I'm craving a sports game at the moment, but none of the options seem very enticing.

Not enough changes in "Pro Evo" from year-to-year to make it worth buying annually. Plus, it sounds like they turned "Master League" into some kind of cinematic mode, whereas I'd rather see a shift the other way towards more of a "football manager", mouse-driven spreadsheet interface. Incidentally, the game also got a bizarre name change this season-- "eFootball"? I guess they're trying to differentiate from "FIFA".

I haven't bought an NBA-based game since 2002 on the original Xbox. However, WNBA players were added to "NBA 2K20"-- but you can only use them in single season mode, so what's the point? Maybe next year. The game also has a Colin "hands up don't shoot" Kaeperdick-inspired single player mode, which is a real turn-off. Even if I chose to just ignore it, why pay money to support the creation of such nonsense?

That leaves the latest "Madden", which I guess is a copy & paste of last year's game, with a new menu theme. I didn't buy the 2019 version, so it could be worth it. And I'm sure it'd run at native 2160p on my RTX 2080. But the rap music in the menus and overall emphasis on ghetto rape drug-dealer culture drove me nuts in the 2018 edition of the game-- not sure I could fight through that again.

Maybe I just need to toss my copy of 1994's "FIFA" into my 3DO and call it a day!
