Pros
The most lifelike, individualized A.I. in any sports game, ever; fantastic
club management tools and options; highly polished animations and graphics.

Cons
Will make you angry at your other sports games for being "dumb"; no online
play; commentary could be ramped up.

That's not the first time I hear that. Still, that doesn't make it true.
FIFA can't even touch the Pro Evo games (or Winning Eleven in other parts of
the world) on gameplay, which in truth is what really counts in a game.

My question mark was because we just spent a week arguing this and he put a
punctuation mark that would only make sense as sarcasm to someone who had
followed the thread. I have heard people prefer Fifa as well though

Fair enough. I think the critics are divided though

I like the free kicks in PES, and the licensing doesn't bother me. I'll
admit the commentary is laughably bad, but it wouldn't be a PES game without
bad commentary!
