#8 of 2009: NCAA Football 10
The ranking of games in the best of 2009 list is based primarily on the personal amount of enjoyment had with a particular title. Some other factors include whether advertised features were fully delivered on, post-release support, community interaction and communication, overall gameplay experience, feature set, and online play performance. Again this is a personal take on the games. The analysis is weighted largely towards those which I had the most fun with while considering them as a who...

The Worst Games of 2009
Now that December has arrived and all of the sports titles have been released there will be articles featured throughout the remainder month that look back on the games and big stories of the year. Before starting the countdown on the top 10 games of 2009 the worst has to be cleared out. Last year those were fringe titles FIFA Street 3 and Facebreaker. This time around there is a major franchise included. (more...)...

#1 of 2008: NCAA Football 09
The NCAA Football series has always filled its role as the first football game of the year effectively holding me over until Madden. I'm more of a fan of the pros than college so there is more attachment to Madden. Once that was released I'd turn my full attention to it even though in many cases NCAA was a better game. That was the case until this year anyway. NCAA Football 09 introduced Online Dynasties which changed the course of sports gaming and how the games can be enjoyed. I'm still...

#2 of 2008: NHL 09
Top to bottom NHL 09 was probably the highest quality sports game released this year. Excellent gameplay, a great secondary mode in Be a Pro, and an amazing online play experience that expanded past anything offered in the past. EA Canada really delivered with both NHL and FIFA this year and it is hard to imagine how they'll top them with the 2010 releases. Much of what I explained with FIFA 09 fits with NHL 09. It is a very realistic and clean representation of the sport that has a level...

#3 of 2008: MLB 08 The Show
There was probably no sports title out this year that replicated the authenticity and nuances associated with its respective sport to the extent that MLB 08: The Show did. The overall gameplay experience is excellent. What The Show really achieves is the true feel of baseball. Not only in the gameplay, but the presentation, pacing, commentary, and lots of other small elements of the sport. This is a game that is considered by some to be the best baseball game ever made, and by many others to...

#4 of 2008: FIFA 09
As I mentioned when it came to Tiger Woods, sometimes a sport has a ceiling for how much enjoyment I can get out of it. That is especially the case with those that I don't follow like golf or in this case soccer. However FIFA 09 had the total package this year. Top notch gameplay, amazing online play, and the secondary mode in the form of Be a Pro. What Be a Pro and Online Team Play does in a title like FIFA is constrict the scope of the game. For someone like myself that is critical. By ...
