Muzza you have to play manual for weeks before you really get into it. It's so good when you do though. I bury most one on ones, and score some screamers too. It's the passing where the joy lies though, picking out fancy throughballs and getting the accuracy bang on in a one-touch passing...

Well said jenice. If you paly Fifa with the d-pad then you're missing about 95 percent of the greatness of the game. I dumped the d-pad immediately when switching to Fifa, i knew i had to. it took time to adjust to the analog stick but it was the greatest video gaming decision i ever made to...

You playing all manual yet Muzza? I've been playing shitloads for 3-4 months and it's still holding my attention because i've still got so much to master. Gradually i'm timing my use of the trick stick better, and pace control. I'm pulling off more and more inticate moves with the manual...

I've only played 4 online games on it and they were all complete disasters. Won 2 and lost 2 but they reminded me more of Star Trek than football. Beam me up Scotty!

How to tell if you're a sad act who is bitter because he loses at a game he shouldn't be playing online anyway because it's shit. 1) You write posts something like this: "1 - You go straight for "Barca, Inter, Man U, Brazil, Argentina" in your "Used Teams" and they are all Protected and...

I haven't seen you online in ages though dude. You offered after the United game the other week. I got home from work at 10:45 your time, went straight on and you weren't online. Since then there's been no contact. I'm not having a go or anything anyway, just thought i'd try my luck to avoid...

I had a routine for this on 2008. If the players arrow is yellow or red leave them. If their arrow is green, blue or purple and their fatigue is under 20, regulate them. If their fatigue is over 20 and they're green leave them. If their fatigue is over 20 and their arrow is blue or purple...

It seems to be dying a slow death. Keyser has apparently sack-arged, so can i get a bye please?

I finally converted my best mate back in England over the weekend. I've been trying for months but he was so diehard Pro Evo (like myself, but i was less of a fanboy) i just couldn't pull it off. He bought it, played it for a couple of hours and fucked it off. Then i got him to play online...

Fair enough, good on ya.

"Monitor" gives it away that you were playing Fifa on the PC, which apparently is infinitely inferior to the console version. The console version is undeniably the closest thing to "real" football we've ever been presented with, and quite the opposite to you, i still feel like i've ony...

Obviously you don't have the same passion for football as other people the Dale. As good as games like COD are, they are very limited when it comes to memorable moments. PES of the past, and now Fifa, offer special moments and a chance to recreate what you see in the professional game. I'm...

Pro Evo never used to get boring or require a rest. Me and my mate splayed it every single day pretty much for around 6-7 years. ANd now i do the same with Fifa 09. The truth is that PES09 is just not good enough to hold your interest over a sustained period.

Look at all these people seeing the light. Until Pro Evo has a "manual" system like Fifa it is dead and buried. Playing all manual on world class difficulty on Fifa is the best video gaming experience ever, i gag for it. The freedom of where you put the ball (not just to feet all the time)...

ISS deluxe on the SNES is better than this year's version, better AI.

Keyser when will you next be online for the 2nd leg? I'm away this weekend but will try and get on my father-in-law's PS to play you. I may be under the username MollyMay (the name of the in-law's dog).

The question is though, can a good manual system be combined with great response times? Think about it, you need time between when you press the button and the action takes place to aim it. If it happens in an instant it will be hard to kick the ball in any other direction than that which the...

I don't care, i want PES to have a new engine that combines the old one with that of Fifa. The responsiveness of Pro Evo mixed with the freedom of Fifa would be beautiful.

I'm in full agreement with this mate. I haven't played Fifa since World Cup 1998 until this year, but i think it's safe to assume that other than 08, it's been shit. This worries me because EA's tendency to completely overhaul the intricate controls and game engine on a regular basis may end...

Pro Evo is weak because of it's lack of options in where you hit long balls, crosses, ground passes, lofted through balls etc. If they can come up with a good manual system it would be a massive step in the right direction. The freedom caused by this would in many ways require loads of extra...
