fifa back then was laughable, pathetic, unplayable...ugly looking. The list goes on.
Anybody with an Xbox 360 who wants a laugh should try downloading the FIFA 06 World Cup demo. I did yesterday (I love retro), and I was gobsmacked at how totally and utterly awful the game was, nothing close to football.Agreed 100%...
Speaking about old games i am preparing a patch for PES 3, it was my favorite of the series (the first with the actual master league, with some small differences, for example was the last one without player grouth) just for fun, i will make a 2009/2010 version, im not yet sure if i will publish it or not, i dont think too many players wants to play with it
Sorry for the OFF-Topic
I would adore that, I've still got PES3 on both PS2 and PC.
Having said that, I never patched it with either of them, cause I could never figure out how to apply a full patch.
Surely you'd need all the tools from back then to implement it?
Just found this on gaming access......PES 2010: Concerns about Online Play
Hmm, pesgaming reports concerns about the online play. Nothing has been said about the 'teleporting issue' of PES 2010. I think they want us to believe that the game is going to be amazing, but has Konami addressed the main problems from previous titles like mulitplayer teleporting? As you can see in this article by Pesgaming, I am not the only one concerned about this:
"What can I say about the range of comments left to the playtest last week? One thing is for certain: Konami seem to be damned if they do, and damned if they don’t. Had Konami not held this early playtest for the likes of us, then we would not have known how the game was progressing, and more importantly, we would not have been able to feed back into the development process. What many people need to understand is that up until the tail end of last year, we haven’t had avenues for communicating with Konami. We have had frustrations with the series for years, but have never really been able to get this across to Konami formally, and know that it has been taken into consideration by the people who count there.
Konami have acknowledged that we have a stake in the game, and that our voices need to be heard for the series to advance. I still maintain that we need to give them a 2 year period to be able to judge them fully. We need to be patient with the efforts that are being made. Writing Konami off this early won’t help anyone. The game that will be released in October will be very different from the last two years - mark my words. It may not be as advanced as many of us would like, but there will be enough in the game to keep us very involved.
I know the game will be fun to play, and have that ‘just one more game’ feel to it that it is famed for.
The people leaving comments about this being the same old story from Konami need to understand that it isn’t easy to go from a culture of working in an insular fashion, to opening the process out to include groups such as us. Any one of you try to change how you work and see how you get on.
I know I have expressed dissapointment at some old bugbears still being present, but crucially there is still time for some of them to be fixed. What I would like you guys to do is to keep faith. I have no problems standing up for Konami right now. We are an independent site, and yes we now have formal affiliations with Konami, but I strongly feel that by forming strong bonds with them, PES can go from strength to strength. A couple of weeks ago I said the following list will be the litmus test for whether PES2010 is a success in my eyes:
a game engine that is a simulation of the sport, which allows us to tailor it to our own style.
increased and improved player animations for dribbling, performing tricks and shooting
a return to the control system of PES6 which allows you to use the right analog stick to perform tricks
fully functional online play, with no more lag issues for ANYONE! Online play is a massive feature for many of us, and if this feature fails, then Konami are as good as advertising FIFA ‘10 for EA.
Before i became a pc fan my first game of footie was played on a 3do console (remember them?) and the game was fifa international soccer, i still laugh at how you could shoot from your own area and the ball would travel towards the opponents goal like it had been shot from a cannon they were the days when fifa was made by ice hockey loving canadians. Oh and yeah they didnt have real player names back then.
I also noticed that the PES Editing forum has over 5 times as many posts as any other sub-forum on the site
They have the licence for the Europa League though I don't think that gives them the teams in it, or does it?...
That article doesn't make PES sound promising.
Seems a waste if they could not get more teams in. They had additional teams that got used for the Champions League mode in PES 2009 so "you would think" that would be the case regarding Europa League.
The teams do need a shake up in PES, i mean Helsinki, AIK, etc no disrepect to them but who really goes them or plays with them?
They could have added more "bigger" named teams or added the Swedish League, Portuguese League etc
Agreed I'm disappointed no one has got more lower league licenced teams in TBH, especially FIFA.
I'm still hoping PES have loads of slots for us to edit and the ability to add up to four divisions though I very much doubt it...
That article doesn't make PES sound promising.
I was talking a friend who is also a game developer, he told me that a games such as PES2009 which was "broken" in so many aspects cannot be turned around in 12 months, even with a development team of 200 it would take around 2-3 years to rewrite the whole game.
He thinks that PES2010 will be an improvement on PES2009 and we will see Konami finally get the game on track but it could be PES2012 before you see the game really hit the heights, the example he gave me was FIFA 07 which finally saw EA start to look at going down the simulation route, it then has take 2 years and three iterations (Champions League, FIFA 08 & FIFA 09) to get FIFA to truly playable level.
I would love for PES to hit the heights again and hopefully PES2010 can get Konami back on track, but people who are expecting this to be the all conquering PES of the past maybe in for a shock.
The one thing that's really annoyed me about the next-gen games (and to an extent I think it's been in the PS2 games as well but I can't fully remember), is when you first touch the ball and your player steps over it and does a full turn before touching it.
It's so clumsy to look at and slows the game down, and it happens every five seconds so the game you watch doesn't look fluid at all.
But that'd be down to changing the animations probably.
It depends if it's Konami's intention to rewrite the whole game. I don't think PES2009 is completely broken and I'm not so sure the game needs to be re-written from the ground up. Personally I think PES2009 could have been a considerably better game if only the animations were much improved and more plentiful, and if the gameplay mechanics for passing/shooting/tackling were tweaked.
Another Winning EleveN Blog site tagged PES2010 as 'the revolution rather than evolution' but this is clearly bullshit. PES has always gently evolved year on year and I expect the current game engine to be the base for the foreseable future. As I said, this may not be a bad thing because we have yet to see it at it's full potential.
Also on the point about Fifa: you could say Fifa was more broken 4 or 5 years ago than PES is now. Maybe I'm being too optimistic but I think Konami know what they need to do to get PES back on track, and the experience gained from creating the best football games over the last decade doesn't disappear overnight. I just think Konami were caught short with the manpower required to push PES forward on next-gen consoles and that is complete incompetence on their part.
Emlyn Hughes International Soccer on C64 was probably the best soccer game ever created relative to the hardware available
if u think that was 20 YEARS ago, it's disappointing the little progresses we made in terms of pure gameplay
