Another year, another roster update. Or so the conventional wisdom goes when it comes to EA Sports games. And there is some truth in that stereotype. The sports gaming monolith does have a habit of giving us more of the same old, same old every year, throwing in just enough fresh glitz like hot rookies and cool reflective helmets to keep Joe Sixpack plunking down his $50 for another go. At the same time, the company never wants to go too far and create the ultimate football, soccer, basketball, or hockey game, because then the devs have to wonder what they’ll do next year. So, one step up, half a step back. Year after year.
