FIFA 15 Vs. PES 2015 Demo Review

Gamerscore Whores writes "The FIFA 15 & PES 2015 Demo's do battle, which one is better? This review is fully impartial with the reviewer having bought both titles for many consecutive years and a combined experience of football games since 1990."

[the_dark_one]

are we seriously doing this now!!!???? reviews of demos?????? what is wrong with you people!!!!

[GamerscoreWhores]

It is listed as an opinion. A demo is the consumers taste of what the full game is like and new hardware versions of football games have been notoriously dicey. I think it's warranted.

[nX]

It is warranted but I don't agree with most of it. If you ask me PES blows FIFA out of the water this year. PES14 was a nightmare but they've made substantial improvements since then and FIFA feels even more like scripted ping pong than last year.

[badz149]

I think you missed the point of this. it's less about the review and more about the gameplay IMO which should be known already from the demos. I have always been a huge FIFA fan all these time but after trying them both this time around, I can't believe that I seriously think that PES is the better game based on what I've played so far. FIFA15 feels "sloppy" if you know what I mean. I think I'm going PES this year.

[DeadRabbits]

I only ever found football games as good as how drunk I was and with who I was playing with!

[UltraNova]

So If you were called to review the PT: Silent hills demo you wouldn't be able to? I mean 10/10 comes to mind pretty much easy within the first 10 mins playing it...

But yeah in the larger scope of things reviewing and over-hyping/condemning a game by its demos is wrong.

[masterfox]

theres a PES 2015 demo ?, off to PSN!

[GamerscoreWhores]

Only on Hong Kong PSN accounts at the moment.

[Minimox16]

in ps4?

[voodoochild346]

@Minimox16

Yes. I've seen people playing the demo on xbone and ps4. Just make a Hong Kong account and download from the store.

[Minimox16]

@voodoochild346

Thanks :D i will try that

[Baka-akaB]

Both got issues imo , some are the usual same . Gameplay wise , fifa is ok , nice even . But pes allow better controls and you've got less and less the feeling of a completely scripted experience . As always , except games like PES14 were so plagued with technical issues and other stuff , that it wasnt transpiring

[iistuii]

Gotta say I'm impressed with PES this year. It's by far the best version I've played over the other poor attempts they have made over the last few years. I really am considering picking it up as well as Fifa this year. Obviously I can only go by the demo gameplay. I know I'll need an option file but it's nice they've come back & hopefully can build from this.

[Baka-akaB]

i think i'll get both . i'm just worried about one thing , wich is why i'll wait for the first few weeks on pes : modding on the ps4 .

I never had to wonder yet on ps4 ... so i dunno if it will be as easy to mod than the ps3 versions .

Another worry would truly be online , but i mostly play offline with friends , and quite frankly given Konami's horrible track record in online modes for pes , i'm not holding my breath

[dodgemoose]

Fifa 15 demo feels pretty solid to me. I think I'll pick up the full game this year.

[OculusRift]

I don't know what you've played, but 15 (TO ME) feels just like 13. The aside from the graphics bump and animations tweaks, I don't see anything new. PES on the other hand seems to be getting everything right so far.

[dodgemoose]

I haven't played Fifa 13, so I can't judge. I only played the demo version of Fifa 14 and prior to that, I hadn't played Fifa since the PS2 days.

[ssj27]

you got to try few hrs of PES15 if you like FIFA15 you will love PES15 is just a much better game in general

[dodgemoose]

When they release it on the store, I will.

[TKCMuzzer]

He says the Fifa animations are better, I have to strongly disagree, even after playing the Fifa demo some of the animations are clunky, yes there are more of them but at times it just looks unnatural and as for the dodgy body models, there are some weird looking players in Fifa and Messi looks a giant when actually playing in game.
The one problem I find with Fifa and always have, there many moments were I feel I have no control, that I can't stop a gaol no matter what. I like Fifa but some of the issues from a couple of years back are still there and instead of sorting them they just add more features. I always love the one where a playing lets the ball come over his head and then somehow manages to chest it down as it goes away from him, classic football video game error.

[ssj27]

whoever disagree elaborate please I want to hear why someone theres to disagree with the facts this gentleman has state ..

and obviously the guy who made the video is a jerk.. and don't know what he is talking about.. maybe huge fifa fanboy or paid by EA.. PES15 is far a better game.. fifa is fun yeah but PES15 goes beyond that and there is a obvious reason why they have won every awards ever since gamecom

[Speak_da_Truth]

Wow!!! Fifa animations look old to me and aren't lifelike. Those same animations have been there since the beginning of the ps3 and 360 generation. In PES 2015, each player from Neynar, Ronaldo to xavi, Messi all look and play like their real life counter part. For me I played the Fifa 15 demo and it's not what I personally want so I'll wait until I play PES 2015 demo in Na before I make my decision as of now PES looks more intriguing and lifelike than what I've played of Fifa 15.

[jlm9]

If you have an Xbox 1 simply set the region to hong kong and download the PES 15 demo then set it back to whatever region you are in.

[fxa5209]

Who is this moron doing the review? Game play is what really counts and PES is miles ahead of clunky and laggy Fifa.

[philm87]

It's always the same argument. Fifa now concentrates on the players having realistic touches and movement so the ball doesn't stick to the players feet (like it used to terribly), fair enough if you don't like the realism though. Adds to the skill level so you have to be good at passing to do well and move the ball around quickly, as with real football.

[ssj27]

The guy must be a huge ifa fanboy who cna't accept the fact that PES15 is superior this year or maybe a EA paid guy..
just play the demos for hrs and preferible with friends and you and everyone will agree that PES15 is fat superiour then fifa15 WITH IS ALSO A FUN GAME BUT pes15 IS BEYOND BETTER

[cfc83]

I'd say the pes demo is better. The physics feel better weighted.

[nix]

Always been a fan of PES.. I like how people are liking the PES15. Is this gen going to be about the return of PRO EVOLUTION SOCCER? I would hope so and i would like it to be.

[GamerscoreWhores]

The Gameplay verdict was based on my entertainment preference. I found FIFA 15 more entertaining. As a 'football simulator' PES 2015 takes it, but then some people prefer Forza to Gran Turismo because Gran Turismo is too simulated for them, you know?

[voodoochild346]

Some people like easy games. I understand. I guess I can see the fun in through ball spam to score goals. I'll be getting pes though...

[philm87]

Have you played the Fifa 15 Demo? So realistic. Much harder for through balls etc. now also, big improvement on that side of things. Looking forward to trying the PES demo but can't see it touching Fifa, brilliant if it offers some healthy competition though.

[PX54]

@philm87 - Fifa gameplay is poor (can't see how they can give it to Fifa). As stated in the video, it's all about pace. That's not how football is played. You have to work the ball around the pitch, build up play and pick the right passes. Fifa doesn't do any of that - no-one moves into space ahead of you to play the ball (unless they're already ahead), which is poor when your striker has to drop deep to receive the ball, then you've not no option but to run through the defence - totally unrealistic. Players always get in your way too, instead of moving into space for a pass.
All you end up doing in Fifa is playing lobbed through balls to your wingers or strikers and you're through on goal, whereas PES requires some tactical thinking.

[cube63]

@PX54: At the end of the day, it's the way you decide to play it. If you play Fifa as a footballer, you think and play professionally you won't have to run about the pitch. Naturally you find yourself running around cos it's easier.

I think they got it right this time it's more challenging and not easy to score but they still have a lot of work to do.
