With the news earlier breaking from those who've had hands-on time with both versions of the game looking better on the Xbox 360 - unsurprisingly - yet another blow to the fans. Apparently, the game feels more like a tweaked version of its predecessor with the response time improved and some sharper textures here and there. Overall, the Pro Evo Journalists seem rather disappointed with Konami's latest iteration of the franchise.
This Is My Joystick NEW Celebrity Games Columnist OJ Borg Laments The Death Of The PS2.
The power of the PS2 was the social aspect; that dragged Gamers in. Nowadays we don’t need to see, smell or entertain our friends as we have Xbox Live and the shabby PS3 online thing, but back then, we used to have to be in the same room to play these games. This wasn’t a new thing, but the games just made it all-encompassing.
Games like Tekken Tag Tournament were great for a night of lazy boozing and gaming. Track and Field with a Multi-Tap was where we would give different names to the competition, depending on who was there (“AAA” if it was the poorer player’s, right up to an Olympics once every four weeks). We even had a little drugs scandal, when we decided to ban the use of socks on fingers to help mash the buttons.
The PS2 was a once in a lifetime machine, but honestly I hadn't seen a new one available here in the states in almost 5 years. The news that they have ceased production worldwide is basically symbolic.
The epic fight between the two soccer giants Pro Evolution Soccer and FIFA has been going on for over 10 years now. Cynamite takes a look at the scores from both games and shows, at which point PES overtook the FIFA series.
PS1/PS2 - PES by far
360/PS3 - FIFA by far
I can't see that changing until the next generation of consoles.
2000 - 2005 -> PES dominated since the PS1 days but then it came PES 2006 it was a major letdown
2006 - NOW -> Fifa started to show its quality on this current gen and it evolved year after year while PES was still way behind.
A shame that games like "This is football" just vanished during the PS2 days
pes2011 is much different from any next gen pes, this is really a huge improvement
Its funny to read or talk to the FIFA fanboy they cant accept the true and hate PES.
If you go to the FIFA forums they talk Bs. About pes and they hate it.
In the Pes forums they respect Fifa and many will be getting the two and we aré confidente that PES11 is better and the kind is back
Boomtown writes: "No rivalry in the world of gaming is fiercer than the one between competing football franchises. It almost mirrors the strength of feeling people have for their club. Crossing the divide to support another franchise is a relatively rare occurrence. There are two major derby matches in the football gaming calendar and they feature a bitter enmity which has built up over the last few years. The first is Pro Evolution versus FIFA and the second is Championship Manager versus Football Manager."
Thats so much BS i have played pro evo for the 360 and its garbage and it the new version looks better by a noticable margin. These guys have no credibility am gonna wait for professional impressions
That sucks, maybe it's just a rehashed port from last years game on 360.
Oh well, I'm a FIFA person anyway. I have FIFA 06 and 07. And it's been confirmed FIFA 08 60FPS on PS3. So it's cool.
In the earlier post, they wrote the game looked better on XBOX 360 and it became a huge flame war. Now they are saying the game just sucks, and nobody cares.
Why? Because nobody really cares about this game, they just care about what version looks better.
i care about this game and so do most British and Europeans as football is the biggest sport over here, prob best in world and we like our footy games so i want pro evo to be bloody good
here here predator!
(even if i hate ur avatar!!! lol!!)
