I tried searching this forum for simmilar thread but couldn't find any. Sorry if this topic is already elaborated.
I wonder how many of you have played both PES and WE and what would be your impressions?
I prefer WE. For many reasons.
). So my opinion is based on that experience.
I would like to know if any of you think the same? Oposite?

I prefer WE. For many reasons.
- It has less bugs.
- It is a bit slower but animations are smoother and this adds a lot to the reality of the game. (Wallcot or other super fast players do not perform sudden "warp jumps" with the ball over the oponents, if you know what I mean)
- Attackers do not have such huge advantage over defenders as in PES. Mainly due to the fact that defenders in WE aren't so dumb. They do not fall out of play as soon as you press X and R1, just by runnig forward into empty space or tackling the air around striker never touching him or the ball.
- Sliding tackles are more accurate.
- Goal keepers are smarter too. They don't stand and watch the ball which is 2 inches from their feet and then go for it scoring own goal or pushing it to the oponent striker. Those sort of actions are rarely seen on WE. Overall goalies reactions are better too.
- Being slower than PES, WE requires less anticipation of the oponent moves while defending.
- Much, much less scoring from idiotic situations in the box and much much less own goals in WE than in PES.
- Less unwanted sliding tackles from the players controlled by COM. And thus less penalties, of course.
- Defensive line moves are more coherent. 3 or 4 players do not run to cover the flanks leaving box empty as it happens in PES. Players cover each other better when defending. So it's not as frequent as on PES that when one of your players is dribled by the oponent the other is already gone in the wrong direction, leaving open space to your goal.
- Dribling is more accurate. Though 1 on 1 situations are not so much in favor of the attackers.
- Overall reaction of the players is kind of better. They better respond to commands and tend to "memorise" less commands because they execute them in a timely manner. Less "free will" if I may say. (You know, when you want to shoot, clear or pass and player does one or two steps more before executing your command or simply does it with certain delay.)
- Scoring is harder then in PES, definately. (Me and a friend switched to PES after playing WE for a week and first few games ended with 8+ goals, while in WE it was hardly over 2 goals per match)
- Overall look&feel is more real and more playable due to the above stated. It all comes more to your skills and tactis than to the team that you choose. It is a bit slower than PES, though.
