Throughout the years PES and Fifa have always been battling and since the 1990s both games have been fighting for supremacy in the soccer/ football gaming world. There are fans of both games that argue continuously about the more supreme game. Many even widely agree that PES was the superior title on all generations prior to the current generation of platforms. The current-gen was dominated by Fifa in terms of sales and reviews, however, many PES fans will still argue that PES was still the superior title throughout generation. PES fans generally say that PES is more of a simulation as opposed to Fifa, which is more arcade-like leading to PES having the better experience.
Now with the dawn of the next gaming generation, we have both soccer games returning this year. According to gameplay footage that we saw recently from E3 2013, PES seems to have been drastically improved graphically than in previous years as a result of Konami's new Fox Engine. Fifa on the other hand graphically is similar if not identical to fifa 13 and 12. Being that both games are being released for our current xbox 360s and ps3s there is no hardware advantage on either side. With the Fox Engine so drastically Improving the graphics of PES, while looking at a graphics comparison for both games, in my opinion I would say graphically PES is better this year. However, one should not only use graphics to determine the quality of a game but also its gameplay.
The PES Trailer features highlights of new game mechanics such as the new M.A.S.S (Motion and Stability System) responsible for dealing with collisions and physicality between players. There is also constant illustrations of the games new deft touch mechanic responsible for ball control and dribbling. These systems from my perspective seem to have been implemented very well by Konami and really raise my anticipation for the game even more.
However, looking at the Fifa trailer I see not much improvements from previous years even from a gameplay standpoint. EA constantly refers to features that were previously available in past Fifa games such as protecting the ball and creating chances. Looking at the trailer I really did not see anything new and innovative, and this makes me wonder if Fifa 14 is going to be a real improvement upon past games.
But essentially it is your opinion on which game is better from an aesthetic point-of-view that will cause you to buy either Fifa or PES this year. Opinions are extremely divided on this topic, however one thing we are always sure of is that both games will have features that will appeal to their specific fan base. So whether you are a Fifa guy or a PES guy, game on this year with your favorite title as long as your are having fun.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
PES 2014 for this year .. cuz i see hardwork here
fifa now its like COD .. nothing but repeating itself
OMG thank you. A blog with a different topic.
I'm really not sure which will be better. Hopefully there will be demos out so we can decide for ourselves.
FIFA 14 for me on next gen console only because EA have exclusive leagues/clubs
PES 2014
Fox Engine FTW!
Yup I'll be getting Fifa on next gen so Pes will be out awhile before then so I'll pick that up on current gen.
Haven't played alot of PES in recent years so I'm looking forward to a new experience.
