Both Fifa and ISS games are considered the heavy weights of the football games on Playstation, however, sadly for me it seems that previous Fifa games seem still to top the charts with there flashy looks, real player names and arcade style play where as the ISS games always went for the superb realistic play over visuals. However ISS Pro Evo 2 came along and with many more people knowing about it, the game topped the charts, until yet another update of the fifa series came out. Now though the two heavy weights are prepairing for a fight as the two soon to be coming to PS2 in the form of Pro Evolution Soccer and Fifa 2002, this is how they look at first impressions:
Pro Evolution Soccer:
For the PS2 version the ISS has been dropped, but remember this is the ISS you want. First impressions about the graphics are good, they look so smooth and are built up with loads of detail. The stadiums look stunning as do the players, there are some really good life like ones such as beckham and Seaman. All the players and team names should all be correct this time if that bothered you, there has also been some talk of the pitch being a little bigger enabling some good build up play and more ways of scoring. The AI has also been improved making the game even more realistic than ever before. The game looks great, just hope they sort out the commentary.
Fifa 2002:
The Graphics from 2001 on PS2 looked amazing and 2002 does aswell, better in some cases. To try and top the charts once again, relising that the might Pro Evo is coming out, this Fifa will play like no other before it. More accuracy is now needed to pass the ball, short and long meaning pin point passed will no longer be as easy as sayint the alphabet, the player now has to control the angle of the ball and make sure the power is correct for a good shot or pass. The AI is suppose to have been improved also making the game more realistic therefor moving away from the arcade style. It is possible to press a button to see where your players are running to so you can plan your method of attack. Hopefully too the improvments are vast compared to the arcade 2001, which was still enjoyable, just not ad much as ISS Pro Evo 2.
With both games trying to top the charts, there should be masses of improvments over the precious games. The question is though, which are you going to spend your hard earned money on. With Fifa you are certain to get slick visuals and all the latest stats, but will the gameplay match. With Pro Evo you get the best gameplay there is on any console, which is why im getting it, although i will end up getting both probally.

Well, to be honest im not sure. I have had reports that yes this does happen. Looking on reviews on the net not a lot has been said about it.
On overs though, it seems there are some, these reviews were in chinese though, so they were not all succesfully translated.
As soon as i know, i will let you know.
This is Pro Evo, sighing off. :D

Go to edit your details(in red) and get a tagline, Hammy(sorry)
FIFA 2002 is just more of the same. Pass, run through 11 men as if they were invisible and then hit a 100mph shot which, if you get close enough always goes in. There is no realism in it and it is Ryman League opposition compared to ISS.
ISS has better graphics, control and realism. It has flare, tricks and even the celebrations to knock the socks off FIFA and it always does every year. Why don't these FIFA lovers just come to their senses and realise what the best footie game around really is - ISS. Even This Is Football is better than FIFA.
If you want to go waste your money and buy the ever underachieving FIFA then go and do it, but you will regret it as soon as you see Pro Evolution Soccer.

These 2 games are going to be discussed a lot in the next few weeks. You will get the definiteve opinion on both games right here on SRPSM2.
No problem, thats what i do anyway. There is not a day that goes by with out me saying Pro Evo is better than Fifa.
:D
:D
Thanks for the advice Pro Evo.
There is no pressure mate, you are free to have your own opinion. You should not feel like you cant express that.
