You need loads of amtes to play a decent game of American football, so you almost have to play computer games, whereas you can play football with just 3 other people and it's amazing.
Nintendo World Cup > Pro Evo > Sensible Soccer > FIFA
> ISS < PES < FIFA
Oh noes.
Some ISS is PES.
Aja wil say you're arrows be the wrong way round.
Well I've been lucky enough to play them both so I'll give my views on them.
Pro Evo 4 is a good improvement over the last one, English and Scottish teams don't have proper strips and team names but these can be changed quite easily, where this game rules is the gameplay, plays the way a footy game should. Can play it with one touch passes, through balls and clever moves or you can play with skillful runs, tricks and long balls from defence. Makes every game different.
Master league has been improved and there is quite a few things to unlock through the PES shop.
Most players look like the real life players they are based on. Commentary is alright
Definately one of the best games I've played this year.
The Xbox version will also be online which is a major bonus for xbox gamers.
FIFA
I wasn't really expecting much from this, the previous game looked good and had all the official stuff in it but when it came to playing a game it just didn't feel smooth and fun to play in the way that pro evo did.
Anyway here's what I thought about the new fifa.
Everyting is all official so all the proper strips, players, names etc is all there. Everything is all up to date too, Rooney at Utd etc. Commentary is pretty good too.
On the pitch it looks good, graphics wise its put together well and everyone looks like the real players and real strips etc make it look good.
Play is ok, compared to pro evo 4 is a it pants though, still dosn't feel smooth although its an improvement over the last one, just dosn't feel like a proper game of footy when you comapre it to pro evo 4. Ball just seems to move in an unrealistic way.
FIFA will appeal to some, the real names, strips and one button to shoot. But for those who want a proper football game that takes a bit longer to get used too but once you do you'll master it and be able to play truely great football then pro evo wins it out the park.
Now if pro evo had all the official licences, proper strips, updated squads and totally realistic players then it would be the ultimate game. Guess a patched version will be around soon enough with real strips etc.
Anyone who thinks otherwise should jump off a cliff immediately.

Like the AJ, i find it to be the exact opposite.
PES is the game of the football Gods.

Yea they've included the Slovakian league and the 'great new ability' to allow you to do one touch passing which Evo has had for ages.
Pro Evo 4, enough said
Ah.
Then you've got FIFA, where you could backheel it in from your own 6 yard line.
Of course, that'd be an own goal.
