It's all in the name of making the latest in the series the best it can be. How boring would it be if star players never had to sit on the bench for a few games due to injury, or if 300-pound linemen never lagged in their performance in extreme heat? EA knows how integral these random factors are in professional sports and has made them a sophisticated and important part of Madden 08. It's little details like this that make professional sports perpetually entertaining and add elements of surprise and drama to the games. Past performance and choices made by players, especially QBs, will affect the outcome of plays and games as a whole. Fatigue will affect even your star players if you run them into the ground or play them in weather they're not used to. A team that is used to summer's swelter or winter's chill will perform poorly in climates they are not used to. Defensive backs will take advantage of shorter receivers to maximize interceptions and disrupt plays. For example, height, weight, fatigue, climate, past performance, and playing style will affect your team on the field.
