Show your rage with gigantic font size ;)

Haha, I shall do that next time. Have you downloaded it??

Apparently you can skip it after the first time on this one though. Which is a relief, because I was pretty sick of it :p

You better be able to or I will go berserk. I played one game, and left it on while I went for a one in case I had to watch it again. haha
 
Haven't downloaded it yet. Wasn't available last night when I checked. Will get it tonight.

Tried playing PES last year and the amount of feint moves and the like were overwhelming for me to process so I gave up.

I play on PC so had 3-4 years of an outdated machine before upgrading last spring and got PES.

I've always been FIFA so its gonna be an adjustment but I'm finding this easier.
Passing just seems a bit dodgy for me, not sure what it is, was fine for PES 2011 on computer. I'll keep trying but I am liking it dare I say.


edit: I like this more so far than fifa other than the passing.
also I found refereeing to be absolutely awful, but i like scoring goals on this more. Feels like you've earned it more.
 
Yeah, I'm not a a massive fan of the passing either. Just don't seem as fluid as FIFA, maybe I'll have to play it more since I'm so used to Fifa. Add the movement in tight situations as well. Also a lot of the goals seem fluky and random, whereas Fifa it seems more controlled. Most other things seem better though.
 
I went Inter and scored 2 awesome goals with Eto'o, the movement was amazing.

Yeah fair call about the refs, in all honesty they were OK in my Inter v Rangers game, but awful in Barca v Tottenham.

I'm even thinking about getting both, I just can't say no to FIFA but this game will give something different as well.
 
Had this downloaded all day yesterday and haven't actually played it yet, stupid FIFA demo has me hooked :p

No doubt I'll enjoy this too, and I still think PES will end up the better game this year.
 
Giving the PES demo 2 a go and it's definitely impressive.

Probably the biggest thing is the AI, both opponent and friendly. You get your own AI making some fantastic runs into dangerous positions and it's really helpful when they make a run that you're basically setting up through your passing.

The opponents by pressuring them make genuine mistakes. They don't just pull off some massive 30 metre pass off one step without looking.

It all really makes for some outstanding goals. I've mentioned one of my previous goals from Demo 1 where the GK was blindsided with players in his way and me taking a shot.

Well another one here was the ball getting cleared from a corner out to about 40 odd yards out, my player gets it and has an opponent come to him. I push the ball back slightly to a covering player which means the opponent who was manning the guy with the ball has to try and man 2 dangerous players. I managed to catch the defender on the wrong side of my player and took the opportunity to run around him, by the time he got around the man and to me I had a chance and took it. Put the ball into the top right corner from just outside the box.

Still really dislike the presentation and UI. Just so old and horrible.

Also the motion blur on the graphics for me is really quite off putting.

And it really hurts not knowing how the corners and free kicks work in power/position ratio's as having to learn and perfect that stuff takes forever. Same goes for the tactical side of things, just no idea. And the UI being so shit just makes it worse.

The shooting is good too, much like FIFA there's the flatter system, so you can nail shots from distance.
 
With corners, flick the right stick (this can happen during any dead ball play), and you can control a man of your choice (you just keep flicking the right stick to cycle through players), anyway usually I cross to a man at the near post and nod the ball on.

In the tactics (down the bottom if you scroll right, you can choose players to go up for attacking moves), so you can get CBs etc in the box.

Scored a 25-30 yard crack with Schweinsteiger yesterday, straight into the top corner, the keeper had no chance.

And with free kicks, if you lay it off (L1+X after you have called a player), you can score like that.

Can someone explain to me why the sprinting in this game is so ridiculous? Feels like players have lead weights in their boots and defenders can catch you even if you get at least a 10m head start. Trying to run down the wings is cringeworthy most times.

I guess I'm in the minority. I enjoyed the FIFA demo slightly more. Might get both.

Last year's PES had a horrible catch up bug that would make it almost impossible for even the fastest players to get away, and this year's is a huge improvement on that.

It's still not right.
