Oh well I might have got a little better by then, I learnt how to do tricks last night!! I was made up, they should come with retard instructions.
Im hardly gonna pick FIFA up, after playing Pro Evo for the last 3 years and be superb at it, surely any game takes getting used to. Im getting better, still some things to iron out in my game, but im getting there.
No they weren't, you could change your formations and individual game tactics to attack and defend, but nothing on individual players or positions. And yes I do put the difficulty so those 5-0s turn to 2-0s from amateur to pro
This thread makes me laugh.
I'd bundle the Pro Evo lovers with the Mac humpers and the anti pineapple brigade.
Simple fact: Pro Evo is the Japanese version of football. For more information on the Japanese version of anything go to Japan. Its abit weird. You play Pro Evo and you can just tell its from Japan. Its the economy of movement, its the render, its the style of the game.
Pro Evo was awesome in 1998. That version rocked because it had through balls. But the shooting, the arcade 'soccer' feel, the bog standard gameplay, the no-licences and the LFC connection make this game a waste of money. I've found people who can't play Fifa play pro evo. See: Mikelsgoat.
Reasons why i dont like this game.
I don't like the ball dynamics. It doesn't feel like it has any weight to it. You can shoot by merely tapping the shoot button and the ball goes flying over the bar. What the? Its also intergrated more into the camera work. (Looking from high Tele view on both) The camera for Fifa is more fluent, while the Evo camera moves seemingly with every touch. You might like this, but for me its annoying.
The players are too rigid. I you watch them on fifa they will dribble with either foot, be more sensitive to the touch and more fluent in their motion. They open up when they get the ball, they look like they are thinking about what they are doing. Pro Evo players do everything in forced movements. And they all do the same jerky move when they recieve the ball.
Tackling. Play Pro Evo and tackle the ball in a standing tackle. Bam! Its taken off you and if you quick enough Bam! You win it back, the Bam! Its taken off you again. Its a last man standing thing and its not realistic.

Anyway, basically I was saying you could label the same problems with PES on Fifa (penny floater balls, poor long range shooting, bobbles, no weight to the players, dribbling that amounts to nothing, mainly a kick and run game).
I think tactics and stats dont really mean much on Fifa. You can go Donny Rovers and spank Spurs everywhere. There's no individuality with the players, all the top players play the same.
PES while arcade-like is more intelligent in that you've got to break teams down. Individual players stand out. Better teams control games more. Takes a bit of effort.
And I can play Fifa, I like Fifa. I just find it easy and unsatisfying.
Anyway, if not a Fifa VS PES thread. Its a PES thread. NOthing PES related......PLEASE LEAVE!!!!!![]()
