EA captures the tension and excitement of NCAA basketball's March Madness with an Xbox 360 exclusive downloadable special edition of NCAA Basketball 09.
Rather than a retail release of a special March Madness edition of their NCAA basketball title, EA is releasing NCAA Basketball 09: March Madness Edition as a downloadable exclusive for the Xbox 360. For 1200 Microsoft points ($15.00 real money), players will be able to play through the entire NCAA tournament, from the opening round to the Final Four itself, complete with a virtual replica of Ford Field court in Detroit.
"We really wanted to make our game available to a wider selection of fans that are drawn to college basketball by the passion, excitement and drama that surrounds March Madness," said Connor Dougan, Producer for NCAAź Basketball 09: March Madness Edition. "Fans will be able to experience the tournament, feel the adrenaline rush that comes with a single loss elimination tournament and write their own history."
