The sheer number of game modes make FIFA the most complete football game on the market, while the authenticity and quality of presentation continue to enhance the package overall.
EA Sports has taken substantial risks with this year's FIFA, but the resulting game can certainly be considered a successful experiment. It plays a more difficult and more refined game of football than its predecessors, and while it should be emphasised that the game is perhaps too difficult at times, it will reward players who put in the practice.
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."
Im sorry but more game modes doesn't = Better game.
It just hides the fact of shoddy gameplay compared with PES, the demo of Fifa 08 to me felt like the worse version in years.
If Fifa 08 is getting 8.5/10 Pes should be getting 11/10
Anyone who has played both PES and FIFA will agree
i think its a good score and i played both i am a reall big PES fan but when fifa came out this year with the demo i really liked it it plays so real and pes demo didnt really impress me it still looks last gen like ps2 graphics and they didnt really do nothing new agian they jus keep bringing the same game every year,, i was expecting some new stuff but they never deliver,, but fifa is great this year
i think i will go with Fifa this time. Not impressed by PES
i'll wait for PES2008
yea no thanks. PES 2008 for me.
