Best football game for the PS2

**Countyman** · 19/04/2004, 1:22 PM

..either ISS Pro evo 3 , FIFA 2004 or TIF .

Personally for sheer playability then ISS wins it for me hands down although the licensing issue spoils it a bit ( just like real life

FIFA is sooo slow compared to ISS although it has all the stadiums and correct player names and teams etc but when it comes down to kicking your mates ass then ISS is the best for all round believable action.

TIF is good too with some nice touches although the players movements and scoring can be a bit predictable.

any thoughts?

ISS Pro Evo without a doubt. I'll put up a poll for ya

I'm a FIFA man meself, always have been. TIF is decent as well, I've never loved ISS though.

Has to be PES, the others don't even come close imo.

**Ruairi** · 20/04/2004, 12:36 PM

PES all the way. No other game I';ve ever played has come close to stealing as much of my life from me.

Disagree with ye there. The PS2 wins hands down, if even on the sheer number of games available for it. Plus, the XBox has head frying control pads.

I haven't played the lastest version of TIF yet but I love Pro Evo. The gameplay is masterful only thing lacking is the offical rights.

**max power** · 20/04/2004, 10:29 PM

the x box is more powerful and x box live rocks......i have both and the ps2 is covered in dust.......but i agree about the controller, i have the wireless one and its great, puls x box has championship manager and you can save music onto the 40gb hard drive.....

xbox live is great for racing (pgr2) and shud be great with football too

ive always loved the iss games over fifa on all the previous platforms. cant beat 'em

**max power** · 20/04/2004, 10:58 PM

one last thing and sorry for going off topic, but try out espn ice hockey, best game i've ever played....ever

I dont have a clue how people like Pro Ev. **** Grafics, Fake players and fake teams. FIFA without a doubt and isnt the eircom league coming into FIFA 2005!

**Neish** · 21/04/2004, 3:13 PM

PES is un challenged in the playability stakes. However FIFA is the one if you looking for all the players team and competitions etc.

TIF played the 2002 version it alright but nowhere near the other two. Got it shortly after I got the PS2 in a 3 for €50 deal.

the names make **** all difference, whats the point in man utd being called man utd if the playability is crap.

**Slash/ED** · 21/04/2004, 6:56 PM

What difference does a few names, which you can edit, make? Basically what Éanna said

I even managed to get Shels into PES, I'm amazed with how good looking I got the shirt aswell.

**adamcarr** · 21/04/2004, 8:06 PM

Im not saying its a bad game. I just rather playing with Van Nistlerooy instead of Van Nistleraum! It is a good game but I just think FIFA is better

How does it make a difference?! I can't understand your logic. If they were all fake players or you couldn't tell who was who fair enough, but you can tell who the players are so it makes **** all difference. Anyway, just get the patch and you can change the names with that
