What truly made this FIFA legendary was the fact that it fixed some of its issues that players highlighted, such as the revamp of the manager mode. The whole gameplay, soundtrack, as well as overall presentation made this a top contender for the best sports video game ever. Unfortunately, it was recently announced that <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FIFA 23 would be the last for EA sports<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Right now, there is no word on who will pick it up next. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Release: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">October 2009<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Platforms:<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Microsoft Windows, Wii, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PlayStation Portable, Nintendo DS, iOS, Android, Java ME<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4457 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/news969.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Games2.jpg\" alt=\"Games\" width=\"341\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news969.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Games2.jpg 341w, https:\/\/news969.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Games2-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 341px) 100vw, 341px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wii_Sports_2006\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wii Sports 2006<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This simulated sports video game took gaming to new heights by allowing players a fully immersive experience and<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">became a cult classic<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It was a collection of short yet funny sports mini-games that players could take part in using the motion-controlled controllers. This added hours of fun as participants could enjoy sports such as tennis, baseball, bowling, golf, boxing, and more! Fun fact: In the bowling game, you will see different reactions from the crowd depending on what action you do as a player. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Release: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">November 2006<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Platform: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wii<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Madden_NFL_2005\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Madden NFL 2005<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having an insane score of 9.5 out of 10 on IGN, we unpack why this is the case. Firstly, the soundtrack was lit and featured bangers such as <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Green Day, American Idiot, Franz Ferdinand, Take Me Out<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Will. I. Am, Go<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Secondly, the game was exceptionally well received on PlayStation 2, with game ranking sites giving it an overall score of 90%.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Release: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">August 2004<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Platforms: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nintendo GameCube, PlayStation 2, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo DS, Microsoft Windows, Game Boy Advance, Tapwave Zodiac<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tiger_Woods_PGA_Tour_2004-_Best_Sports_Video_Games\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004- Best Sports Video Games<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the thinking is that golf is boring, this game proved otherwise and was highly popular among golfing and non-golfing fans. Featuring the iconic star Tiger Woods on the cover, the game was highly popular, receiving an overall rating of 9.1 out of 10 from GameSpot. GameSpot further named it the best PlayStation 2 game in September 2003. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004 truly offered a realistic (at the time) feel for golf. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Release: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">October 2002<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Platforms: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nintendo GameCube, PlayStation 2, Microsoft Windows, Xbox, Game Boy Advance, N-Gage<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"UFC_Undisputed_3\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">UFC Undisputed 3<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There were a few notable changes in this game that genuinely cement it as a great sports video game. Firstly, the developers worked on the stand-up game and redefined its submission system, allowing players to develop their fighters much better. This appealed to both UFC fans and those who would generally not watch the sport. Secondly, it was the first time the game featured the Japanese PRIDE FC league, which added even more authenticity. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Release: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2012<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Platforms: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PlayStation 3, Xbox 360<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"WWE_Smackdown_Here_comes_the_Pain\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WWE Smackdown!

Here comes the Pain. Coincidentally, the catchphrase \u201chere comes the pain\u201d was said by former pro wrestler and commentator Tazz every time Brock Lesnar made his way to the ring. Fun fact, the game was only released on PlayStation 2.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Release:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> October 2003<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Platform: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PlayStation 2<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NBA_2K11\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NBA 2K11<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Released to much critical acclaim, NBA 2K11 was indeed popular, with a ranking of 8.3 out of 10 on IMDb. In this video game, you could play as your favorite basketball player (naturally) and even go on to win a championship. Fans across the world LOVED this game which included voice acting from Michael Jordan, who was also the cover athlete. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Release: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">October 2010<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Platforms:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 3, Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, Wii<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tony_Hawks_Pro_Skater_2\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tony Hawk\u2019s Pro Skater 2<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is easily the best skating game of all time! Not only is Hawk an icon himself, but he also gave us a game we still reminisce about today.

The second game in the SSX franchise immediately became a fan favorite, and it is still rated quite highly among players today. What added to the appeal is the fact that you could perform insane tricks, which essentially was the point.
