Article on Fifa in EDGE

Good article on Fifa.. Good to see they acknowledge Pro Evo as the superior game in the past, and how it inspired them to completely overhaul the Fifa series

I am an expert on gameplay. Fifa 09 is years ahead of PES09's gameplay. And that's not even a matter of taste. It's just simple fact. And I used to love Pro Evo.

No point mate. There is just no talking to some people. devereaux17 is convinced he is an apple and no amount of your voodoo "Logic" will change his mind. . We all know he cries himself to sleep at night anyway.

Devereaux, that is 2 threads you have flamed. If I see anymore flaming, you are getting a 1-week ban. You have been warned both publicly and privately.

Keep it on topic guys.

Tbh, I wouldn't disparage the good name of Gimnastic by comparing them to Real Madrid.

In terms of gameplay, for the last two seasons, FIFA has been completely dominant. Pro Evo used to be unrivaled, but it has taken giant steps backwards, FIFA have taken giant steps forward. That has been widely acknowledged.

I used to be a hardcore Pro Evo fan, but I buy a game for the gameplay, not the name. FIFA has better gameplay, but Pro Evo has less twats online.

My original point still holds! ;)

If you think back to PES6 which was the last working online PES then there were plenty of twats back then too. If PES does get its act together and I really hope it does then you can be assured that there will be just as many idiots on there.

Even still for Pro Evo 6 when loads of people were playing it online, it was never as bad as FIFA is at the moment for quitters.... its next to impossible to finish at game when you are winning.

In FIFA you can just pause, quit game and pop into another game in 10 secs. You should never, never, never be given an easy quitting option when you are directly connected to one other person

Those celebrations always be turned off for online play. Nothing more annoying than some lad running around for half the day after scoring, watching all the replays.... I think that was a horrible idea, its just giving more ways to people to act the twat.

Are you serious man? Some of the best moments in Fifa online are through celebrations, people message you, acting the hard man, you score after 10 seconds, there is nothing better than giving them the aul finger to the mouth... Ssssshhhhhh.

yea but fifa actually works online That is the only reason I bought it. I always preferred pes but fifa 09 is way better. And im actually pretty good at it for a n00b

My aunt got me Fifa 08 last year and I thought it was ok but not great. Timed with PES being **** online and only mediocre offline, I got Fifa 09, traded in pes and never looked back.

They are solely designed to piss your opponent off, an option to turn them off would be nice.

I want to play the game, not spend 30 seconds watching some idiot running around like a headless chicken every time he scores.

The only time I do like them is on our boards team, when we can co-ordinate it properly into something thats actually funny and doesn't look like rubbish!
