Madden NFL is an American football video game series developed by Electronic Arts Tiburon for EA Sports. The game is named after Pro Football Hall of Famer John Madden, a well-known color commentator for NBC Sports and formerly a successful Super Bowl-winning coach during the 1970s with the Oakland Raiders. Due to a contractual obligation, Bill Parcells cannot appear in the Madden NFL series until his television contract with ESPN expires. Currently, the game names him "Dallas Coach." However, Parcells retired and was succeeded by Wade Phillips, who is a member of the NFL Coaches Association. Phillips will likely appear in Madden 08. Likewise, New England Patriots head coach, Bill Belichick is no longer in the game because he is not a member of the NFL Coaches Association, which sells the rights to have the coaches' names in the game.
There are multiple modes of game play, from a quick head-to-head game to running a team for a whole season or even multiple seasons. Online play, which was a new feature for Madden NFL 2003 (in this versions there are also mini-camp challenges) was only available for users of the PlayStation 2 console or a Microsoft Windows PC until early 2004.
