Why do Gamers Still Accept Yearly Sports Sequels?

[Zach]

Companies do it to make money. It was the norm in the days before DLC and the internet because they needed roster updates. i have no idea why we do. I guess it's because the devs make such a big deal over the new features that come.

Well these days not everyone has internet, plus there's 50-60ish new NBA players added per year, and 200+ NFL players. There is new commentary added for each game, and new content gameplay wise usually. For pro sports I think it's worthwhile to change it every year... I try to imagine if there was no NBA 2k10 or madden 2010, and we had to deal with the 2009 gameplay another year, it'd have been kinda lame. So I don't blame pro sports for doing it.

As for college sports, however, I think those should be every other year. Which is exactly what EA is doing with march madness... but the problem is that March madness sucks, and they need to bring 2k back. So for college basketball they should just stop making games and wait for another 2k game.
