I finally got the real reason from konami about why Pro evo 4 isnt online for ps2

[Singh]

I sent one of the people at konami an email and this is what they replied with

Hi there,

The reason why it is on XBox live rather than PS2 online is because there
are more online players who use the XBox than PS2. We have not ruled out
working with PS2 online with subsequent versions of PES.

Kind regards,

Good to see the reason is not to do with poor infrastructure of the ps2 online

We have not ruled out
working with PS2 online with subsequent versions of PES.

whats all this about?

And this is probably in regard to Europe and maybe Japan. Seeing there are probably more US gamers online on PS2 then on Xbox. BUT the general US gamer doesnt care that much about soccer, more about American football and other sports.

So I guess Xbox Live must be doing better in the soccer mania regions And I'm thankfull!

/edit: btw, good find!

Probably means PES5, PES6 etc.

US gamers online ps2 then on x-box

if anythng there are more us gamers online on the x-box then the ps2

Do you reckon konami will release a future pro evo game online for ps2 or ps3?

I dont blame Konami picking XBL over Network play because who would want to put there game on NETWORK PLAY, when you have XBOX LIVE!!!

 

[Singh]

yea maybe so but i reckon x-boxs days are numbered watch when playstation 3 comes it,it will be better then x-box and also better then X-box 2 then playstation 3 owners will enjoy the game online!

Im sorry singh ut i cant keep quiet, firstly how the * do you know if the PS3 will be any better than the Xbox 2? Explain? Plus nothing good ever comes free! Network play, comes no where near xbox live, and i think that 40 quid a year is nothing for QUALITY online gaming!

Dont get me started singh on this ive heard this discusion loads of times so just leave it out

well from all the sites ps2 official home page etc sure they may be biased but i reckon IN MY OWN OPIOIN that ps3 will be better than x-box 2..

Wat alot of shite 7ronalodo7 started it about his views on ps2 network play and not me so get it rite!

Plus i dont wanna start up this ps2 v x-box debate becasue its getting real boring so to cut a long story short get back on the topic

 

[DARK JAK]

i think konami should have supported ps2 for online as it is where it started from and by having online it will only encourage gamers to buy it

 

[Singh]

yea i think most ps2 owners are thinking that ^^

Nevertheless its good of konami to give an explanation

 

[bbjaylive]

maybe we should make a petition to Konami saying how many people want to make pes4 ps2 online. anything could happen........

Singh, if you know that guy e-mail can you ask him if the slowdown is fixed or not ? and why did they allow to release a game with this bug, also ask him if the rumors about licensing the EPL and the SPL are true thanks

 

[Singh]

if only but all the x-box users wouldnt agree but if u read the letter i got fronm konami they said there not going to rule out further pes titles online for ps2 although a petiton sounds gud.....

 

[Singh]
