View Full Version : Should Konami give up on commentary?
Lets face it, its rubbish and takes up shed loads of disc space. i just turn it off because its so crap. what do you think? is it really that important to the overall atmosphere of the game? i think it'd be so much better to just have really great crowd noise than comemtary because even on fifa it can be a bit rubbish. i think they should give up on it

No, that wuld be pretty stupid.
Wahts the point of havin no commentary, that wuld just bring the game a whole lot down
i have the commentary turned off anyway. If they did get rid of it they'd have to make the crowd noises and other atmospheric effects 10 times better to compensate.
i personally hate the commentary, its a good idea but its repettative and it lags. i think crowd noise, chants and general atmosheric sounds would do me, i always end up turning off the commentary as it is infact pretty shite.

They used to have no commentary in three lions and it seemed to work ok, i didn't really miss it even though the other sounds were pretty shite.

just turn on commentary with a different language everytime and you won't feel bored :rolleyes:
I don't think the commentary is an important part of the game, I never have it onbut like Gedo says sometimes the foreign commentary is funny

It would be a good thing if PES or WE had a way BETTER commentary. I don`t know why, but it seems like PES/WE commentary gets almost the same every year, just like FIFA gameplay does. Having a good commentary brings a.) realism to the game, b.) excitement (something that spanish commentators do best) etc. but since our commentary sucks its better if we keep it off. FIFA`s commentary is brilliant, I wouldn`t mind having it in PE/WE games. Or, when you watch Champions League on ESPN 2 , there is a guy Tommy Smith possibly the best football analyst alive.

I really like Japanese commentary tho.. Ever since I played WE7 I got hooked.
i have some brilliant commentary because i do it myself. oh yes :D
" Vieri runs down the right hand side he cuts in with brilliant control,strength and balance to easily slip around roberto carlos, its still veri, vieri, VIERI, VIERI!!! F***ing hell you fat piece of sh** how you miss that. :)
it works for me, you try it.
I keep it on, beacause it brings realsim to the match
I keep it on mainly becuase it sounds 'incomplete' without it. If they are going to keep it in then they must do something about it. Maybe more phrases, increased vocab or some better way of linking words or using team names more often. Rather than the shoddy "The defending team clears the ball" Along them lines. And also "it's in.................. Aragon........................ ........... they have 5 now............... Saha...................he's got 2 now!"
Aragon? isnt he in lord of the rings? :p
Tis, yes. Also the superb name PES came up for Man Utd. Similair, me thinks...... :)
lol... how creative... by the way.. the commentator sounds ok.. but the shit he sez dont make sense at all... i clear the ball as far as i cud that it mite reach the opponents goalie and the commentator still says i didnt clear it far! seriously gota do somethin there.. well i do find the jap commentator better coz i dont understand a friggin word he sez! :D

hahaha imagine yourself playing PES or WE and have yourself commentate..instead of real commentators..lol
Personally, commentary doesnt bother me as i turn it off. I'm not arsed about the 'TV style' presentation of a football game. I would happily do without it in return for good quality sound effects with loud, pasionate, life-like crowd chants and reactions to the match events. I would rather imagine that i am in the stadium watching the game rather than watching it on TV. And anyway, i grew up playing games like SWOS which was before the time of in-game commentary, but had good SFX.
crowds singin, chants so loud and clear... dolby system or watever good sound system... my heart beetin so fast... shit... who cares bout commentary?! gotta have some quality surround system... and score!!! can u hear that?? oh my god id jump out of the window!! :D

Couldn't have put it better myself.
that's 1 good point about FIFA, but a patched WE/PES game is complete! The sounds aren't yet brilliant, but better. But the drum sound when the ball is kicked takes the piss!
id like to see the sounds that are used in cm 03/04, the sounds on there go so well with the epl, put into pes

Exactly!!! No commentary, just amazing sound. As someone else said, I'd rather it be like I'm in the stadium watching the match rather than watching it on TV. No commentary, and fantastic sounds would beat ANYTHING!!

Yeah, I agree with that, the CM croud sound affects are great.
And u culd have different crowd atmosphere sounds like they do in CM, eg- lots of cheers in England, roars in SPain
by the way... no hard feelings.. heh but wats cm? and is it good? does it have anythin to do with we or somethin?
im glad you're being sarcastic
but just incase you're not, cm = championship manager

well axually im not :rolleyes: thx 4 tellin me, is it good? is it like those other manager games?
the best one money can buy, until football manager comes out
wat bout the games tho? 3d? 2d?
2d, either just watching commentary text boxes or a top-down 2d rendition of the match
Lami is in Dubai lads, they may not have Championship manager out there.

why wouldn't there be?
well anyways i got TCM but i don't know is it better or worse ( it's an EA game so i should expect the worst )
You tell me Gedo. Lami had never heard of Championship Manager so something must be amiss in Dubai.

Dubai is maybe the best commercial place in the arab region it has everything and all people from around the world come to shop from it, i just thought that they should have it that's all, i even bought my mobile phone from there cause it was like 40 $ less or something
