Thought I'd try something new this year. Used to play PES a long time ago and has since been playing FIFA. Played both demos this year and felt more enjoy playing PES, so I bought it.
Instant regret.
The game engine is by far better, PES is a better at football and I have no doubt about it. Especially AI in terms of positioning and running. I like to play short passing games and take my time but it is hard in FIFA because the AI is poor, whereas in PES I was amazed by the contrast. So much smoother passing game! I can't dribble cone even if I wanted to, but at least I can pass the ball around it.
I hate playing against CPU. It is either playing with a friend or online, otherwise I don't play. I may add that I play irregularly (like one game a week). But there is no freaking anyone else playing this game online it seems. I sit like a dumb f**k for 20 minutes waiting to play someone. I've even started playing FIFA16 once because I got so annoyed. I don't wanna spend another five zillion bucks on a game I don't play frequently so I am stuck with this piece of crap. Yes, I want to add, this is of course not PES fault but of the lack of players. Nevertheless it seriously annoys me. If you are going to play against CPU - take this game over FIFA every day of the week. If you are looking for jabbering online, go for FIFA.
