NFL Pros Tackle 'Madden'

Marshall Faulk

As a former 'Madden' cover star, tell us what it was like to be chosen by EA.
I was a gamer. I played the game, so I relished the opportunity to be on the cover. It was something that I looked at like, "Man, this the game that I played as a kid and enjoyed all through college and now I get to be a cover guy."

Did you pay a lot of attention to your in-game stats?
Only when they started to go down.

Do you think the game is realistic?
Obviously we know the ratings aren't as realistic as [they are for the real-life] players. But the graphics... I mean, now you can pause a play, freeze-frame it, turn around and look at a player's face. It's detailed from the eye black to the tape on the fingers to what kind of facemask he wears.
