Hockey works well because it's more constent and even flowing as is soccer. Football never got defense right. Basketball probably could simulate an actual full time game closest in the timed sports but the differences between the skilled players to the others gets frustrating (maybe it's me). Baseball maybe it's me doesn't work

Hockey.
Although I remember I had NBA Live 98 or something and after adjusting the rules to what I thought they should be, I won at least one game 200-0.
f*** fouls.....fouls are now in.

Hockey (NHL 09/10 put it over the top for me) then football, American Football, Baseball and I don't play basketball games so I have nothing to judge by

What are you defining as a "Sim" Game? Like Football Manager/ Baseball Mogul or something like a regualr game like NHL 09 EA or Madden?

I think what the OP means is which sport is simulated most realistically via a video game. Which sport is closest to real life in its video game form. Hockey is probably the closest I've seen so far.

The MLB; The Show series (minus (what could have very well been my bugged copy of) MLB 09; The Show A.K.A. "Pitcher's Duel No-Funfest 09") has been the best sports game of the year for several years running now. I don't buy Madden on day 1, but I do get the new MLB; The Show games first chance I get.
Of course, I guess I am failing to acknowledge the 2K baseball games that sucked, got good, then sucked again.
I'll get MLB 10 The Show anyway, but I will be at Wal-Mart at midnight if the rumor that Grienke is the coverman is true.

I'm gonna say Hockey. Don't know why, as I really don't stay up to date with the NHL and stuff as much as I do like the NFL and NBA, but hockey games are surprisingly a lot more fun. I think I have NHL 07 or something like that, and it's surprisingly awesome.
I think the worst sports sim video game sport is probably auto racing. TOCA Race Driver 3 is probably the best one out of the series, yet there's flaws to it as well. I have both NHRA games for the PS2, and their AI is really odd as well. Don't get me started about EA's NASCAR series. The last good game they had was NASCAR 05: Chase for the Cup. Other than that, it's gone downhill every year.

I gotta go baseball. While sims will never get everything right... I personally think baseball is the best genre to do. Plus, it takes a fairly boring sport to watch (most of the time) and makes it a lot more fun. Finally, most are fairly easy to pick up and play.
I also think football is the hardest to do. There's so much crap going on on both sides of the balls that even a ton of plays won't match the real game.

The best racing sims are for PC, ala Nascar Racing 2003 Season and the god among men...Grand Prix Legends. |
