"So here we are, the month of September where we have lots of excitement for the latest Fifa & PES games coming out. “Fifa’s the best!”…“No, PES is way better!” You constantly hear the same thing every year and it’s damn right annoying. But this year I am taking a big step myself in moving over from the usual Fifa release to eFootball PES 2020. I have always been a Fifa man (since ‘94), even though I did have a brief stint with Pro Evo 4 back in the day but this year I am converting over without even a care for what’s it called? Oh ye Fifa blah blah." Callum @ Thumb Culture
PES and FIFA were the true football rivals of gaming for two decades, but the landscape of football games has changed dramatically in recent years. GameSpew looks back on the rivalry, and where the franchises are now.
No contest since 2012, PES/Pro Evo dominates FIFA in gameplay but fails in UX/UI and licenses. Graphics are a slight nod to FiFA.
Interesting read, some stuff not factually correct though.
EA didnt lose the rights to the name FIFA. They chose not to relicense due to the extortionate fee that they were being charged.
The bottom line is true though, EA are comfortable and put what feels like little to no effort into each release. There is still so much that can be done with this game and yet, we see so little.
After its official launch, FIFA 20 took very little time to get on the first place both in digital and retail salesl. Pro Evolution Soccer 2020 defenders were unable to stop the superior enemy strikers.
Experience the most realistic and authentic football game with eFootball PES 2020.
