||''[[FIFA Soccer]]''||''Pro Evolution Soccer''||Long running soccer game series||The samurai vs. knight of soccer games. Since their debut in the middle 90's, both series are a constant source of [[Fandom Rivalry]].||So far the FIFA series is usually more acclaimed than PES (with help of the real FIFA organization that gave it their official seal of approval).
||''[[Kane and Lynch]]''||''[[Army of Two]]''||Gritty, co-op centric [[Third Person Shooter]] [[Follow the Leader|cashing in]] on ''[[Gears of War]]''. The sequel of both centers around the protagonists trying to escape Shangai after a job goes south.|| ''Army of Two'' takes itself far less seriously. || Neither series are huge critical successes, but both ''[[Army of Two]]'' and its sequel had a somewhat more positive reception and sold better.||
||''[[Duke Nukem]]''||''[[Serious Sam]]''||Over-the-top first person shooters with a one-liner-spewing [[Rated MforM for Manly|macho protagonist]] fighting off an alien invasion||Serious Sam was inspired by and originally based off Duke himself, but his games would include many [[Take That|Take Thats]] towards Duke, particularly the at-the-time unreleased ''[[Duke Nukem Forever (Video Game)|Duke Nukem Forever]]''.||Duke Nukem is by far the more well-known name among gamers, but ''[[Duke Nukem Forever (Video Game)|Duke Nukem Forever]]'', despite selling better than ''Serious Sam 3'', received poor reviews from both old fans and new gamers, while ''Sam 3'' was generally better-received, particularly for sticking to the classic formula better.||
||''[[NHL Hockey]]''||''NHL 2K''||Realistic hockey simulations|| ||Probably NHL Hockey. 2K Sports haven't made a hockey game since NHL 2K11, and that was a Wii-exclusive title, even.||
||''[[Lord of Arcana]]''||''[[Gods Eater Burst]]''||Multiplayer [[Action Adventure]] games on [[PSP]]||Both games take cues from the ''[[Monster Hunter]]'' series, but ''Gods Eater'''s inspiration seems to show much more clearly.||''Gods Eater Burst'' had a better critical and commercial reception, though both games have upcoming sequels.
