See, if the graphics looked like they do there, I would have nothing but praise for them. Perhaps the final build looks like that, who knows. Would be nice!
That's not strictly true though, it is possible for a game to be developed for a platform and then tweaked to have a slight edge on another (I think PES3/4/5/6 were developed for PS2 but were better on PC).
Ahem...is that...is that 3D GRASS??????????????????
COULD IT BE POSSIBLE? 3D GRASS?!
EDIT - Even though, the green colour palette used for the grass is still pretty much current-gen...
Yeah, 3D grass which they already have and dummies on the training ground. They must be shitting it. :lol: Seriously though, the facial expressions look great. That's one thing they'll almost definitely have over EA.
I'll go into a bit more detail actually, just in-case it interests anyone.
The very first FIFA on 360 had 3D grass all the time, and the framerate was utterly disgraceful. How the game passed testing and Microsoft certification I will never know. So in the next one it was abandoned for the usual flat grass, and then I think it was the one after that mixed and matched. I forget - all of the FIFAs on 360 have been nothing much to remember apart from the last two, 07 and UEFA, which have had totally new and rewritten engines (something EA bragged about for ten years and never actually did). I can't even remember the "amazing facial expressions" you mention, actually. Seems crazy considering the latest one doesn't seem to have them!They will be concerned I'm sure, but bear in mind that UEFA actually had the same thing (where if you tried to go down the wing too many times, they would start blocking you off), so it's not actually new.
It all depends on how they implement it, though. It was great in UEFA but sometimes you could trick the players into moving out of their positions a bit too easily, leaving a nice big gap for you. If Konami nail it then yeah, EA will be worried - but like I say, they'll be worried anyway. PES has outsold FIFA in the UK before now.
