Well i'm Joe, i'm 17 and I live in Derby, England.
Been a fan of PES since I first played ISS Pro when I was 5/6 on PS1. I wasn't so bothered by the inaccuracies in the players names, the kits and the commentary as I am now, probably because I knew very little of real football, other than watching Match of the Day on Sunday mornings.
I continued to play ISS for 3 or 4 years until I went over to the dark side and bought FIFA 2000. I remained a FIFA player until PES 4 and i've never looked back, only purchasing FIFA 09 because apparantly 'it had overtaken PES'. My favourite PES, despite all its faults is probably the current version.
I'm a huge Derby fan for my troubles and have had a season ticket at Pride Park for 5 years now. I'm a bit disillusioned with the current state of English football, with the mega-rich oligarchs treating clubs as play things, 'kiss the badge' players who care only for their pay packets and the sterilty of atmospheres up and down the country due to sky high ticket prices pricing out many loyal fans, stewards treating fans like animals and the inabilty to stand up without getting a 3 year ban.
Despite all this I love football, and PES allows me to carry out my footballing fantasies whilst killing a bit of time and getting one over on my mates.
Hope that wasn't too long!
Cheers.
Also, I would be grateful if somebody would tell me how to upload a custom avatar, thanks.
