PES 2008: best PC sports game ever?

So have they found a way to mod the PC version yet? I know they have modded past versions.

Isn't Ronaldinho suppose to wear his black nike boots?

No, last month, Ronaldinho uses this "red boots with Nike logo in gold"

But i edit this, in original game, this boot not exists!

I've got the game, and I've been a little disappointed of the completely new gameplay. Indeed the graphics are great, probably the best soccer game on this side. However, the gameplay is too fast, not that realistic, I think. PES5 and PES6 used to have a slower gameplay and keeping realism. PES2008 isn't a bad game, but isn't the best either, even Seabass admitted that he would release 2008 quickly so as to concentrate on 2009. And a little question, where is the proudly named "Teamvision" ? When I see me winning with huge scores (highest difficulty), I really wonder... Actually, not only in France, but in other countries, this game created a new topic, which is "Fifa is better than PES" at least in the Next Gen consoles.

Nice gfx. Drool worthy.

I still think people are over hyping Fifa, because of all the licenses they have. Fifa isn't that good , even on next gen consoles. Feels a little unrealistic and the ball bounces weird. PES certainly beats Fifa in almost every extent. Of course Fifa has more licenses and more modes to play. So that might be the reason that people are treating Fifa better then the PES series. At least I see it that way.

Well, I've played both. FIFA on next-gen this year is definitely slower and feels more realistic, yet the gameplay still seems like same old FIFA. I dig the graphics though, they are beautiful.

With Pro Evo 2008, it looks graphically similar to FIFA, the gameplay is a bit too quick for me but the artificial intelligence is great. I can't make a clear judgement between the two, since I've played both of them only once for a couple of hours or so.

No, I don't think what you say is correct. Actually, I don't care about Fifa's licenses. I've always preferred PES anyway, and I've got each version since ISS 1 on PSone. A patched PES is much better to me. And about the modes to play, well the Master League is enough to me.
The 2008 version of PES is more a transition version if I could say. Last year on PC there were PS2 graphics, and not only graphics, it was simply the PS2 game on PC actually. When you see Seabass making a huge change like that on PC, for people who have never played Next Gen versions, it's quite surprising, and even shocking. (it was my case)
I explain it in detail :
- the graphics are different and I've had the impression of playing another game, I was like "what's this game ? It's not PES "
- the new ball physics is quite different, when you control the ball, and everything, but it's not that shocking. Actually the game is much easier than before lol
- Many bugs, for example : while playing on low resolution, some technical moves aren't possible to do (don't know how they call it in English, it's called "double contact" in French, when you quickly control the ball with your right foot and then give it to your left foot (this is probably not clear))
- goalkeepers are sh*t, see well-known forums such as Evo-web or PESfan to see if I'm wrong
- during replays, players are running with small steps (is that correct English ?), not so realistic, but not shocking ingame, actually.

Oh well there are many other things which have surprised me, but I don't remember of all of them.

Oh yeah I forgot, don't even try to compare Fifa and PES on PC, you can't compare them lol I think PES is much better.

Heh , I don't even have to play PES on PC to know that its much better then Fifa. I do prefer the PES series and the only thing that really bothers me are the licenses. I do laugh when I see the alternate names Konami comes up with. I noticed the double contact thing and you're right about it. Though I don't really bother with those little things. They got a lot of things right, they will get the other details next year. And yes, I am an optimist.

Yeah you're right, these are little things but the fact is that I use that technique a lot, and I can only play on low res, so it bothers me a little Anyway even the computer can't make that technique, and that makes me laugh
What difficulty do you play on ?

I play it on the hardest level, I did kinda forgot whats called though , since I haven't touched the game for quite some time now. I still prefer human opponents over computer ones any day though.

Is the game worth getting for 360?
Because I have read mixed reviews and I'm confused.

All I know is that Fifa 08 on PS3 > Konami's cartoony game, even though I enjoy playing PES and I did change to it for 2 years but now I'm back to Fifa.

^ Why? Care to elaborate?

It's just the way I see it in my eyes. Fifa has improved alot during this years title and even Fifa 07, for me, was a stepping stone to better things to come and that's why I reverted back to the EA Sports title.
