Favorite sports game? (NO MADDEN)

I used to exclusively play sports games and I've played a lot of good and bad ones. My favorite is probably NBA Street V3. That game gives me nothing but good memories. Well, except for those memories of Bobbito Garcia NOT SHUTTING THE FUCK UP EVER.

Fine, sims count. Because to be honest my favorite sports game is Madden 04.

If we can't mention sports games that arn't sims,  then whats the point to this thread?

"If we can't mention sports games that arn't sims,  then whats the point to this thread?"

Not Madden? Alright, fair enough. NCAA Football series. Just because you say "no sport simulation games", doesn't mean I'm going to not pick a sport-sim.

Tie between Madden and NCAA Football.

Madden

Well, this is going well  :-)

MADDE-- Oh wait.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMUTANT LEAGUE FOOTBALL!!!

well sorry my favorite sports games are the 2k sports basketball series wich happen to be sims

I can do better, but NFL Street? Then again, I hate playing it now, but man if I didn't love everything about it when it first came out. Well, if not, then NBA Street V3 since you can play as Mario and the gang on the Gamecube version, with what made NBA Street fun for me (need to try Homecourt again). SSX needs some sort of shout, too, so there ya go. Always wanted to try the Blitz games, too, so can't say what could be the definitive favorite sport game for me...
Ooh, the FIFA games may be my favorite though. I don't care what you say, mister, what with your "no sims" policy. It's still a game, dammit, and should be treated equally to the arcadier sport games!

John Madden Football!

Or is that the Madden who you were talking about?

MLB: The Show 2007, that game was perfect. But it's a sim :/

NHL 09 I don't care that its a sim, it's an amazing game.

NBA Showtime. 

Madden

Non-sim?  Uh, probably SSX 3 or one of the NBA Street games.

ESPN NFL 2k5.....hells yeah

"NBA Showtime.  "

Skate.
Does that count as a sports game..?

Mario Strikers was fun.

Tecmo Bowl, that game was incredible.

The first NFL Street was pretty good.

If not Madden, then I suppose Mario Strikers Charged. 

NBA: NBA 2KX (2K Sports)
NFL: NFL 2K5 (Sega Sports)
MLB: MLB XX THE SHOW (Sony)
NHL: NHL XX (EA)
FOOTBALL: PES 20XX (Konami)

Swing Away Golf is not golf... it's Pangya! I also played season 2.

MVP Baseball 2004

<3

SSX 3.  I spent so much time playing that game...

MLB the SHOW FTMFW!

NBA Jam SNES.

FIFA soccer games

Did you live in the closet in the 90s when every arcade was plagued withBOOM SHAKA LAKA NBA JAM "

I cant be bothered with sports games...  or Sport to be honest but now I have to say MADDEN.

NFL Blitz

Hell yah, fantasic game. "

Blades of Steel. There should be more hockey games with fighting minigames.

Actually, that gives me a great idea. You could make a baseball game where after a batter gets hit by a pitch the benches clear and you lead the team RTS style. Or like Dynasty Warriors.

NBA Jam is da bomb........ Giantbomb
