lol ok

Good point, you're right. Nintendo waited over 20 years before making a true successor to Super Mario World, and when they did, the game was fresh and original, with great level design and new gameplay elements.

EA, on the other hand--

What did you expect EA to do? Change the way Football is played?

Since the game requires so little effort, they could just, y'know, not charge $60 for it. There's no reason most EA Sports games can't just be a $10 patch of last year's game. "Oh, I see you bought Madden '10 last year. Would you like to update to Madden '11 for $9.99?"

I am sure they need to renew their license with the NFL every 4 years or so. They also need to pay each player in order to use their name in game (Which is why there are no names in college football titles), logos, etc...

It isn't exactly a roster update and nothing more. Plus, while the changes are sometimes subtle, there usually are changes made, whether it be in the tackling system or running system.
