Well that sucks, how can they leave something like that out? I guess it has something to do with stopping people editing rosters but that can easily be worked around, hopefully a patch to include custom online formation will be released.

My friend at first told me he wasted his money after my recommendation but after a while, he began to love it (a pro evolution guy).

I came back from holiday after not playing the game in three weeks and it felt weird and slow but once I got back into the groove, you realise it's still amazing.

Yeah the speed does pick up after a while, I in fact play in the dynamic view as I find the gameplay to be smoother, however the game does have quite a few niggles, it’s certainly the better of 2 but really its nothing to be proud of as neither are fantastic games.

Totally a agree.

I'm a Pro Evo man myself, but this year Fifa produced an AMAZING game.

Pro Evo 2008 was a big let down, i bought a PS3 just for that game, i was gutted how shit it was, but thankfully EA stepped up and put out a great FIFA game FOR ONCE.

No PES fan can say Pro 08 is more realistic, thats absolute bollox. FIFA 08 is as realistic you can get to real football. If you want to play football double or triple the speed, then buy PES 2008. Its like an arcade game.

PES 1,2,3,4,5,6 >>>>>> FIFA 2000, 01,02,03,04,05,06,07

FIFA 08 >>>>>>>>> PES 2008

It means that if you consider a player running the full length of the field in about 4 seconds to be realistic then i'd say that you're more loopy than i had already imagined.

Indirect type of FK. Ive seen it in a few vids on YouTube, just wondered how it was done?

redmanc · 11th January 2008, 12:47

Not sure to be honest. Best reading the manual

The only free kicks im any good at are the blasting it at goal ones, where on the PS3 you hold L1, the angle of spin and circle for power!

GE · 11th January 2008, 18:31

Cheers, i tried the manual, but no mention in there.

I'm extremely disppointed with both so called 'Next-Gen' footie games, hopefully next year we will see a real improvement.

In terms of gameplay though, PES is still the king.

Correct.

I'm still flabbergasted in how people can still suggest PES is better then Fifa in terms of gameplay. And why you're disappointed by Next Gen football games I'm not to sure of either, what was you expecting?

I completely agree, FIFA even a few years ago lagged behind, this new FIFA takes the cake an absolutely great game imo

GE · 13th February 2008, 17:52

Squad update should available be any time soon

AttackingFlair · 13th February 2008, 18:21

I got to 185th in the world, probably won't last for long.

Rams · 13th February 2008, 22:54

ProEvo has it faults, but the latest Fifa is the biggest pile of shit I have ever had the displessure to come across. Fifa is for infantils who want looks over substance. The game play is abominal. It still feels totally unrealistic. Terrible. Boooooooooooooooo.

so unbelievably wrong, is that why FIFA is outselling Pro by miles? This years game destroys Pro

Rams · 13th February 2008, 23:10

great, let all the girls play fifa and let the big boys play a proper game.

Fifa = Gay

Enjoy it by yourself then while we all recognize a good game when we see it

Rams · 13th February 2008, 23:14

Most people like the Xfactor as well.

Fifa = Shit

Scholesy · 13th February 2008, 23:17

Cant believe people hate this game. Ive loved pro for years, but this year, Fifa is better by quite a big bit.

Pro is terrible imo.

AttackingFlair · 13th February 2008, 23:17

How long did you play Fifa for?

Exactly, doesn't take a genius to work that out, FIFA is better than PES this year, fact.

I used to enjoy playing Pro Evo too and have sometimes bought both games, but I've played the new pro a couple of times to give it a chance and it really isnt great. FIFA has come a long way whereas I havent seen much change in Pro for the past few years.
