Sports games....

So, I had some extra time on my hands, and I was looking through gamefly. It got me thinking, why are there so many sports games???

I mean I hear people complain a lot over shooters and WWII. I don't see complaints of sports games that much.

Seriously, I just looked at this gen. Xbox 360 list (assuming the other current gen systems have the same sports games) So I am not even talking about last gen or what is more to come this gen. (Forty-Seven (47 total, this gen that are already out)

*Note* - *I left out games that aren't out yet*

You have got:

I probably even missed some. I also didn't include fishing, or racing/nascar. Not sure if those would count as sports. If so that would add about 5-6 more.

Look harder because I see people complain about sports games all the time. Personally I love the NHL games.Devourment423

People complain about sports, but overall sports games are in high demand and its pretty much acceptable for them to come out every year with minimal to no changes at all.

Noone complains about them because almost noone buys them.AnonymousKitten

That's just it though if "no one buys them" why do they keep putting out tons each year?
