WC writes: Whilst it has been a number of years since Pro Evo has outshone FIFA in all aspects except an official licence, and (cough) sales, the arrivals of the demos this year have made me question myself once again. Do I go with FIFA, with which I have spent so much time these last three to four years? Or do I go with Pro Evo, my old friend who appears to be on the road to recovery after his stint in rehab?
Put those knives down, but I think I’m going home to Konami.
And here follows my 4 reasons why PES 2013 will be better than FIFA 13.
Games Asylum: "Outdated football games are a common sight when scouring jumble sales, car boots and charity shops for bargain price video games. Entire shelves filled with decade-old FIFA and PES games spread across a dozen formats. Often they end up in bargain bins, sitting alongside unwanted celebrity fitness DVDs and seemingly random TV show box sets. But here’s the thing. Not all football games gathering dust in the likes of Oxfam are in fact worthless."
Just who is buying FIFA 13 on Wii U? We may never know, but there are more people buying that than there are Bayonetta 2 and Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric.
Sonic Boom is riding off the popularity of the TV show; it's a bad game.
And as for FIFA?
Well, guess that goes to show that there's a lot of older gamers on Wii U that wanted FIFA, then; sports games generally do out-sell action games, and Platinum isn't known for large sales in the first place.
I'm not worried for Bayonetta. It'll hit that 1M mark by the middle of next year, surely, at its current pace.
are seriously trying to downplay Bayonetta 2 with sales
In Fails of the Weak #210, Jack and Geoff bring you fails in Sniper Elite 3, FIFA 13, Sportsfriends, Destiny, Halo: Reach, and FIFA 14.
Stop living in the past. The last truly excellent PES was 5. There hasn't been a decent PES game this whole generation. Considering what it is up against this one doesn't stand a chance either.
Ultimate Team is only in FIFA and that's all I play lol.
PES Won't win, purely because of sales. Fifa is too well established at this point, regardless of bad AI, bad physics, retarded moments throughout.
But, it's always had official teams, "Man Red" was never a turn on.
When will you guys realise it's about the gameplay. Pes is back
Unfortunely, gamers tend to be a fan boy of some game. Few people know how to balance their comments and base their arguments. "I like FIFA, so FIFA its the best." Its sad.
