FIFA 13 vs Pro Evo 2013: Which Football Game Should You Get?

Kotaku - There are two great football games on the market this week. Most fans will only buy one. It's a tough call.

Alone amongst major sporting series, the battle between FIFA and Pro Evo is actually a pretty fair fight. Both games present compelling arguments as to which is the better football game, depending on who you are and what you're looking to get out of your game.

its PES all the way but I am very tempted by Fifa this year, its getting better all the time

Depends on how you define "better". More innovative yes, better I am not so sure. The menus in FIFA this year are slick compared to previous FIFAs but the Tactical Defending still puts me off. I'll never get used to that. I have been playing football games since ISS on the SNES, I just thought there was some fundementals to how football games should control forever! Its a game breaker for me anyway.

I am back to PES this year for the first time in many years and I have to say I am loving it. You never score the same goal twice unlike FIFA. If you play FIFA online you would know that 80% of the goals are pass across the box and shoot into an empty net. I got the new option file for PES last night so all kits are official now too :) One thing about PES 13 though, how do you invite friends to an online game? Anyone know?? I can't find it in the menus!

If Online Match Lobbies are open now then go in there, create a room and then you can invite from Options (I think), but I know that Konami haven't even put the whole online section into the game yet and have planned on patching that in. Stuff like that put me off getting the title, I might prefer the gameplay but I'm not buying a game that was rushed out unfinished which is being sold at full price, get lost Konami.

PES this year has come back and over taken FIFA I believe. It's really damn good. People won't give it the credit it deserves.

Not all outdated football games are worthless

Games Asylum: "Outdated football games are a common sight when scouring jumble sales, car boots and charity shops for bargain price video games. Entire shelves filled with decade-old FIFA and PES games spread across a dozen formats. Often they end up in bargain bins, sitting alongside unwanted celebrity fitness DVDs and seemingly random TV show box sets. But here’s the thing. Not all football games gathering dust in the likes of Oxfam are in fact worthless."

Now Sonic Boom & Bayonetta 2 are being outsold by FIFA 13 Wii U

Just who is buying FIFA 13 on Wii U? We may never know, but there are more people buying that than there are Bayonetta 2 and Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric.

Sonic Boom? welp, sucks to suck.
But, Bayonetta is a real shame

wonderfulmonkeyman3436d ago

Sonic Boom is riding off the popularity of the TV show; it's a bad game.

And as for FIFA?
Well, guess that goes to show that there's a lot of older gamers on Wii U that wanted FIFA, then; sports games generally do out-sell action games, and Platinum isn't known for large sales in the first place.

I'm not worried for Bayonetta. It'll hit that 1M mark by the middle of next year, surely, at its current pace.

are seriously trying to downplay Bayonetta 2 with sales
