“We have a lot of big plans for Mass Effect. Having a DS version would be an awesome way to keep interest alive and keep it going in addition to the next one.” – Miles Holmes, BioWare

I can’t comment on BioWare as far as handheld titles go since Sonic Chronicles has yet to be released, but it would be unbelievable if BioWare were to be able to transfer the Mass Effect experience from the 360 to the DS.

In case you haven’t heard, Brett Favre has been traded to the Jets. Unfortunately for EA, the company put art of Favre in his Green Bay Packers jersey on the cover of Madden NFL 09. The company is taking action, however, and is planning for both a roster update and a new downloadable box art which features Favre in his Jets uniform.

**Madden NFL 09 will hit stores on Aug 12 with Brett Favre on the cover in his Green Bay Packers uniform.

**We do not plan to re-issue packaging, but WILL offer a free downloadable cover in the coming days on easports.com featuring Brett Favre in a Jets uniform. Fans can print this new cover out and insert it into the case of Madden NFL 09.

**We’ll have a roster update available on August 11 with Brett Favre on the NY Jets. The game ships with Brett on an all-time greats team, but with the roster update that will be downloadable when product is available at retail, Brett Favre will be the starting QB for the New York Jets. The roster update is not mandatory – unless you are planning an online head to head game, or online league.
