Initially it made a lot of sense though. The differences between each fifa version between the first one and 2003 were massive with each iteration. But as the graphics got better and better and the gameplay was more or less settled, it became less sensible to have a new edition each year. After fifa 2003 there were noticeably less differences between the iterations.
That cycle was artificially squeezed into one year though.
If we’re staying in the area of games that don’t rely on story or lots of new manually crafted environments, a game like, say, SimCity could have had a minor update and be released slightly better every year. That didn’t happen, it got 3 games in ten years despite being quite popular.
