I may very well be the only man on earth that doesn't like football and that can't even name all of the players of our national team. FIFA in my opinion is an outdated game whose graphics have not gotten any better compared to the 2004 version and that has quite stiff animations. I like PES though, but only for a day because then again, I don't like football in general.
I've played modern football games such as PES and FIFA but I don't like them. Best football game? One called Kick Off 2 from the early 90's. Sensible Soccer was good too, from the same era.
We like football games in our work office, we currently have a Fifa Euro championship running at the moment. It's a miracle that we get any work done!!
