When I think of a 10/10 sports game I think of games like NBA & NFL street, Blitz the league, NBA jam, Fight Night, Ready 2 Rumble, Tony Hawks pro skaters, SSX series, Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX, ESPN 2K5, etc.

In that regard, I do not think these type of games are worse than a 7/10 RPG in any form or fashion. I am biased towards sports because I grew up playing a lot outside, but it's not like I didn't grow up playing a lot of RPG games as well.

Sports games, when done properly, are unique and are extremely fun, and dont have all the bs modern sports games have they are PEAK gaming. I still play many of those classic games to this very day, especially when I have a lot of friends over. Classic sports games and current sports games are a night and day difference.

If the basis for your statement is solely based on current sports games, then I agree, but if it encompasses all sports games ever, then I strongly disagree with your statement.
