Sadly Americans reading this won't know the beauty of a casual game of FIFA in an afternoon, but obviously the reverse is true for the rest of us and Madden. The replayability of adding in any sports title is always going to be predicated on a love for the activity itself, and that alone takes many gamers out of the running when comparing the love of such a thing with anything else on this list. However FIFA over in England has still become something of a social institution - a bonding ritual forged in the fires of friend-circles the country over even for those who don't play in real life. Used to settle debates (or start them) as well as just being 'that game' that is the go-to time-killer for workspaces luckily enough to have consoles or generation-spanning households in need of a title to get the parents involved in something other than Call of Duty, FIFA has reigned supreme ever since taking the crown from Pro Evolution Soccer in 2008. Madden on the other hand is the American equivalent of such a game, yet aside from more and more fans becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the amount of new mechanics or content to justify forking out for a new instalment, they're still lapped up in their millions. Replay it specifically for: That sense of competition inherent to multiplayer sports titles that can never be replicated in any work of fiction.
