$20.34 for PS3 and $5 for PS2 games.
Vice versa:
Valid claims for the purchase of Madden NFL, NCAA Football, or Arena Football videogames for the Xbox, PlayStation 2, PC, or GameCube platforms (“Sixth Generation Purchasers”) will be valued at $20.37 per new game purchased, up to a total of eight units ($162.96).

Valid claims for the purchase of Madden NFL, NCAA Football, or Arena Football videogames for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, or Wii platforms (“Seventh Generation Purchasers”) will be valued at $5.85 per new game purchased, up to a total of eight units ($46.80).
The argument made was the they increased the price of the Sixth Generation Product (PS2 in our case) from $30 to $50 immediately upon reaching the exclusive agreement with the NFL and NCAA (the following release year). There was no precedent for releasing a PS2 sports game at that price point (allegedly).

The PS3 games have always been at the $60 price point, but they are still monopolizing the market with their agreement so they're only seeking ~10% per unit for those purchases.

Still, I counted 3 PS2 purchases and 6 PS3 purchases (I haven't bought Madden in more than 10 years). That's about $100 for me.

However, I'm uncertain where those dollar amounts came from. The dollar amounts being talked about in all the court documents that I can follow are lower (~$6 for PS2 and ~$2 for PS3).

Go to the site listed in the first post:
https://www.easportslitigation.com/

Then click on file a claim,
then there is a section that says this:

I never received a postcard or email notice and do not have a Claim ID

Please click here to submit a claim form.


I clicked on that link and then filled everything out.



And shel, usually with class action lawsuits like this, no, you do not need to produce receipts.
