The Top 15 Sports Games of 2009

#1: UFC 2009: Undisputed
From day one, UFC 2009 Undisputed has completely taken over the GamePro offices. The editors have been playing it non-stop; is it any wonder why it was chosen as the Game of the Month in our July issue? Its addicting and satisfying gameplay has kept the editors completely glued to the office TV and has lead to a lot of heated inter-office showdowns.
What the GamePros love the most is the realism and the attention to detail. Fighters look and move just like their real-life counterparts and and blood realistically splatters after crushing blows. The fighting system is also superb and does a great job of replicating the three discrete stages of an MMA fight-striking, standing clinch and ground.
And unlike most sports games where canned audio is the norm, Undisputed has some great in-game commentary provided by Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan that is so authentic, it makes you feel like you're experiencing a real payper- view match.
In a year saturated with great sports titles across all platforms, UFC 2009 Undisputed slugged its way past its franchise's previous problems to claim the top spot in our countdown. THQ and Yukes have created a truly impressive game that makes it difficult for gamers to put down the controller.

If you get the magazine, there's a sidebar with the Top 5 upcoming games of 2009 (one's that aren't out yet) and FIFA 10 is in it
