Who even buys sports games these days? Not a single one of my friends buy them.
Is it just a totally different demographic?
Sports games are for high school jock fags and 40 year old dads.
I play nhl, shits great when you're drunk
armpits are a top tier fetish
If you're being serious, Madden, FIFA, and NBA 2K are some of the last games with local MP on consoles. Madden and FIFA Ultimate Team make so much money it covers the budget for multiple games, and can still make a tidy profit. Similarly, NBA 2K has a similar game mode, but their online park mode (taking your single player character online for 1v1 up to 5v5) is their most popular mode. It gets players to spend real money on the funny money needed for attribute upgrades and visual accessories.

I have friends that have both the Xbone and the PS4 and all they have for both are sports games
My normie brother buys FIFA on Xbone every single year.

>bruh you got dat 2k?
>>376444949

Don't forget some Brits buying Xbones just for the exclusive FIFA cards.

Is Britain massively casual?
They get humiliated in e-sports too. (such as it is)
>>376444949
That's a girl...Right?

Gaming wise, casual tastes match up with the US more than other countries.

My 45 year old father buys Madden and MLB every year
>>376444949
Totally different demographic my guy. You gotta be into the sports in order to appreciate them.
Games like FIFA, NBA 2K, and MLB sell like hotcakes though.

Well shit, if your friends don't buy games then who the hell does?
Maybe it's the "Not OP's Friend" demographic, I hear it's huge
I miss NFL Blitz and NBA Street.
>>376444949
personaly i can't wait for this boxing game
>>376444949
I'd watch basketball if the athletes were cute girls. Probably be arrested though.
>>376444949
3D equivalent
baseball games are top-tier
>>376446909
Women's basketball is a thing you know.
Better yet, look up beach volleyball.
>>376447078
>WNBA
>>376446909
Would you play a sports vidya that featured cute girls and clothing damage for bad plays and a real-life pro sports team that also suffered clothing damage?

>I may not have dat 2k but I do have this, my nigga.

Why is her team's name Penis?

Women's basketball is confusing.
It's the kinda of demographic who likes having a bunch of his cute bros over all I close proximity with a bunch of beers and no women
If ya get what I mean
I usually pick up a $15-$20 copy of last years sports games every 3-4 years or so. I really miss the college games though, those were always my favorites.
