    I currently have Pro Evo 6 but I am seriously finding it extremely frustrating. Is 2008 any better? I have Fifa 08 on the PC but I am seriously considering getting a copy for the 360.
    What's the best online soccer game?

    You dont really want PES08 on the 360 for online play.

    Check the PES Forum

    I second that - Biggest mistake I made was trading in PES 6 for PES 2008 (in terms of online play). It's practically unplayable unless the Sun, Moon and Stars happen to align in the correct order - whereupon you may be blessed with a half or two of playable action.

    Offline, it alright (bar a few glitches in the Replays)

    Really? I find PES6 to be extremely frustrating. Bad computer AI positioning for your own team and fruitless player switching. Thought maybe PES2008 may have been an improvement? Fifa '08 online? I hear it's ranking sytem is dodgy?

    I did the same traded in PES 6 for 2008. Went back down to Currys and bought a fresh PES 6 for online play (€4.97 new lol). I was wondering why so many people were still playing 6 online untill I tried 2008.

    Have 2008 on the PC as well and the online play is better (no paying M$ for a live subscription either). It aslo fully supports the wireless 360 controller.

    In many ways you are already playing the best on line football game.PES 2008 online is a disaster mine was traded in long ago.

    No. They have given up on pes2008 and are putting all their efforts into making 2009.

    Fifa, don't think I'd ever see the day when I'd recommend Fifa over PES (both offline & online)

    Yeah, obviously pes 6 is the best but in terms of online play fifa 08 is extremely smooth and reliable. I find the actual emphasis of the game is quite childish - flicks and tricks, as opposed to good passing etc. but the be a pro mode is great.
