Is it odd that I enjoy coming here to read how everyone is doing in their careers?

Also, I was thinking of jumping up to 10 minute games cos I ened up with too many 0 - 0 draws playing at 5 minutes. How long do you guys play per game?

10 minutes, in my third season at the moment.
Playing with Fulham, seem to have some bad luck in front of goal but I've got the top assists in the league at the moment.
Andy Johnson is the worst guy to ever play up front with, he regularly doesn't pass and shoots from rubbish positions.
But we're through to the champs league group stages so I'll stay till the end of season.

Yeah ten minutes here as well. I dread to think how little of the ball I would see with five minutes.

Well I switched to 5 mins when I was stuck in the reserve games. Nothing worse than pointlessly running round for a full 10 minutes. Now my stats are better and I actually get passed to I think I'll up the time.

LOL

First 10 minute game and I bag my first brace and then hat trick in a 4 - 0 win over Spurs. Then we went on to a classic versus Man Utd.

Kept up what is becoming a tradition by scoring at "Old Trafford". Rooney equalised before Hargreaves was red carded for bringing me down just outside the area. Corini made it 2 - 1 with the freekick. Man U were then given a penalty that Fabregas blazed wide. Rooney eventually got a second equaliser before I set Essien up to make it 3 - 2. United still had time to hit the post before the final whistle.

Gotta say, I love 10 minute games!!

10 minutes/Top Player. Spent first 2 seasons at Sunderland, took me about 7/8 games before I was first choice. Was pretty cool actually, survived 'relegation' on the last day of the first season. I had my favourite match so far, penultimate game of the season, against Chelsea, they needed to win to keep up with United I scored my first brace, one of them a penalty (also my first) to give United the title. Second season un-eventful

Signed for Spurs at the start of the third season, took me about 3 games before displacing Bent as the sole striker (which made no fucking sense since he was top scorer in the league with like 5-6 goals in the first 3-4 games) Great season for the team, finished 4th, scored something like 12 goals in the league

4th season was abysmal. Finished like 16th, had about 10 goals myself. Decided pretty early on in the season that I was gonna leave if a decent enough team from abroad came in (don't really wanna play for anybody else other than United in England) Celtic and AZ were the best non-English teams that came in. Stuck it out 'til the end of the season.

Signed for Porto in the 'summer'. Shit hot there atm, can't put a foot wrong, 7-8 games in, scored 6 goals in the league, 2-3 in Europe, got my first 3 caps for England off the bench. 'Tis all good. Wanna play for Milan/Inter/maybe Juve/Real/Barca/Bayern before returning to England with United. We shall see how it works out

Added a further 4 goals for the season taking my tally to 8 goals from 5 games (since moving to 10mins)/7 games for the season.

However, I'm still on 'Normal' (or whatever the middle one is - wish they'd just stuck with the star system) guess I'll step if I do ridiculously well this season.

I think I'm proper addicted to BEL mode. Was up til 3.30 last night finishing the season off

Won the league, just, by 2 points over Barca, and won the Champions League, beating Arsenal 4-1 in the final (avec hattrick) Joint top scorer for that one too. I was miles behind in the pachichi rankings though, going to have to work on that - finished with 29 goals and 9 assists for the season in all competitions.

Then won the World Cup Scored 8 goals, still didn't get top scorer due to Trezeguet hitting 9 1 x Canada, 4 x Egypt, 2 x Romania, 1 x South Africa. Beating up the little teams

Had an offer from Milan to move but they play a strange 4-5-1 / 4-3-3 hybrid and have tons of strikers already, so going to stay at Real for a bit longer.

Didn't have a good rating for last season despite scoring so many goals so I'm concentrating on playing better for the team this year. Averaging about 7.2 at the moment, 3 goals and 5 assists from 7 games

LEAGUE - Winners
Great start, took a huge lead over the rest of the pack until Arsenal caught me. Slipped to 2nd before fighting to a 13 point lead at the top. Once again started to slip. Man U went ahead of me on goal difference - for one week. Won the league by 5 points.

19 Goals / 6 Assists


LEAGUE CUP - Semi-Finalists
Beat Villa (3-0 agg) and Liverpool (5-1 agg) before being knocked out on away goals to Everton (1-1).

4 Goals / 0 Assists


EUROPEAN MASTERS CUP - Winners
Beat Spurs (5-1 agg), Fiorentina (2-1 agg), Marseille (5-1 agg) and lastly Man Utd (1-0) where I got the winner.

4 Goals / 2 Assists





EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP QUALIFIERS
6 Matches / 4 Goals / 0 Assists
Qualified top of group.


A decent season overall. Started really well but the goals seemed to dry up towards the latter stages. Still fucked off with some team mates/squad selections.


CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS
Offers from Chelsea (q), Torino, Portsmouth, Hull, Marseille (q), Barcelona, Villareal and Arsenal (q).

Would go to one of the Spanish teams but they didn't qualify for the "Champions League" so I'll stay at Chelsea another year I think. See if I can't add a CL medal to my League Cup (x2), League and Masters Cup medals.

Well finished my season with Roda JC. Helped them up to 7th even though they were a worse team collectively than Bolton. Got into the League team. Scored 10 from 30 games. Was considering staying with Roda JC even though they managed to get worse in the new season. Then came an offer that was too good to refuse. 3 games in, Dutch tactical genius Steve McClaren comes in with an offer to play for FC Twente. They were already top of the league with 9 points as well so off I went!

They play a 4-5-1 formation but it feels a lot better than Bolton's and Roda JC's 4-3-3 come 4-5-1. At the end of November right now and have 8 goals and am at an average of 6.9. Second top goalscorer and second best player as it stands. Roy Makaay is ahead of me on both fronts but then there's no real shame in being second to him. 4 points clear at the top of the league.

Playing against the AI is so awful on football games. It's nothing like playing with real people.

Real people predict what you're gonna do, and try to react as best they can when they're wrong.

AI is unable to predict what you're gonna do, but has instant reflexes.

I played PES 4, 5, and 6 online with very little lag. 4 and 5 were on the XBox, and 6 was PC.

I mostly play with my brothers, for real human competition, and somebody in the room to laugh at when they miss an open net.

We switched to FIFA this time (first time since 99), since the latest PES is so bad.

The good thing about single player on this Pro Evo is that you don't know what the AI is going to do when you are playing on the same team.

2008 and 2009 PES are terrible online.

Be a Legend is the only thing PES really has going for it anymore. 10 v 10 FIFA 09 games are great, either when people take it serious and keep their position, or if it's chaos and everyones ball following like a schoolboy match

Jabba: You ain't playing this on PC though, are ya?

You get like 1 or 2 decent games say per 20 or so online with Evo. Everybody else picks Barca, Inter, United or Brazil, gives the ball to Messi/Eto'o/Ronaldo/Adriano and charges down the wings, cuts in and shoots. It's not even that hard to defend against, it's just gets boring and annoying after a while. I'd rather play 'properly' and lose and squeel like a girl when something beautiful comes off than score the same goal a 1000 times. And there isn't anything wrong with the opposition AI on this years game. Best it's been in a long time. The same can't be said about your AI teammates however

Playing with friends/relatives is the best option, because you can make agreements on which teams to use and such.

I joined an online league for PES 6 on the PC, and certain teams/tactics were outlawed. So that's another option.

I agree in part with what Jabba is saying, however, as a gamer that isn't online I have to stick to playing the AI. Although there is nothing better than getting a few of the boys together for a proper one-on-one rampage.

Mind you, Become A Legend offers enough for the single player this year.

Gave the game some hammer and then went on BAL mode.

Playing as a second striker and scored in my scouted game with two assists and then signed for Pompey.

Oh man, level with Makaay on 17 goals right now, a hat-trick last night for me made it very interesting.

Also the cup competitions have started. In the semi final of the FA Cup equivalent and into the second stage of the UEFA cup like tournament. Funnily enough I was dropped to the bench for the start of both tournaments. We got past Espanyol after I came off the bench and scored two and now it's on to Seville.

I'm finding it ridiculously easy on normal on Be a Legend mode. For example, after five games, I've found myself in the starting squad for England.

I owned FIFA 09 for a few weeks, and so far, prefer that to Pro Evo. I'm not a fanboy, having more or less alternated between the two for about 10 years now, but this year, Pro Evo seems to be missing something.

I'm going to give it a couple more weeks.

Is that 5 games for your club or 5 games for England?

If it's the later then I'm not suprised tbh. I think you get automatically drafted into the national side at a certain point.

4 games left and I'm top scorer with 20 while Makaay has 18. Top of the league with a 2 point lead over PSV. Got knocked out of Europe by Seville, got knocked out of the Dutch Cup by Ajax even though I put us 1-0 up, I got subbed on about 75mins, then they scored two Hoping that winning the league and being top scorer will make up for it. Scored 50 league goals now in my third season which I'm quite happy with considering some of the crap teams I was playing in.

Won the league and was top scorer, decided that I needed to move on as I couldn't really do much more in that team. Moved to Italy to play for Fiorentina, a few games into the season and we are top and unbeaten. Joint second top scorer, Fiorentina are in the Champions League type tournament so it's all good, first match is up next.
