What is the Better Futbol (soccer) game? PES or FIFA?

[whalers90]

i currently own FiFa since that is what i was raised on playing. but lately i have become increasingly frustrated by the Inept AI in Fifa.

the team plays the dumbest defense ever ( which is let the other team walk in and score ) plus a majority of the throws by AI teammates get thrown in & quickly passed back to the thrower and he is still not in bounds.

the clearing attempts by the defensive players is very questionable also. but i am not sure if i should consider, try or even buy PES17.

i looked online to see how the games are rated vs each other and most of the reviews pretty much call it a draw. PES wins "these 4 categories" and fifa wins the "other 4 categories" in 1 review and the next as them reversed.

i would rather get some feedback here to help me get a better idea.

thanks

I think the best time to jump over the fence is when you think one game is getting stale, so it may be best to try the other option. I was like that with PES 14 (which was really bad that year) and switched over to FIFA, both games like what you say were better in different ways. But it's just my preference that I would go with PES every time because it gives me that buzz where FIFA fails to.

You can check out the you tube videos where there's a guy called thetruebrits who plays both FIFA & PES, so from that You Might be able to see which one is best.

Good luck.

when in doubt, fuck EA Sports.

I did some research the other day, didn't know as with the nfl & nhl & mlb that EA sports has certain licenses for futbol also. PES does not have the EPL teams, EA does & that's what I like playing with. EA corners the market with licenses & all other games better than theirs are fucked. like 2K football was when EA purchased the NFL license.
