PES 2010 is announced as (finally) the return of the king, and it looks like it's at least partially the case. I'll let you decide by yourself with this video.
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (2 Weeks ago)

for me its all about shooting from outside the box - big letdown in last years fifa
Saying that, right now FIFA is getting my money. Although PES 2010 is shaping up to be the best PES this generation so far, it still doesn't compare to FIFA 10.
Oh, and cheers Gamersyde for this and FIFA footage. Much appreciated!
Hmm, that's disappointing. It's going to be a lot closer this year than it was last year though - the demos will once again decide my choice.
FIFA 10 is just on a whole other level.
ps. the puns were somewhat accidental if you'll believe that
Does Torres have a giraffe neck?
As for this video, the graphics have improved. Nice to see. But they've only improved to a certain extent and it's not as drastic as some made out in the media. Faces are great, but that's expected, although they are still very static and this is something Fifa's faces has over that stuck-on-photo look. Graphically, it's hard not to compare to Fifa, and these do hold up, but in no way are they better or even on par. Fifa's visuals better this in every aspect; modeling, lighting, texturing etc etc.
One thing that brings the look of this title right down on top of the fact that you can tell that's it's using an extremely archiac engine, is that the animations are still a joke. I know there could be still time for them to be fixed, but we're told that this build is the latest out there and that the new animations were to be implemented in time for GC. So what's the deal? Are these the new animations that are meant to blow our socks off? If you look at the players walking out and the little cut-scenes, then yes, they do have some new animations there, and I hope for Konami's sake that this isn't what they are talking about.
From this gameplay snippet from such a late build, I can safely tell that this game is getting NOWHERE NEAR Fifa 10, and probably isn't even getting near Fifa 09 nevermind. Sorry, Seabass - nice try, but Fifa 10 is at least two or three years (or more) ahead of this effort. You've improved your game, but it's far, far too little too late now. Fifa 10's trailer blew me away. This did nothing more than ring alarm bells.
van der Sar's AI needs some improvment :/ and his animations too

Of course 09's shooting was annoying, but 08's was 5 times worse. However, all the other aspects of 09 blew every other version of PES this gen out of the water, so I don't see how PES could have edged it for you. I picked up the pad to play the demo for PES 2009 last year, and within 20 seconds I could take no more and turned it off. As disgusted as I was having bought 2008, 2009 felt worse, which was shocking. Never again!
PES will have to do something really revolutionary to draw me back to it. It will have to be almost flawless, and to be honest, from the looks of Fifa 10, that game is beating it to the punch regarding those things.
I even now play Become A Legend in PES 2009, because I enjoy playing a part in a team, but that's about the only thing I actually like about it :/ And, sadly, that does include the gameplay itself as well.
