There's a consistency that annual sports video games require to remain familiar and formulaic. It's less “if it ain't broke, don't fix it” and more “it's broke, but f*** it”. It's understandable, too. Radical change doesn't come on a per year basis. But there are two ways to go about making a new sports title every year: One is the NBA 2K approach, that refines the series' authentic and sweaty on-court action with each iteration; the other is the EA Sports FC way, that repackages pretty much the same game and slaps a different player's face on the box with each release.
