Game developer EA has an exciting offer for NFL and Madden fans in launching the new "Madden 15".
EA's "Challenge Cam Newton" is a contest which offers the winners a trip to EA Tiburon in Orlando, Florida. The lucky ones can bring one guest and will actually play "Madden NFL 15" with Cam Newton before the official release of the game, as well as get the game on release day, a few EA paraphernalia and a signed NFL item.
Although Seattle Seahawks DB Richard Sherman is on the official cover of "Madden 15", Cam Newton is widely known as a Madden enthusiast.
To get a chance to win the contest, participants need to tweet a video to @EAMaddenNFL featuring their "Madden transformation."
The "Challenge Cam Newton" rules for "Madden 15" were detailed in an article by Go Madden. See below:

In a report by EA.com, there will be two prizes given out.
