     The many modes of Madden football.  This covers the main ideas of every
possible mode in this game.  You'll first need to pick your Game Type, either:

EAsy Play (You can begin a game real quickly with the default options,
rosters, teams, and choices.  This will allow you to pick two teams for
competition, and then choose who will control each team.  Very basic, this is
meant for people who just want to pick up a game and play!)

or

Normal Play (This is the default mode in Madden NFL 2002.  This lets you pick
any of the following options..)


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Play Now
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quick Game          This is much like EAsy mode.  You can pick two teams, and
                    who controls them.  Not much more.

Two Minute Drill    In this mode, you have two minutes to score as many points
                    as possible, following most normal NFL rules.  You start
                    on your own 20-yardline, and must score in two minutes.  If
                    you do, you'll start back at the 20-yardline, with time
                    elapsed, ready for you to try again.  See how many times
                    you can score in two minutes!

Training Mode       This is a very cool mode, one that I recomend you trying.
                    If you want to earn lots of Madden Tokens easily, while
                    at the same time fooling around with some cool plays and
                    learning the basics of football, then this is the mode for
                    you!


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Game Modes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Exhibition          This is a standard game of football.  You'll be able to use
                    any profiles, Madden Cards, rosters, teams, or whatever, in
                    this mode.  Great for playing with a friend.

Season              Pick a team, or teams, and play with them through one
                    entire season, while dealing with statistics, injuries,
                    salary cap problems, and other duties.  You can choose to
                    do a draft all of the NFL players, or you can play as a
                    current NFL team.

Franchise           The heart and soul of Madden, this is where the game is at.
                    Hardcore football fans will love Franchise, where you
                    pick a team, or teams, and guide them through thirty years
                    of NFL football.  It runs much like Season, with the
                    exception of it's length, thirty years.  You'll get new
                    rookies every year, too.  Very fun, highly recomended!

Tournament          Stage your own Playoffs quickly, and easily.  You pick
                    four, eight, or sixteen teams, and pit them against
                    one another in single, or double, elimination matches.

Custom League       Start your own NFL league of four to sixteen teams.  You
                    can customize the schedule format, among other options.

Practice            Practice any aspect of football, from punts to runs to
                    kickoffs.  It's fun, but not overly useful.

Situation           Relive Super Bowl 25 and give the Bills one more chance to
                    kick the gamewinning field goal, or create any situation
                    you can think of.  You can decide the teams, the score, the
                    quarter, the time remaining, the down, the line of
                    scrimage, the number of timeouts, and more, of the game.

                    You can do it all in the Rosters section.  You can save as
                    many rosters as you want, too.  Very good area to explore.

Create-A-Team       Choose from thousands of combinations of logos and colors,
                    and make your own NFL team.  Choose where they play, their
                    name, and even their stadium!  Work with the uniform to
                    make it suitable, editing the helmet colors and stripes,
                    the uniform numbering, strips, and colors, and much, much
                    more.  If you can dream it, you can make it.

                    even set your audibles.

                    more.  Check a later section for complete information.

coin toss.

Sometimes you can choose this option.  It basically means that you can earn
tokens while doing the activity you selected.  If you want tokens, turn it on..

               FB - #20 to 49
               WR - #80 to 89
               TE - #80 to 89

               NOTES: The numbers 90 to 99 are reserved for any defensive
               position that needs an extra number.  For example, Warren Sapp
               is number 99.  Also, it is now seemingly acceptable for a
               wide receiver to be a number in the tens (#10 to 19).  An
               example of this is Keyshawn Johnson, #19.  If you can not create

     I recomend the second preset controller setting (X is sprint on defense,
O changes players).  This is what it looks like.  Also note that the right
stick can be used for many of these motions.  I encourage you to try it.

     Because the game came out in August, and season starts in September, many
changes occur.  This will help you make your rosters as updated as possible.

Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With the tragic death of Korey Stringer, you can do whatever you want with him.
Personally, I edited him down to a 0 rating and removed his name and attributes
so he wasn't signed by anyone.  Rest in peace.

Terry Glenn was suspended for missing a drug test, and is likely to retire
soon, so do what you please with him.

Michael Bates plays wide receiver for the Redskins, but is a halfback in
Madden NFL 2002.

The players to "create" edit are players that are not in the game.  You can
either make them, or alter other insignificant players.  Choose a black player
to edit for the black players that need to be in the game, and a caucasian
player to edit for the caucasian players.  B. Cockerham, W. Richardson,
T. Woodburry, and S. Bonner are all black quarterbacks you can use to edit the
black quarterbacks.

My FAQs are intentionally small in KB.  I cut out every last piece of unneeded
spacing and other areas.  I don't try to drag them out so I can get onto the
GameFaqs Most Proliffic Writers list.  They are as small as possible while
keeping their completeness.
