played both demo's and although i played FIFA much more because i downloaded it a day earlier,PES just destroys it.
FIFA is just sluggish,boring and has no soul.
thank GOD for demo's cause after the personality plus and pro passing promotion i was really getting both this year but hey i could've known it was just a load of crap.
every year they promise all the things they know they lack but for some strange reason with all their cash,they just can not fix this arcade game.
i say arcade because when every player on the field feels the same it can not be a simulation.
the graphics improved a little and i think MESSi's face looks a bit better in FIFA then PES this year.
the presentation as always just like food decorations are again nailed by FIFA,too bad the food doesn't taste the way it looks.
the ball is way too bouncy and floaty.
the most important thing i notice that is still there when i play FIFA is the feeling i get.
I feel absolutely nothing,no excitement,no pleasure when i string a few passes together and nothing even when i've just scored a goal that would make me jump out of my seat if scored in PES.
SO I'M SAYING IT AS POLITICALLY CORRECT AS I CAN JUST LIKE A FEW EVO-WEB MEMBERS ARE DOING IT FIFA IS JUST NOT FOR ME.
I m looking for a game that makes me want to watch all the replays of every tackle every trap,every miss,every defense splitting pass ,just because it looks and feels so real.
making me believe i am really controlling the best players in the world,giving me the feeling i just beat TERRY for a header,stopped MESSI from scoring a fantastic goal,winning the EPL with ARSENAL in style.
to play in BAL with my heroes against my villains.
this is what FIFA just can not do for me.
the PES demo felt strange at first seemed light and not heavy like i know it so my first 2 games made me wonder if they f***d it up.
but the passes started coming together in my third game and i was getting the hand on things,was understanding why it felt so light,it was the total freedom i was reading about on every PES fansite for a while now and boy is it noticeable.
dribbling is very loose and free but that's perfect because you don't have to break the controller to avoid a tackle,take that extra step to beat the defender it just feels fantastic
passing.
if you see the pass you can try it and the outcome relies on you and the player you are controlling.
long or short it doesn't matter it can be done.
unlike FIFA, PES did all it promised and if you can't feel it well don't force it maybe PES isn't for you.
defending.
well that is harder cause all this freedom makes the choices the attacker has difficult to predict so just like the real game defending is an art but i'm doing a good job if i do say so myself.
shooting.
now here is the strange part.
it feels light and some shots don't go in like i would like them to so here's the part i want to check out a little more before saying i like it or not.
the graphics are better and the players look great.
well that's what i think, so no FIFA for me this year.
