA Football series (Running back Shaun Alexander is the other).
"This is a big year for the game, and to be associated with it is truly an honor," Fitzgerald says in an interview. Madden NFL 10 will debut a new animation techonology dubbed Pro-Tak, which will introduce steerable tackles and the ability to fight for fumbles. The game hits retail on August 14.
