ABSOLUTE RUBBISH
I have been a PES fan for a long time but after this latest offering I will never play this RUBBISH game again. First off the frame rate is too slow and the screen even freezes when the goal mouth is full of players. Online is not worth bothering about, lots of lag and I mean LOTS of lag. Konami in November 2007 have said they are trying to fix this problem and have even made a patch which you must download before you can play online. Does it work? NO! its helped with lagging offline, not by much, but online its still the same rubbish and no I have not got a slow broadband connection.. I as well as many others have tried to email Konami but they don't reply and the online gaming is still a complete load of crap. Avoid this game at all costs!!!
What makes Pro better than Fifa? Its all in the gameplay dear fellow.....
First, I am a huge fan of both of fifa and pro. Both have their weaknesses and both have their strenghs. For me, fifas graphics meant little, it was more the brand image that appealed, the real team names for example. Pro on the other hand has the gameplay.
It depends on what you want doesnt it? Over the years fifa has improved a lot gameplay wise while pro has subtly changed its formula by perfecting their through balls and freekicks.
And well? I think Pro is just about worth buying over fifa due to the fact when you play it, it "feels" more like a real match.
For example. Pro is much more a team game. You have to be a lot more patient with your play. The goals arent as easy to come by and you have to work for your goals.
I find the diving feature in pro rather amusing :) For example I was playing in a match against france and it was 2:2. I run into the box and dive like a olympic swimmer! What happens? Pelenty! Good fun and clearly annoys your mates whEn you show them the reply of you diving!
I am not anti fifa at all. In fact if you have kids id recommend you get that game, as they will love the graphics and skill tricksets. It is just that when you play pro, you know your playing a proper game of football, and not a "the idiots guide" to it.
Massively Over-rated.
Passing engine extremely flawed, makes for unjoyable experience to the extent that it renders the likes of arsenal pointless as the game depends purely upon the running skills of c.ronaldo and rooney.
Diving engine, employed to trick referees makes for flawed decisions, especially when one doesnt dive. The referee tells an offside to the accuracy of a pixel, yet fails to give a foul for a blatant slide, and gives fouls for the most invisible of touches.
World player of the year, and Ballon D'or winner Kaka's stats are terribly under-rated, with one stat above 90. Arsenal are extremely poor in this game, if you want to play the beautiful game look elsewhere.
Apart from such issues as the most horrific of passing engines (perhaps 5/10 passes go where intended) it is a good game. However, limiting factors such as a maximum of 20 saved replays for a game supposidly utilising an xbox hard drive of at least 20gb (speachlessly and completely inexplicably retarded) does pull this game down to the depths of disasterous.
how IGN ever gave it a 90+ score i'll never know, perhaps because they benefit from in game advertising.....
