the game is usually done programed by early summer, then they have tests and work out some quirks. i think its the fact that EA has a contract with the NFLPA, and when the game isp rogrammed and the rosters are included, the rooks arent signed yet.

Hundreds (Thousands?) of people already have been issued the game by EA, so even though most are under contract when it is released to the general public, practically none, if any are signed when they are done making it. Basically they are just lazy and don't care how we feel about rookie pictures :glare:</div>You have to be part of the NFLPA for them to use your picture. And if you aren't signed, they can't use your photo. Sadly they press to get it on the market before the season, so most rookies can't have their photos unless they sign soon after the draft. Mario Williams should be pictured, lol.So it's really a toss up. Rookie pictures of the game coming out after the season has started.

It's a few hours later that it comes out for public, so I guess I can wait a few hours.

I'll be getting mine in about 27-28 hours. Then I won't go to sleep until Wednesday night before school. I'm a savage like that, I stay up until AT LEAST 7 AM every day. I stayed up for like 60 something hours straight a few weeks ago.

I'd get it but I have no $ for it. I'll get my little brother to trade in some games for it later on today.
I kicked it with my friend last night. First game we played, I returned 2 kick off returns for a TD against him using Maurice "Drew-Jones" (the game has it listed backwards)
