Browns running back Peyton Hillis was announced the winner of the fan vote for the cover of the Madden 12 today. :Clap:

A Browns running back NOT NAMED Jim Brown was basically voted the most popular player, right? Isn't that what this basically was? The first time fans can vote on the COVER of the most popular sports game in America (maybe 2nd to Tony Hawk, but for sure top 2)

Yes, It was all based off of the fan votes each round.

I'd say this will hurt sales. Letting the fans vote for the player to be on the cover backfired on EA. It come down to Hillis who's only had one decent season, and a guy who used to kill dogs for a living.

I dont think it will Hillis has had a big group supporting him over the entire process and EA putting it in the hands of the fans is a big plus. I mean im ecstatic about it and when I go get the game I will have my Hillis jersey on.

^I have to disagree Aslan. I believe letting the fans have a say so, will promote the sales even more!
