1)The people who tested 360 movement said it was a major improvement.
You know another major improvement they have made involves the way defenders mark space rather than the man, you can see it in the 'fifa10 leaked gameplay video' (real or not real, you decide).
2) There was a poster on here once called 'trigglebeef' guy knows his shit about both games, we both agreed that the FIFA games are continuation of the good work finished in pes 6, I have always said I believe fifa 09/10 to be the true successors to pes 6, as fifa took the core elements of gameplay pes had and built on it. Thus why I always say that FIFA is now PES and PES is turning into the FIFA of old.
For that reason, I dont miss PES much, all fifa need to do is make sure the manager mode is engrossing as the master league, for features, this year it will be better of that i have no doubt, they just need to make sure it has the longevity, thats one of the final pieces of the puzzle.
I understand what you are getting at. But the fact is, like you mentioned, FIFA games become repetitious and boring after only weeks whereas the PES of old would keep you going for months, if not till the next release.
I had FIFA09, and believe me when i say, I was blown away by it initially and actually posted a review on here and gave it a high 9. After about 3 weeks I just got bored of it. The gameplay is just not very exciting for me, especially the lame goals.
And that's another thing: FIFA is a good game when it comes to DEFENCE and PASSING and MIDFIELD play but it lacks so much in the final third ( where most of the excitement happens ). And, again, the goals just dont feel special like they do in PES.
The next gen pes games are, without a doubt, big failures ( not so much 2009 but even that did not even come close to the golden standards set by PES6 ).
As for 360 movement, as far as I know, the people that tested are huge fifa fans and I would assume that has something to do with them liking it. But again, we should wait and see how it is implemented and if it really is needed. I still think that 16 or 32 way would be ideal ( but maybe making it 360 degrees would not be much harder so they might have gone that extra mile ), will see.
I still have not played a better football game than PES6 and I am actually going to buy a PS2 again and a copy of the game to play.
PES6 was the COMPLETE football package:
Many statiums
Varied weather conditions
Balanced gameplay
Responsive
Tons of modes
EDIT mode is amazing
Good animations ( even now )
and much more...
A true football fans dream come true ( although PES5 is right up there with it )
BTW: I hope FIFA10 is as good as it can be. I want the best game, not KONAMIs or EAs game...just the best game.
