Sunday Ticket comes to PS3

Those of you who don't want DirecTV, go out and buy a PS3, then shell out another 340 for Sunday Ticket.

(I'm not sure if Sunday Ticket will be back on the PS3 but saw this and figured I'd post it (inb4welchingbitch comments))

Madden Special Edition Includes 'Sunday Ticket'—Even Without DirecTV

Yesterday, EA Sports announced a $100 "Anniversary Edition" for Madden NFL 25 that will include a code offering buyers access to DirecTV's NFL Sunday Ticket—the channel that lets you watch any team outside of your local market—even if they aren't subscribers to the satellite TV service.

There's been a bit of confusion as to what all this means. Yes, DirecTV is doing the deal because it hopes football fans might ditch their cable provider and sign up with them. But even if you live in an area with DirecTV access, and choose not to subscribe, you may still use the code to watch Sunday Ticket games on your computer, tablet or other mobile device. You don't have to subscribe to DirectTV.

That comes from Anthony Stevenson, Madden's director of marketing, clearing up some confusion from the official announcement yesterday. "With this offer you don't need to be a directv subscriber," he said today via Twitter. "You can access Sunday Ticket digitally."

Of course, you can't watch Sunday Ticket on a TV (unless you rig it up as your PC or mobile's display, I suppose) so DirecTV wants you to so fall in love with the Red Zone channel, and not being shackled to the Cleveland Browns, Jacksonville Jaguars or a Parade of Homes infomercial if your team is blacked out, that you're willing to slap a dish on the side of your house. That's up to you.

The "anniversary edition" is $40 more than the regular one, of course, but speaking as someone who's gone without any kind of TV service other than Netflix and MLB.tv for the past year, that's decent value. Only a "limited number" of these editions will be sold so, obviously, it's a big preorder come on.

The official news release said simply that the "unique code" included in the box was "for fans unable to receive DirecTV service." The other bullet points implied those that did have access to DirectTV would have to sign up to take advantage of the code. "Offers like this are complex and have to be written a certain way," Stevenson explained later. "Believe me, I wish it was easier too."

Yesterday, Stevenson also fielded questions from ESPN about the notorious exclusive license EA Sports has to make NFL video games. “We’re not able to comment on negotiations, but the NFL continues to be an amazing partner for us," he said. "Our relationship is stronger than it has ever been, I’ll say that, but I can’t comment on contracts or rights.” That sounds like a renewal is imminent to me, not that the NFL really has much of an option at this point.

Also, regarding the unusual name for this year's edition—Madden NFL 25, which refers to the 25th anniversary edition of the game, not the year 2025. "“Just because we’re Madden NFL 25 this year doesn’t mean that we have to be Madden NFL 26 next year or even Madden NFL 15," he said. More ammo for the theory that EA Sports will shift its flagship titles to a downloadable subscription model—obviating the need for annual releases or titles that describe them—once the next console generation arrives.

Better pre-order that shit now then because they aren't selling a ton of copies with DTV Sunday Ticket from my understanding.

You can oly watch from a PC, tablet or mobile device? No thanks I like my tv and couch on Sunday's. I'll order it through my PS3 again.

Well, remember, you would be getting it for less than $100. I could deal with watching on PC for that. Especially since more and more TVs don't have PIP anyway.

According to that, you can only use the free pass if you have no access to direct TV in your location. If you do have access to DTV then you get $10 per month off your DTV subscription and the basic sunday ticket for free. BUT you are then tied to a 2 year subscription that you didn't really want in the first place.

I don't know what the issue was, but my quality was always somewhat poor with my PS3. Just finally got Directv, free NFL Sunday Ticket this year. Worth it considering I paid three bills for it last season.

Good to know, I heard similar stories about poor PS3 quality. Loved it on the TV though.

Will be paying $225 I guess this year for it.

You getting it free or paying this year? Was curious if the price I was quoted is pretty standard.
