I don't like sports games just because I don't like sports. Never have. I miss the Super Bowl nearly every year, that's how "un-into" it I am.
Y do people hate sports games?

I like them, especially the ESPN series on PS2 without forgetting Konami's ISS.

I like sports games, but never in single player mode. You must have a group of friends to run circles around with your pumped up character. What I hate is that they get outdated faster than a new Dell PC. NFL 2K, 2K1, 2K2... Madden 95, 96, 97... 2186... If there was only a way that you didn't have to buy the new version if you wanted the new roster. But, even that, you can easy make your own roster if you want a new one that badly... that's why I basically have one of every sports type. Similation type sports games, all of them in general, have little to no true replay value. I mean, football is still football. We have at least a zillion games based on the SAME GAME. Anyway, I'm more into simulation sports games rather than the Midway brand of arcade sports games. Fun for a bit, I tire of them quickly. Unlocking secret characters loses its shine rather fast. Rental worthy.BOOMSHAKALAKA!!!!I love the Tony Halk series, though I haven't played Underground. I actually prefer Tony Hawk 3 to TH4. It still retains the classic layout of the series, has missions that are physically possible and do not get redundant (TH4: get the 25 mid-air fragments of stupid quirky object in 30 seconds), and still has the revert. I think there should be a book in the bible about the holy Revert. Snowboarding games either get boring or too frustrating. All of them are only worth a rental. Tops.Am I missing something?

I think because it's much better if you actually play them instead of playin them with only your fingers. LOL Besides, yes, they seems to be all same. I guess it depends. Mainly guys likes to play sport games. including skateboard. To me, I don't understand what's so good about it, but oh well.

Well, what I tend to see in sports games is that all they do is take the same game, update some player stats, and sell it with a new year attached to it.

Sports are meant to be actually played by real people. Slapping it into game format just shows how lazy some people can be. I's rather be playing the sport than slapping my big butt on the couch and playing it on a console. Yes.. Its not likely that you'll be playing for the Stanley Cup.. But its really not meant to be. I'd say sports should an outdoor thing.. besides cutting your lawn.. Who goes out and does anything but go for coffee and play video games?? lol

My reason for not liking sports games is because they tend not to be as interesting as the other genres for games. I mean I enjoy a little here and there but they are definitely the least played genre for me.

Sport games are starting to run out of things to add on. Now that online play is introduced, you can update rosters. Unless there's something really innovative in the game, most people won't purchase it.

I don't like real sports games like Madden and NBA Live because frist of all, I suck horribly at them and second, why waste your time playing football and basketball in your living room when you can actually go outside 
and play the games yourself. The sports games I like are games like Tony Hawk and Amped 2.
