The ''FIFA Soccer'', or simply ''FIFA'', series is the first soccer game series to get a FIFA license. Being one of the few games (if not the only game) with licenses from various soccer leagues in the world, the game enjoys a wide selection of teams from the most prestigious to the downright obscure.

* [[Butt Monkey]]: The poor goalkeepers, in order to have realistic scores but to compress the games to only a few minutes, are made to be less competent than other players, in a way that even the best goalies can be easily scored upon.

** Averted in the Arena kickabouts. The keeper there is as competent as he can be.

* [[Department of Redundancy Department]]: Whilst in some regions it is now known simply as FIFA, it was and is still released in parts of the world (ie. North America) as FIFA Soccer/Football. So basically it's name would be '''F'''édération '''I'''nternationale de '''F'''ootball '''A'''ssociation Football. Or in English the International Federation of Association Football...Football.

* [[The Dev Team Thinks of Everything]]: More and more every year with a different game mechanic. From simple things like the ref allowing the advantage rather than blow for a free, to the rare scenario of a defender running into a goal post. Notably it's the only game to have an option to toggle handballs on or off (if on, obviously, a foul is counted when it happens).
