I agree sport games do not need released every year but a subscription has the consumer lose some control.* What I mean is right now I have Madden 17 and playing it fine, the changes to M18 from what I could tell were minimal to what I care about and I don't care to play M18 and I like how M17 plays.* So I can choose to stay with M17.
But if subscription based model comes along and you are say 2 years in and Madden feels great and has everything I like as a game....then EA updates the game, tweaks CFM to something I do not like...then I am stuck without the version i enjoyed playing...does this make sense?*
