Sports Games
Sports games are always an excellent addition to any video game collection. They see constant play and are nearly always multiplayer. Their appeal to a broad audience brings in a fair number of patrons we wouldn't see otherwise, as well as being accessible to all ages.

Madden 18 is a competitive/cooperative sports game that has come a long way from the original game John Madden Football. There’s the typical game where you can play against your friends with all the different football teams. There is a new game mode called “Longshot”, where players take on the role of a fictional would-be quarterback character. Eventually new stories for this game mode will be released.
