Teams actually get promoted and relegated into different leagues over here so it's nowhere near as static as US sports. For example, a team can be in the premier league with fantastic players in 2012, and by 2014, be 2 tiers down with a massively reduced budget and a completely different squad. It means that older iterations are completely obsolete as far as being realistic within a year or two.
Also helps that EA switch off online servers pretty quickly meaning if you aren't on the latest or next to most recent game, you don't have online play, even if there was still a community there for it.
As for minimal upgrades, there were actually some very substantial changes from the first 360 to the last 360 FIFAs. Even the Vita one is based on 2011 and plays completely different to either FIFA 13 or FIFA 14 on the main consoles.
You've also got the PS4/XBONE upgrade versions this year. Getting a PS4 was the reason I went for FIFA 14. I won't buy one now until FIFA 16 or FIFA 17 most likely. But you do get a lot of rotations and people buying PS4/XBONE later next yer will most likely grab FIFA 15 for that even if they already had FIFA 14 this year on PS3/360.
