Re: PES 2009 News Discussion Etc. (STRICTLY NO FIFA TALK OR POLITICAL CHAT)
OK I've now got both games, and enjoy both, FIFA plays some lovely football, but little things like you can't beat a man with some pace or a normal left to right move annoys me, and the fact you can't change stats I think is the biggest gripe I have with it.
I bought PES on friday for PS3 had played it on PC on wed and thur, and enjoyed it, much better than 2008, become a legend mode is ace really like it alot more than Be a Pro, but now that I'm playing it on PS3 I don't feel it's as good, the lighting has been improved but maybe too much that it looks like harsh light.
Why can't players like Ronaldo/Messi etc run away from defender once they get in front they always find a way back.
I just listened to the podcast on WENB and I can't argue with what they are saying, FIFA is good game, and I hate to believe that Konami aren't that bothered with being a better footballing game anymore just doesn't sit right with me, but it's true, the gameplay hasn't changed since PES3, it's not free flowing, i still have a goal saved from PES5 when I was Lille, a lovely fast 10 pass move, which I just don't fell I could do on PES2009.
PES is my game though, I've tried to play FIFA but there's too many things that annoy me, and apart from playing online, which I'm not to bothered by, I find there's not alot to do on it. The Manager mode is limited, and has flaws like you sign someone but can't change their squad number.
The Master league is still a better option, it's integrates domestic and european football, same the layout is still only 4 leagues.
Least on PES you can make the game look and now sound how you want, on FIFA although the have all the fancy licenses, why do the numbers on the back of the Lille kit look absolutely HUGE, and alot of the fonts for the names are wrong and look far too big, Kits can look spot on with PES, people like myself who change stats can make the game feel better, you can't even make missing players in FIFA, or improve players they rated wrongly.
Not sure why i've written all this year, just feeling a bit frustrated with both games.
FIFA has the gameplay nearly spot on, PES is stuck in 2003, but the things that keep you playing e.g season modes, PES has better than FIFA, editing the game to make it look better, PES has won this aswell.
So PES can look better editing wise and there is more to do, just a shame it's not as nice gameplay wise to do them
