Played both the demos for the new ones, Fifa is class again, PES is woeful again.

Its a real shame because I was always a PES fan but Fifa 09 blew it out of the water and having just played the PES 10 demo just beat Liverpool 3-0. 2 of my goals came from just running at Reina when the ball was near him only for him to just let my strikers rob it and score. The other goal came when I made of balls of trying to chip him and sent it straight into his chest, only for it to go through his chest and Messi to basically slide around the outline of Reina without breaking his stride and tap it in.

Then we had Torres attempt a dive and get a booking for them which would have been nice to see had any of my defenders been tackling him at the time, basically just threw himself to the deck with noone near him when he could have scored.

Fifa all the way, its just better in every department these days and PES also manage to fuck up the online aspect every year if that appeals to you with horrible lag times and general shitness in comparison to Fifa which can manage 20 players playing the one game if you want.

I think you need to up your level, I've played like 8 games now on Top Player and that stuff just doesn't happen.

Anyways, another learning curve for this year's Evo. Controlling the ball is no longer as simple as holding sprint from any direction and away you go. The 360 direction stuff is nice, makes the game feel really open and is if anything can happen. Pain in the arse to start with though adapting wise, it's all about timing, how much space you have, how good the player is, who you're against etc. A lot more manual movement involved as well.

Build up play is definitely the way to go on this years version, attack attack attack/get the ball and run is no longer the best form of attack, passing around, waiting for spaces to open up is pretty much essential.

It's easily the best looking Evo of all, kills off FIFA, especially when it comes to faces and kits. Crowds are better too.

That's not to say it's perfect. Keepers still have their moments, the occasional pass/header/touch etc will go in a non-sensical direction nowhere near where you're aiming, teammates AI is baffling at times, still feels a bit rough. However, every single year there's noticable difference between the demo and finished version of the game so I'm pretty confident.

I haven't had a football game in years.

My last football game was FIFA 04.

I think I might pick up FIFA 09 pre-owned or something or I just might get FIFA 10 when it's released.

I'm more of a FIFA man myself, though I have played Pro Evo games before but I just didn't like them as much as the FIFA games.

If you prefered FIFA over Pro Evo back then, you should probably never play a football game ever again may not like FIFA today (or Pro Evo) Those FIFA's were a mess but very accessible whilst Evo was in it's prime at that time. Nowadays FIFA is a lot better than it used to be (and a lot more sim-Evo-esque)
