For nearly two decades, my childhood obsession with professional football spilled into the virtual realm. I devoured video games like NES Play Action Football, Tom Landry Strategy Football, Madden 95, NFL Quarterback Club 98 and NFL 2K.
Before the technology caught up, I would meticulously write down statistics on lined notebook paper after each game so I could compare my season totals with N.F.L. records. One New Year’s Eve, I played NFL Blitz 2000 with friends for eight consecutive hours.
Sports video games are emotionally powerful, and many people can summon memories at the mention of a cherished title: NHL 94. Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! NBA Jam. Forza Horizon 5. MVP Baseball 2005. Rocket League.
So I want to know, what is your favorite sports video game of all time?
