FIFA 08

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)

The nets looked to me to have improved slightly but it takes away all that anticipation of scoring when you know its not going to look or feel right when it crosses the line.

I agree that there are far more important aspects to consider but the major part of Football is scoring, if thats not right then the game falls away quite a bit.

Its about reward and minimising this reward reduces the satisfaction of scoring and thats really what peeps are getting at.
 
Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)

I don't understand this, either. The nets aren't great in FIFA but such a minor thing seems to disappoint so many people. As long as the game plays well then I dont really care about nets. PES has great nets but is so far behind FIFA in so many other ways that it makes the nets issue look insignificant.

it's like the sideline in madden not being reactionary like in 2k8

not to mention that although those PES2008 nets have great animations, that kind of shape is barely used by any stadiums nowdays...most stadiums (all EPL and 90% of la liga for example) use the regular shap that fifa is using and WE series used in current gen istallements.
for me the net shape has the same importancy as the net animations, as nets like pes2008 has takes away a lot of the EPL feeling for instance. its seems u are aways playing in italy.

They're basically higher-quality versions of the Leipzig videos. Nothing new but nice to see everything close-up.
 
Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)

PC demo 'this week'/

So Friday then? They don't usally release at the weekend do they?

I know PC is current gen but I'm dying for a PC fix. 07 is pretty decent anyway, and 08 should improve on that immensley.

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)

typical that you slag off all the good points he made about pes.

Excuse me? How do I "slag off all the good points he made about PES"? By saying "interesting comments about both games"? Mardy little bitch aren't you :roll:

Perhaps the word you're looking for is "ignore", I ignored all the good points he made about PES, as I ignored all the good points he made about Fifa, as I ignored all the bad points he made about both, seeing as most points are subjective and most points will be valid or not to each of us when we try the games it seems pretty pointless to focus on them.......
 
Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)

Wow I have to say from what I've seen Fifa 08 beats PES 2008 hands down. It looks like real footy.

If only I had a 360. Guess I'll have to stick with PES for another year. =(

@brunnoce

That's a great stadium list. Konami could learn from that.

I'm right in saying those stadiums were all in FIFA 07 on the PS2?

Damnit, why don't they release these things after usual work hours so I don't have to sit in work and read everyone's comments while I get more and more jealous {|=
