Back in 2019, I wrote this block attached here. https://forums.operationsports.com/t...to-see-return/
I laid out a few past sports title that could be fun to see come back. I wanted to revisit this and maybe change things up. I'm going to be excluding some from the list. Ones like NFL 2K that we all want back but know the reasons why we won't, I will be leaving off this time. Doesn't mean I don't want it. But I'd rather focus on sports games that we've been missing and have an easier path at returning.
And since this is inspired by the return of College Football (formally known as NCAA series), I figured I'd post it here. This game has generated so much excitement on these boards. It really is feeling like the old day so share your list here as well.
5. March Madness - If EA finds successes (spoiler alert: they will) with College Football 25, could they return to College Basketball next? While I have another game ranked higher here, I wanted include the old March Madness series as well.
4. NBA, NFL, FIFA Street/NFL Blitz/MLB Slugfest - These arcade titles were a lot of fun. I'd love to see them return and give us a different flair. I don't know that they ever will though. Seems more likely to have them packed as mode in the core game that is shell of what once was.
3. Fight Night - EA's boxing series was one myself and friends had a lot of fun with. I know Undisputed is coming soon and will fill a boxing void. But I'd love to see this one come back.
2. MVP College Baseball - College baseball seems to growing. It would be nice to see this game come back on a grander scale. Maybe they could include softball so both sports get a fun virtual game. (Or just make it's own game.) If it returns, they need to do it right like the new football title and make sure all the stadiums are included this time.
1. College Hoops 2K - The best college basketball game of all time is hopefully the one that returns. I put March Madness in the list because it might be more realistic but this one we all want. And they could inlcude the women's game now too since it has had a surge in popularity. (Or make it is own game.)
Any I'm missing you can think of. I don't know if College Football will spark other games to come back but I'm at least hopeful for more college sports titles in the future.
