The game play seems much more complicated, don't think they will ever get back to being better then Fifa.

Thats what makes it better IMO, the more complicated the better so kids wont play it online. FIFA and CoD is more for kids and Battlefield and PES is for the more advanced players.

But for me, PES seems a hell of a lot more arcade, the actual game play is robotic, there's no where near enough freedom and movement in the way players dribble with the ball.

PES when i played it, seemed a hell of a lot easier then FIFA, i played both games on the highest levels, and on PES you just had to make a couple of nice passes and shot from distance and it would go in, on FIFA you have to work for your goal more, i think PES are trying to work on that by making the game play even more complicated.

I've always preferred PES more than FIFA. If anything I've always felt FIFA was a bit arcade like. What I always loved about PES was the momentum your side could build up in a game and really start passing, shooting and pinging the ball all over the field as you dominated the opposition.

I've played all 4 of those games regularly, and I certainly agree on CoD and Battlefield, but not anymore when it comes to FIFA. I think in the last few editions FIFA has overtaken PES when it comes to gameplay and depth. And I used to be a die hard PES fan, but about 2 years ago I switched. PES' development has just stagnated, while FIFA has learned alot from earlier PES editions. And to say it's a kid's game is just way too easy, and not true. I consider myself a hardcore gamer, and I agree that depth is a good thing. But PES in recent years just gave me too many annoyances and flaws, not that FIFA is perfect, but less flawed. One of my main annoyances is that PES gameplay is so rigid compared to FIFA, which is much more fluid.

Me too - always been a fan of PES over FIFA

Just an all round better game for me

Does look amazing. I loved PES 2011, will be looking to get this.

pes was at its best when arsenal had the invincibles, think it was pes 4

started going down hill then and fifa got to grips with things again

fifa is well better now IMO, won't be bothering with pes until it makes massive changes

Playing the Demo on PC as we speak, so far so good.

PES 2012 | Demo Gameplay - First match highlights

at the Manc chants.

Even in virtual reality they've got no songs

Demo on PS3 is 9/10

Keepers are poor, if that's fixed its a 10/10.

PES is back to its best me thinks.

I'll be going back to PES this year.  Always preferred it to be honest, but let the hype lead me to believe FIFA was hugely better last year.  Just hope one day they include some real random elements, blatant ref errors, players making air shots, etc.  Just randomly whack them in.

I was strongly thinking of switching to FIFA this year if the demo for PES didn't impress me. I thought PES2011 was awful, glad 2012 is a huge improvement.

Would of broke me heart to leave PES behind.

Is the demo available for xbox and ps3 yet?

Just downloaded the demo on PS3 and I have to be honest and say I'm living it.

The build up play you can create is amazing. Just beat Napoli with Ac Milan 4-3. Ibra scored a screamer from edge of the area.

Downloaded it for a change (I left PES after 2008) and it's a decent game! Doesn't feel as fluid as Fifa but that's about it.

Second demo is up now.

PC - http://www.konami-pes2012.com/2011/09/the-offical-2nd-pes-2012-demo-is-coming-today-for-ps3-xbox-360-and-pc/

I played the second demo and i was surprised by it. I found it more realistic than FIFA.

Thoughts on the second demo?

I have the complete version (Greece).
Bellamy is unstoppable and Carroll a total beast when it comes to body contact (huge asset due to the new physics of the game).

Sorry for posting the Greek version.
