With the increased processing power over the last generation, gamers were able to enjoy more realistic and beautiful sports games and realistic AI to top it off.
This sequel to the critically acclaimed and realistic title Fight Night Round 3 takes the adrenaline pumping action of the last title and updates it with even more new features. One noticeable change that returning players will notice immediately is that the career mode has been replaced by the legacy mode. While the gameplay is relatively similar to previous entries, this title puts more focus on counter punches rather than blocks which changes up the gameplay nicely.
The game also introduces a point system rather than the controllable cutman in previous titles. There are 48 different boxers to choose from in this title making for one of the best boxing games for the PlayStation 2. This iteration in the long-running FIFA franchise by EA makes a few notable changes that will give players a new, fresh experience.
New to this title is the Total Football Experience which will update the player on league news from around their Manager Mode world to add some cool realism to this title. The player is also able to hire an assistant manager which will take care of some of the player management for upcoming matches for them.
Individual player growth has also been overhauled allowing players to improve based upon their performance in a specific match. MLB The Show brings the on-field realism that baseball fans crave back for another iteration. This entry to the series updates upon most of the mechanics seen in previous titles. The Road to the Show mode makes a comeback in this title with even more realism to keep players engaged.
Players will still be able to take their custom character from a dinky minor league bus to the major leagues and reach stardom as they claim the World Series.

Updated on July 3rd, by Kevin Pantoja: Considering Madden's history as arguably the most iconic sports gaming franchise ever, it has had some fantastic entries over the years.
Although many longtime fans might agree that the quality has dipped in recent years, those installments have still been met with solid reviews, especially on Metacritic , helping to find the best Madden game. Right off the bat, Madden NFL 18 stood out because of its cover. Tom Brady graced it and to play off of that, they offered up a "G. Edition" that gave players early access.
In a notable addition to the series, this was the first installment to feature the Frostbite engine that is stilled used today. This game also marked the debut of the Longshot mode, which let you control a quarterback as he went through high school, college, the combine, and eventually the NFL. Some reviewers considered it to be a great addition but some thought it was something of a disappointment.
A year before Brady was on the cover, his teammate Rob Gronkowski was given the honor. By this point, those who had been playing the game for over a decade had noticed that things weren't changing all that much in terms of gameplay. So, EA Sports looked to make a few alterations to improve things, including adding the ground game mechanism to balance things out. They also made franchise mode a bit deeper and worked on the defensive side of things.
On the flip side, commentary and presentation missed the mark. There are a few historic caveats regarding this game, including it being the final Madden released on the Wii and the only one for the Wii U and PlayStation Vita. As soon as it was booted up, some fans were upset as the popular EA Trax was gone, meaning there wasn't any licensed music. Instead, the menus were filled with instrumentals and it turned away fans. However, the gameplay was seen as solid and a true highlight was the Connected Careers mode that let players combine Franchise and Superstar mode into one place if they wanted.
Following the aforementioned removal of EA Trax, it took the game three years to reintroduce it. Songs returned in Madden NFL 16 but there was still an option to go with what the composer put together if that's what the gamer wanted instead. In terms of the actual gameplay, not all that much had changed but a larger focus was put on the passing mechanics.
The game also took advantage of the popularity of fantasy football with the Draft Champions mode, combining fantasy elements with on-the-field action. There were still attempts to innovate the series when Madden NFL 11 hit the shelves.
One way this installment did that was to include GameFlow and was done to speed up the time each game took.
