Speaking out to the former PS2/WE9 crew...

What next gen system are you guys going with? PS3 right? :)

I hope to be a part of whatever PS3 league you guys may be setting up, if any. WE9 was so fun :D

360 my man.

As for the US in the World Cup uhhh yeah there's no luck involved. We're getting creamed in at least 2 matches. Samoa is our only real shot at victory.

Ah that's a shame. I'm also up for some PES league action.

Hey at least you guys are in it. Plus the more you play the better you get. More good teams=great for rugby. But yeah this is getting too far OT.

WE9 leagues were awesome. A lot of work, but a lot of fun too and a really great group of people considering that was the first GAF league of any sort for the game.

I will likely get the PS3 version unless the 360 version is markedly better. My brother only has a 360 as well, so that's another slight consideration--not as important as my love for the PS2/3 controllers for the series however.

I'm also going to try to import the Japanese version just to get an early taste of the game for once. Will probably double-dip as long as it's as good as I hope.
 
We're gonna need a Rugby World Cup thread soon...with Setanta now available in Canada I'll be able to watch a decent number of the games.

Yet you'd get Fifa if it plays like Pro Evo?

Why not? The gameplay is basically FIFA's only weakness. Presentation and option wise it rapes PES in the mouth. Full EPL license, full Champions League, proper World Cup, MLS (Toronto FC motherfucker). PES would instantly become irrelevant. Unless you're gonna try and make an argument that these things don't matter, in which case you might as well recommend Mario Strikers to me as another alternative.

I've only bought two FIFA games in my lifetime...'95 on the Genny (used) and 2001 on PC (also used). I've bought the last four WE games, so I think I've supported Konami pretty well despite an almost henious lack of meaningful progress made in the series during that span, the sort that would give a certain company endless ridicule if "EA Sports" had been on the cover.

This time out I'm buying both games...and we will see how things go. But I have no affinity to Konami, and I'm not gonna keep buying these games blindly if the improvements are only going to be marginal (or regress), while FIFA closes the gap.

And really, licensing Tottenham ahead of Arsenal is almost the last straw...it's just insulting. Maybe that's why I'm more anti-PES worshipping than usual.

:lol :lol :lol PS2 or 360 for me...and as of now I'm not sure which version I'm grabbing. My bro might buy FIFA for 360, so that would sort that out.

I'll happily start one once I've graduated from junior member. But that may take awhile :lol

Edit: Sorry mods, this is the last OT comment I swear.

I'm getting FIFA for 360 so if you want to see Dichio and the crew get whooped virtually you know what to get now.:D We can even get a few Bolton - Arsenal matches on.
 
since i've got myself a 360 now, i suppose i'm on board!

are 360 games region-free? could i import the PAL version or would that be silly given the dimensions? would the JPN version play on an NA 360?

only a few games are region free on 360 WE was nto one of them tho :(
 
I'm probably gonna get the PS3 version, but only cuz i'm worried about kits. I'm a pretty hardcore dude when it comes to kits. With the recent counters to gamerscore whoring are there going to be any obstacles trying to get kits from the net into the 360 version?
 
Osorio said:
Nah. We don't have to play with armor on.:D

Of course not, you only have to defend against skinny British dudes, not 400 pound linebackers. Zidane would have been kindling if he'd headbutted your average NFL linebacker.

Master league? Admittedly Pro has shit presentation but so does FIFA,you can polish a turd as much as you want but its still a turd.

You think Pro 6 shows a Lack of progress from Pro 2? Really? Go back and dig out 2 and see the difference.

Cheaper licensing surely?

PS3 here (mostly for the pad). WE9 league was a blast. Hopefully the console split won't be too bad.

You forgot 'roided'.

So you're saying both are shit? Maybe I should just get Mario Strikers...

Yeah, because I keep the old games. :lol I certainly don't recall any drastic improvements though.


Cerebral Assassin said:

Well, 'Tottenham' and 'cheap' do go well together...
 
Shinobi said:

That's because there hasn't really been any revolutionary improvements between two games, but when you go back and play PES2 or 3 and compare it to 5 or 6 you see that the difference is massive. The only thing that is almost exactly the same is ML, but now that seems to be changing with the Next-gen games this year.
 
Crap... so I need to wait until February then.... WORLDWIDE RELEASE KONAMI MAKE IT HAPPEN

I'll just go to the import shops after the JPN PS3 release... and loiter haha

Osorio, looks like it's just you and me, bud! Astro, I'll miss you. :`(
 
:lol You actually thought I was serious about Mario Strikers? I don't even own a Wii for fuck's sake...nor do I want one.

The sarcasm detector on this board really needs a tune up...

Ironically, I often find myself thinking this. Although for entertainment purposes I'd say it's at exactly the right level.
