I've just played my first online games on PES2008 on the PS2 - I haven't played online for about 18 months for various reasons, since about when PES6 came out.
Two to two and a half years ago I used to play PES5 Online on the PS2 and had no or few problems with it. The half that you were hosting ran perfectly and the half the opposition hosted ran with usually very little lag, provided their arrows were green "a good connection". Generally very good - full marks to PES5 Online
My games just now on PES2008 were appalling in comparison, both halves were laggy as hell and the ball was springing up everywhere! Screen jerky and I felt seasick after just 2 games. After equalising to make it 1-1 my opponent kicked off, the screen went still and next thing I know the ball is in the back of my net for 2-1! Unbeliivably frustrating!
Have they changed the method of hosting since the days of PES5, it seems such a backwards step? My internet connection hasn't changed at all - 4MB which used to be 3 Star Green on PES5.
Has anyone else had these problems at all? How does PES2008 Online on the PS3 compare (getting a PS3 soon).
Thanks in advance for any info / assistance
