Wired has an article about Madden NFL 2004, the game that made Electronic Arts. Madden apparently told them they could only put his name on it if the gameplay reflected the sport by using 11 players on a team rather than the shortened rosters of other games. From that kernel of realism came a philosophy that revolutionized the industry. One of the funnier bits of the article are the players themselves, who eagerly await each new generation of the game to see how their stats fare within the game itself. (thanks ben)
