FIFA is all about expensive face scans... the commentary is always top-notch, the kits and stadia are always up to date... but then it stops at that... players' face likeness doesn't translate to real players' likeness... and also FIFA is always lacking in the gameplay department. enter PES 2016... d best football simulation... the player movements are replicated with uncanny accuracy... for any sports game, the gameplay is always key. it's d bedrock of everything, nt jst d razzmatazz and glitz. For me, I've played both FIFA 16 and PES 2016, and d difference is 7up! FIFA is for football club fans... PES is for gamers!

In FIFA even if my shots are Assisted, in a way i still get to control my shot power buh in PES even on Manual, tapping Shot is terrible.
the ball goes like, u gyz knw what its called na "bullet" (even on PES 16)! Dont you gyz find that to be wierd? Infact we play ball, which of you can fire the kind of shot they pull out on PES?
Physics: Science students remember Projectiles, Isnt ball a projectile? buh i pull out a shot and the ball lands like a stone dat was thrown from d top of a building.....
If I am wrong please prove me wrong!

Exactly, these fifa fanatics speak like they've never watched a game of football. EA pays a lot of attention to the presentation and interface of the menus but Konami focuses on where it matters the most "The Pitch". Y'all need to watch replays in PES and see how the players momentarily raise their heads and blink their eyes in search of teammates making brilliant runs. Konami pays meticulous attention to on-the-pitch detail and i think thats what one would expect for a simulation of the great game of football. If you want to play good El clasico quality football, play PES. If you want to simply enjoy football in all its aesthetics(off pitch basically), go for the EA product. Whatever floats your boat.

Bro, You cant say Pes on pitch is better.. come on man, have you played Fifa 16 on Ps3 or 4 compared to Pes 16... And mind you, Fifa has introduced us to the game of women football... If Pes on-pitch was so great, i think celebs and players alike will enjoy playing it...
Guess what?, Fifa hosted a Game World Cup immediately after the 2014 World Cup right there in Brazil.. that shows you how far they have gone, i doubt if there's anything like a Pes World Cup .. i aint downplaying Pes, but the truth has to be said...
Check out KSI on youtube, he has made a fortune out of playing Fifa... #TeamFifa16 #peace

Tzeronix:




lmaooo what are u saying. Why don't you drive a Ferrari? I mean most celebs & players like it better than a Toyota. Haha u are one funny man. I saw u post something like this earlier on in this forum & i had a good laugh. You clearly don't know what u like, if celebs were playing PES you prolly would be saying the same thing abt the game. And i am tired of hearing about KiS or whatever his name is. Kis is an individual and has his own preferences, choice is subjective. Again this proves the fact that u don't know what u want lol. Fifa game worldcup? Lol let EA be using those things to deceive y'all

I agree with ya, its cuz ppl started playing PES in PS2 too long for dem not to see d difference in 2 ov em, I started with PES on PS 2,,,, but gaming with a PC changed that thought in me that PES was the best.... infact i played soccer games from SNES, to gameboy to N64 using emulators on PC, i remember playing ISS on N64, it was cool, yeah buh dat was back den, PES was cool buh dat was wen FIFA wasnt as popular in Naija, nd even nw cuz ppl hav gotn used to PES gameplay they fall sick playing FIFA cuz they think it sucks (gameplay) nd too difficult

and dont gt me wrong, i love PES buh FIFA is "the game"

GloryIsaac:


You seem to misunderstand the fact that the references I made were just to backup the point that majority of people ( even the popular ones) prefer FIFA to PES.... In the case of referring to a Ferrari, you lost it fulltime.. Most people want to drive such a car but can't afford it, Toyota is used only b'cos its economy-friendly... Such doesn't apply to FIFA and PES where both are affordable and despite PES being cheaper, people still go for FIFA.. KSI is an individual, I agree.. but I doubt if he'll be raking in millions from YouTube if he was playing PES, I was shocked when I saw the rate at which people watch his videos.. Can someone be this rich just from playing FIFA? a video game...
I ain't trying to push you over to the FIFA World, I'm just saying that I prefer FIFA to PES, and its clearly b'cos of what I see in it...
I'm pretty sure that plenty Nigerians started with PES on PS2, but when PS3 came out.. FIFA became King..
Now PES is gradually emulating FIFA b'cos they can't keep up with the game... PES players can now control their own celebrations, maybe next year they'll bring out Women Football...

EA sports is a better structured body compared to Konami[a random Asian vid game company]. Thats why they get licenses quite easily. I doubt we'd be seeing another PES installment next year tho. There's a lot of crisis going on at Konami rn bt if we do see one, i bet EA would hv bought off licensing rights for all the popular female football clubs. It all Depends on one's preference after all. If all of these consumer-attracting innovations are enough for u to sacrifice gameplay that very closely simulates real football, then fine. And when i talk abt PES being better on-pitch, i mean the entire flow of the game and not just goal celebrations and cut-scenes. Like PES is focused on slow build up play, but in FIFA pace alone can win you matches. Like the stamina system in FIFA is just broken. You can have a full back run back and forth the wings severally and at the 83rd min, he'd be running at pretty much the same speed.

GloryIsaac:

Consumer-attracting innovations?, like seriously?.... We're talking about something thats made to be entirely realistic here... Besides, Pace alone cant win you matches in FIFA... there has to be a tactical buildup, from passes to player positioning... thats why teams like Tottenham can beat Real Madrid, the gamer has to be very tactical and not rely just on his superstars abilities...
And as for stamina, if you keep running with your fullbacks everytime.. they'll definitely get injured or start performing below their abilities... thats why gamers sub any tired player immediately unless its a superstar ...

fizzy123:
I do compliment KONAMI for choosing good soudtracks, jeez i hate almost all of FIFA 16's soundtrack

fizzy123:
I do remember that when a player's stamina gauge becomes low, depending on Injury type, he cud get a muscle pull before the end of d game, and i also remember dat on FIFA i put a player at 60th min. he has much strength to chance weak players

Its sad that the nairaland gaming community is so underpopulated...which makes threads like this really boring.

Tzeronix:


Yeah yeah i made it a practice to always bring on a very pacy winger off the bench at the 73rd min so he can beat those weak ass fullbacks very easily lol. Have u stopped gaming?

Its so unfortunate... If it was Romance or Biafra-related issues, you could easily start an e-war here..
