One of the biggest lessons in life is that sometimes we just can’t get things our way.

We live in a culture and within an era where customized and personal experiences are being delivered at an ever increasing pace. Within one genre of video games, that progress has been stifled and has fallen behind: sports video games. The old Rolling Stones song “You can’t always get what you want” has seemed all to pertinent for many titles within our genre.

Actually, it doesn't sound like all that many customizable options. Can you create a team? How about a stadium? Or custom uniforms? The mid-2000s sports games offered many more customizable options than what I'm seeing listed here, which are nothing more than glorified sliders and camera angles. Even in College Hoops 2K6 you could put in your own music to the arena. When are sports games going to return to all those customizable options, instead of offering "better graphics" every single year?

Do you even have the game ? The gameplay is highly customizable. Glorified sliders ? Yea, cool adjective.

I think next year for MANY games is going to be the year to watch. This year, not just with The Show, but with many other games, seemed rushed and just missed the mark. Great things to come, but not this year.

It'll take two more years for some franchises. That was the case for me with The Show on PS3.
