AGMVC: Greatest Sports Video Games Ever (Active)

14
Vote

by user Davis21wylie

<<Back to the AGMVC

While playing a heated match in FIFA 06, it occurred to me that we should do one of these thingys on great sports video games... So, I'll pose the question myself: What is the top sports video game of all time? Remember, this includes all platforms and sports, and the only considering factors are fun and gameplay (in other words, don't focus heavily on graphics, lest the list be filled with all games from the past 5 years). A first place vote is worth 10 points, a second place is worth 9, all the way down to 1 point for a tenth place vote. Simply add a section for yourself and list your top ten.

Wait, you mean there's such a thing as a heated soccer match? Or is that only in video games?

I don't think the whole only new things will worry too much; Some of us like to get all sentimental on our choices. Quick question: should we be doing series or individual versions?

no doubt about it, the best sports video game of all time is mike tyson's punchout.

I couldn't pick a particular year with Madden, Tiger Woods, or NHL. The '94 version is obviously a huge difference from '06....but how could I pick between '98 and '99? Or '04 and '05? They're mostly the same games.

When the results come out, I think I'll rank by series rather than individual versions, and in parentheses I'll list the most popular game in that series.

Oh yeah, I remember all of the Micro League games: Baseball, NFL, College Football (which crashed my computer every time I played it), etc. I think Home of the Underdogs actually has all of them available for download, you just have to use DosBox to run them.

Yeah... <a href="http://www.t...p?gameid=709">Here</a>'s a link to a site that tells you about the game, and even has a link to download (don't worry, it's abandonware, so it's not piracy). I thought the MicroLeague games were pretty fun back when I was a kid, but I haven't played them in a long time.

Microleague was in my opinion the best pure statistic simulation ever.

I'll have to give it a try. I can go for hours just playing with simulated stats.

I was always into Strat-o-Matic although not a video game. I used to do whole seasons with old-school teams like the '27 Yanks complete with stats on one of the early versions of excel.
