I think it started when EA decided to cover the market on the NCAA and NFL games... I believe after EA got the the deal to be the only to produce NCAA and NFL ( madden) ... 2k sports bought the MLB licensing .

I am betting they would find a way to screw him out of the million , I highly doubt anyone under 18 will be able to win it.

I am gonna buy it and play it over and over and over... I bet you have to do it on Superstar mode though...

Some nerd with a glitch and a pre-release copy will get it within an hour of the game's official release.

Yeah, you have to be over 18, and live in one of the 45 States where it's legal, and you have 2 months to do it:
