Making the switch...

Well, I have every Fifa since 04, but 10 is terrible. I've always been ranked on multiplayer each year, making it to 1100 in 09 and 1300 in 10. But now everybody has these high pressure abusive tactics with 8 guys in defense and 2 fast strikers up front it's ridiculous. EA aren't doing shit for patches and they won't even fix the gameplay issues.

I'm thinking about switching to PES soon and I have a few questions.

I read about these lag problems, how bad are they?
Are there custom tactics/formations that everyone can abuse?

4-3-3 (usually Barcelona or like) with fast wingers running to the byline and cutting the ball back tended to be the "cheap" tactic in PES, but it wasn't as bad last year as it once was, so hopefully, it's even more manageable this time (I won't have 2010 for a month or so).

It seems like it depends on what you play on. On PC online is great and thats what I play on. But Ive heard some bad words from people playing on ps3/xbox about the lag....
