        I'm not in love with the look of either one -- really not feeling the Hillis art. I like the Cleveland waterfront in the background, but I would have chosen a different foreground pic of Hillis.

        I think the Faulk cover looks better but the bronze pic with the gray and black trimmings ain't workin' for me. I'd look a lot better if the entire case was engraved bronze.

              I'd probably get it if it contained a points card or a voucher for some of the inevitable DLC, otherwise HOF edition doesn't offer anything I'd want other than the spiffy cover.

                  It would look a lot better if the regular version was $39.99 and the HOF version was $59.99.

                    His eyes are creaping me out. They just look weird.

                    I don't really care about covers of games, but I like to see a Browns player getting some love. The Browns are one of the coolest, old school teams in the league. Got to love them.

                        Neither covers look that great to me. The background on the Hillis cover just looks.... awkward I guess.

                          I burst into laughter when I saw the cover. Why is there a Marshal Faulk cover too? Hahahaha

                              Hall of Fame edition is not worth 90 bucks.
