Boards PE2008 PS3 Champion

20 Times 20 Times

Hey guys ,


I will get this started , first of all the format is Playstation3 no exceptions at all. The way I'm going to run the competition is groups , with 4 players in 4 groups that's making 16 players in total with the top 2 in each group going through to the knock-out stage.

Their will be one match only in each round. The group stages will run for one week from the day the tournament starts . It is up to each player to organise his or her game against the opponent on a date and time that suits both players , failure to do this will result in a draw.

You can choose either clubs or countries and the time limit will be 10 minutes.

So after the first 16 sign up i will make the draw. Who is up for this ?

Sarge


ps : Signing up first

RandolphEsq

I'm in.

Online or Offline?

And when will it begin?

poreilly101

I'm in also!

Nailz

Yep, but it only depends on if I get my fùcking Network up! Dirty bastardin' thing!

jebuz

I'll sign up for full privileges

EDIT: Sarge, you could use PesRankings.com to host the tourney, it can automate the draws, league standings etc and we can have our own chat room to meet in.

Nailz

Yeah then we'll be able to shout aload of abuse at each other!!

neacy69

brian plank

Nailz

No you can use any team you wish I think, it's your own fault for losing, no excuses.

I'd love to join in. Only recently purchased a PS3 an it came with 3 second hand games and when I try to join the on-line league by entering the code it says the code is already in use.

Nobody knows anyway round this besides having to buy a new game or wait for the new version to come out.

jebuz

thats a sh!t system if thats the case! can't believe there's no other option but to buy a new game...more money for konami

s_carnage

Have got round it. Got a code and password of a mate and it seems to be working. The only problem i have know is that i have moved home for a week while moving house and our broadband seems to slow to connect to anyone online.

As soon as one problem is solved.....!!!!

Nailz

Sick, hate that! Mmm who is your broadband provider? Some of these lads do house warning connections/upgrades as a package.

dionsiseire

i'll play as soon as i find my PES online code

had to replace my PS3 and thus lost the online login info

now i have to convince konami to give it to me coz i cant find the manual

Sqaull20

BazMcG

Is this still happening?

neacy69

Ya might get more interest if you run it on 360....or wait until the new one comes out in november cos a lot of people offloaded PES for fifa

pesireland

has this started yet, like to join if not to late.

PSN: lpoolfan

Why would there be more?....if you were around here when the game first came out you would know i tried this then and got nowhere....... these kind of things wont work until all our friends get PS3's..... cause even if you get strangers, as soon as there out of the running in the groups etc... they don't fulfill there fixtures etc... least if you know them you can make sure everyone plays there games!

dionsiseire

im going to attempt to get the networking working on PES 08 tonight, i lost my manual and all the konami support sent me is the user number thing on the back of the manual

so i think i just have to remember what password i used

very true, people tend to quit and not complete there fixtures when they are doing poorly, which is crap imo. You'd Need guys that are dedicated to it, you'd have more look finding lads on pesrankings but some are cheats on there and cutbackers.

dionsiseire

lol cutbackers

all i can say to that is learn to defend, in real life an opponent could could it back, learn to position your defenders

dionsiseire

jebuz

nah i played couple of days ago for first time in ages, didn't experience any lag although I never really did get much anyway. funny how you go through phases of playing loads of master league and then loads of online...

so are we nearly ready to start this then?

dionsiseire

well im back working online again

i added whoever gave out a PSN to my PSN

i am dionsis

on pro evo network im probably dionsiseire

Nailz

PES ID: conormccauley

swalsh

Haven't been online in ages but will be back on to practice before PES2009 comes out

dionsiseire

i played 2 online the other night

1 was awash with lag and the opponent giving me the usual chat abuse of

CHEAT LAG **** etc etc etc
i just ignored it and beat him

then i played a game with next to no lag, it was refreshing, we'll see how it fairs over the next while. i'm gonna try keep my games to irish people if i can

Only got online set up for the PS3 yesterday so not to sure about setting up but I'd definitely be on for this. My PES username is Carnagerock and my Playstation username is Bucktuck. Not sure if that will help getting me started but any pointers are welcome.

Was playing online for a while yesterday and the first few matches were great but then in the evening i did start experiencing a good bit of lag. There was one instance were i took tip of at the start of the first half and then the screen starting skipping like mad and the next thing i know it was in the back of my net!!!!

The amount of players playing with Barca and with Eto'o and Henry on the wings and just cutting into the box and laying it off for a tap in was disgraceful. A lot of players refuse to take a shot but just hold the ball up so they can lay it off to a free player to tap it in. I dunno but i prefer scoring by beating the keeper the proper way or a few long rangers. Much more satisfaction even if i am losing to 3 cut backs!!!
