* ModularDifficulty: Most of the games do have standard DifficultyLevels, but allow for the adjustments of individual settings for both the human-controlled team and the AI. Examples include penalty frequency, kicking/punting success, non-human controlled player AI skills (catching, tackling, blocking, etc.), and many more. Each year, many ''Madden'' players even share the settings that they've found to produce the most realistic and/or challenging (without being overly frustrating) with the community.

** Quite a few offensive plays can be used infinitely and the AI will never catch on. Exactly which plays vary from year to year as the AI is tweaked, but there has yet to be an iteration of the game which doesn't include at least a few of these.

Not really sure whether this is an example at all, but even if it is, the mis-italicized Creator link has to go.

* ArmyOfTheAges: Many iterations through the mid-2000s included "historic" rosters for each team with the best players in franchise history up to that point represented. It was quite satisfying to roll over the competition with a team of every elite legend from the team's history, which could stretch back for a century in some cases. However, as their likeness was being used without compensation, some of these former players sued and ''Creator/{{EA}}'' stopped including these teams around 2008-09.
