I'm constantly impressed with the graphical innovations of the FIFA series (obviously helped by their endless sack of cash for buying licencing rights), but there's not been an enjoyable FIFA game since World Cup 98.

Same goes for many thousands of PC owners out there. Just so you know Number 13 that the PS2vsPC thing NEVER worked, my mate has it on PC and has never been able to connect to the PS2 users.

PS2 and PC owners were able to play against each other, but 360 owners weren't able to - I appreciate the engine was a different one for the 360 version, but it still felt like we were being left out. The edit function being stripped to a bare minimum was terrible too, even in the Master League - part of the fun for me in that mode has always been being able to create a team from scratch, name, badge, kit, the lot. I sorely miss that. I also find the game immensely frustrating. The computer's always cheated a little in ISS/Pro Evo games, but in this one it's sometimes god-awful. There have been occasions where I've said out loud "The computer's decided it's going to score now" and there's been nothing I could do short of getting half my defence red-carded to prevent them just taking the ball up the pitch and scoring. Things like that need ironed out, but the features really do need to be brought back up to scratch or the casual punter's going to look at both options and go with EA.

FIFA 08 comes out in the fall sometime right? madden 08 the other "football" comes out in august i think. so id guess maybe somewhere around there, but for somereason a voice in my head is telling me november. im too lazy to look... its quite a few months away and a few big titles will be out before then, definitely so if im correct with the november guess/memory. god im ramble. i cant help it. sorry. i was on the fence whether i should buy this or not, just to fill in bored spots, and i have friend, more of an acquaintance actually, in real life, who plays this all the time, but he played FIFA 07 religiously, and hates pro evo if i remember right. maybe it was winning eleven, but i have a feeling that those are the same thing for some reason. he does play a lot of football games so his opinion does have some bearing i suppose, but after reading this review and reading the comments of a few of you, i guess ill hold off.

Id say it was ok for konami's first attempt at a next gen system. I still play it everyday and had a tourney last night, but PES7 will need improvements in terms of aditional featured but the gameplay is 10/10. As for Champs League i traded in a couple of games and picked this up, it just gives a change from rvo, id say its sort of half way between fifa and pro evo, its enjoyable and the ultimate teams over xbox live makes it a laugh, id say 6-10 is a bit harsh id go at least 7 maybe 8.

Yeah I was kinda pissed that it's a stripped down version.... and they haven't really updated the graphics too much. And not having an Edit mode is just nutz. But even a stripped down PES6 is 100 times better than any EA footy game. Well I like PES 6.

I don't see what people see in that game (I'm referring to PES 6). PS. Don't flame me Tucky :P I agree with you. I don’t see what people see in that game (I’m referring to PES 6).

Pro Evo 6 was an abomination. Sub-standard and half-arsed at best. I hope they raise the bar with 7. Konami better deliver with the next Pro Evo game or they’ll be in danger of losing their crown.
