Im not too bothered about boot colours, kits etc but it's always nice to have the right football player and team names instead of made up ones that's where PES lacks.

Personally I think both a good games, PES3 is better as the gameplay is the way a football game should be.
FIFA tries hard and its a good improvement over some of there last efforts at a football game but all the fancy looks and proper kits etc dosn't make it better than PES3.

Only thing FIFA does better is online play but if you have mates and PES3 I think a lot more fun can be had.


Oh and WE7 beats them both :)

Isn't that what the culture of these forums is based on?

I have played both. And yes, compared to PES 3, FIFA is crap. The gameplay is just awful, the players STILL feel like they can't run, goals give you no sense of joy, defenses are too easily torn apart (even compared to Pro Evo 2) and it's songs are just annoying. Compared to Pro Evo's funky Euro dance music.

But the graphics and licenses are great, and the visible referees are not bad either.

Oh, I'm a fanboy?

Simply because I paid £30 for a network adapter in order to play online games. If you ask me if I didn't play it online, it wouldn't of been worth the £30 I paid out.

We'll see if you are so negative about online play once games like; SSX 3, medal of honor, Destruction Derby, Final Fantasy XI, Tony Hawks underground and more, e.g. need for speed, Socom 2, Hardware, tribes aerial assault, and not forgetting Gran Tourismo 4 come out. Then we'll se eif Online play is for fanboys or for people who are lucky.

Having the gameplay isn't all what a game is about. If it has extras like Online play then, quite frankly, it annihilates the rest.

I think it's very silly to slate either game. PES3 is in my opininion is the best PS2 game out there. It's hardly surprising then that FIFA isn't going to be as good. But just because it's not as good doesn't mean it's crap. I took it to play with a few mates. At first they said that it was a little slow and genrally not very good, but after a while they realised that it's actaully a total different game, and once you are over the differences in gameplay, FIFA is a very enjoyable game. We all agreed that PES is now becoming slightly more arcadey, where as FIFA is now leaning into the gritty realism. Shootings a bit off in FIFA, but the fact it has real teams, great presentation, online play, and enjoyable gameplay, means that it is one of the best sports games on PS2, just not quite PES3. WE7 is still better than both though.
