Which one do you think is better?
I prefer Fifa 2004, which is probably the opposite answer of what many people will reply with.

Nope, is and has always been the best free kick system, simple yet still reliant on pure skill, maybe Fifa's direct it and let the game do the work suits your lack of skill if you find PES too hard?

Erm, my patched version is better than Fifa. Depends how involved you want to be, if you're gonna sit and be mardy, then, yes, they don't sdpend all their money on advertising/liscenses and none on the game, like Fifa.

Depends on the player. This stops defenders curling 30 yard screamers which curl from toward the corner flag to going in off the post.
> I seldom score volleys outside the area.
Yeah, I know what you mean, because I scored 9 volleys outside the box today and 33 gajillion overhead kicks yesterday.

can have their moments of insanity but I've seen loads of top class saves from some pretty poo keepers.

Quite an achievement, it has to be said.

Yes, the refereeing can be annoying at times, however the free kicks are far from crap. You just have to master the system, and you will get better by practice. Unlike FIFA, where you just have to have good eye-hand co-ordination to line-up a bar. Pfft. Primitive. The teams that are licensed are good, and some geezer from Konami said they're planning on having all clubs licensed in PES4. The names are fine, though - all the main players are there, and who cares if a couple of Saudi Arabia players have the wrong name?

Don't run and shoot at the same time - slow to a jog. Then curl it yourself.
> I seldom score volleys outside the area.
And this is a common feature in real football?

Your opinion, but in comparison to other games, they're actually the best. They might be the worst, but they're the most realistic, anyway. They can't magically dive from one side of the goal to the other to prevent a rocket shot (FIFA and Club Football), and keepers in real football fumble the ball occasionally as well.

Yes but even more seldomer. At least in real life some volleys go on target.

Ah, but compare them to Pro 2 goalies. There weren't much wrong with them.
At least I don't remember there being...

J'T, maybe your problem is that you're not good at the game?
This is in regards to the crap Goalies comment ;)
