Supporting a game after launch is the most important aspect for any sports game these days. It's imperative on a base level in terms of updating rosters to ensure the sport people are watching on TV is the same as the one they're playing on their consoles or PCs. But beyond that, improving what's wrong while also adding something new to experience is the new expectation. In terms of post-launch support, there were lots of solid efforts by sports game developers this past year. In a lot of ways, it felt like developers started to figure out the best ways to make an impact, and moving forward this category should become even more competitive.

as far as Roster updates go. Hands down 2K. The Madden ones are great, but the window the devs have to fix them is way bigger. 2K releases roster updates everyday!

I would include The Golf Club in the mix..!

Any developer that celebrates a "post product launch support" award should be fired immediately. When did it become a good thing to release a flawed product, then fix it later. 2K16 was released with items that didnt work on day 1 and now the 2K Devs get credit for fixing their mistakes. This must be a joke..

I don't think 2K should not even be in the conversation THIS year. The sales/profit they have made warrants more support than they have given,..meanwhile, TGC, UFC and NBA Live have been much more consistent, and have made much less money combined while doing so.
