Fifa Vs Pro Evolution Soccer
I am absolutely crazy about Football games . Hardly i day goes by when i dont play them . Now whenever we think of any soccer games , there are only two games that come to our mind and that is “FIFA” by EA Sports and “Pro Evolution Soccer or Winning Eleven” by Konami . Ofcouse i am not mentioning “Football Manager” or “Fifa Manager” as they are more management oriented . Here i will discuss the various features of the games …..the thoughts expressed are my opinion only .
My tryst started with soccer games when i first got hold of FIFA 2001 . I was very much impressed by thr gameplay and the graphics which was very well considering that time . The game was followed by FIFA 02 , 03 , 04 , 05 etc . Each game proved to be much better than its predecessor in terms of Gameplay , graphics , commentary and i spent hours playing each one of them . But at that time i hadnt heard of Konami Pro Evo SOccer as at that time it was mainly available for the consoles and even the gaming industry was almost entirely monopolized by FIFA . But around 2 years back , i got a chance to try out the demo of PRO EVO SOCCER 4 and beleive me i forgot FIFA from that day . The gameplay which PRO EVo SOCCER offered was way much better than that of FIFA . The player’s movement were damn realistic ,the flexibility in the game play , graphics which i found better than FIFA etc got me hooked . The game improved with Pro Evo Soccer 5 whereas i found that EA didnt give much attention to FIFA as there recent releases FIFA 06 and FIFA WOrld CUP 06 …..even FIFA 05 was lot better than them . Now Lets take a look at some comparsion points between the two .
THE BATTLE
1-> Graphics wise FIFA seemed to be doing well with each release until they released FIFA World Cup 06 ….the graphics of latest installment is damn bad compared to the level of graphics we have in the Games of today . Pro Evolution Soccer on the other hand offers much realistic modeled characters which are as equivalent to there real life counter parts . Even the Stadiums are beautifully rendered .
2-> FIFA wins by a large margin when it comes to Licensed teams and tournaments . They got license for almost all the teams in the World and you can even play in all the major leagues in the World . PES 5 lacks in this respect but i think that will change when there next installement comes out .
3 ->The League system of FIFA is also lot better than that of PES 5 . You got a carrear mode which is just great and you have little bit of management involved in it too , you can even buy and sell players just like real life managers do , you have to meet the expectations of the board othewise you can be sacked . PES occurs a Master League Mode where some amount of trading and training is involved but i dont think that it can match FIFA as of now .
4-> Commetary wise i cant say much but i find FIFA to be much better .
5 ->But the most important thing is the gameplay and in this regard PES is much better than FIFA . In Fifa the game play is quite good but it tends to get boring after a while as you score almost the same type of goal every time and you can even make a player run all the way from your half and score a goal . But such is not the case with PES . The gameplay is much more realistic than FIFA , even the goal scoring ways are so much diffrent everytime you score . The controls of PES are also amazing and offers you to do a variety of things with the ball ( harder to master ).
Overall i find PES much better than FIFA , there are a lot of people who find FIFA better but i think many of them havent given PES a try , do try it and beleive me you will get hooked .
Now you can also share the goals scored in FIFA and PES with other users worldwide , read about it here .
for turong, If you like PES because u can create yourself and just for that reason, FIFA have now got that and you can choose your own goal celebration also…they have copied PES…maybe.
These are companies not only trying to create the best ever football game…EA Sports and Konami can easily make a football game thats way better than it’s latest version on the streets today. However, they’ll only improve it slightly (on purpose) as they know that you’ll buy the latest FIFA or PES game no mater how better it is from its predecessor. If they did make the best game they coul come up with…the next time round they would struggle to think of new ideas of how they could improve the game…meaning no more newer versions and less money for the companies.
THERE IN IT TO MAKE MONEY…not to make our christmas’ feel special.
fifa is the don you pro evo blokes aint got a clue trust me
shut up pecker, if that is your real name, i bet you’ve got one…
Right well Im not your average age for a game player im 38
I first started playing football games with Fifa 97 and then world Cup 98. #Which when u got into wasnt bad at all for the time (switch between 3 formations strategys diving group analysis etc )
However I a-lso played the first PES games which as I remember was ISS
The first of these was very very different to whats around now and it wasnt great lol. However shortly afterwards konami released ISS 98 now this is where the basic engine of the current game developed. It was also about this time when konamis game began to have superiority over Fifa imo.
The improvement in gameplay and in realism improved considerably with every new version while Fifa seemed to me to almost stand still and realism was virtually non existent. The actual physics engine of Pro evolution is where it absoloutley makes Fifa look very poor and I recently played PES 2 to campare it to Fifa 06 /It didnt really suprise me when I found it was the better game.
So take it from me PES is THE FOOTY GAME
Fifa is for peeps who like easy games to play with no complexity and
who like arcade games. PES is for people who like Simulators like realism and are prepared to take the time to learn to play in short PES is for REAL FOOTBALL FANS
for IH911,
i dont like pes only for the editing i like it because it has more variety than fifa.
In fifa if you create a player it looks wierd but in pes it has the better variety and you can choose your appearance precise.
I dont only like pes for that, i prefer it over fifa because the gameplay and different leagues and cups.
The only reason i would buy fifa would be the liscenced clubs,graphics and likeness of the players.
I also listed the improvements they should make in my last message…..
If your a fan of fifa and you have never played PES,just give it a try and you wont look back, you cant beat the fluid gameplay that konami has mastered, fifa’s getting left behind year after year.

How to play PES 5 on LAN?
Thx
Pro > FIFA
U all know it ^^!
Fifa 07 on the 360 is so much better than that of pro 6 on the same consol. I played both and the game play of fifa is so much more relistic than that of pro 6, the visuals/graphics are much more enhanced on fifa than pro as well. over the past 2 years pro has dominated fifa, however, now the next gen consols have(360) and are going to (ps3) come out, fifa will and has got the edge over its rivals.
Dont Believe you rishi, everybody knows that PES has got better gameplay no matter what console.
