Just look at what Midway tried to do with its Blitz the League games, or what 2K Sports attempted to accomplish with All Pro Football 2K8. While those titles were far from lackluster, they never stood a chance against the Madden franchise. Now 505 Games, undaunted, takes the field with Backbreaker, its powerful football game, fueled by an innovative engine put together by NaturalMotion. Sadly, a few shortcomings prevent the game from dominating."

There are many sports franchises that are fantastic editions to the world of gaming, deserving both as an edition to their respective gaming field and to video gaming at large. Other franchises, however, have seen their time. It’s time for these franchises to go the way of the dinosaur before they get even worse than they already are.
Should be dissolved too. The yearly additions are essentially the same except for rosters, schedules, and new stadiums.
I would go as far as to say that most of these games are actually worse than the previous iteration.
