    PES is one of my favorite sports games ever, it's tough to accept that it's basically gone. I just felt it always had a more realistic feel than FIFA. I also liked the way that you could create or alter almost everything. FIFA is really the only choice at this point. It's OK, and the presentation is always stellar, but the gameplay never has measured up to PES. Seems like the decline in football games mirrors the decline in all sports games. It just feels like developers don't put a lot of work into sports games. As you alluded to in the video, there are countless features that were available on systems that were much less powerful than today's consoles that are no longer included.

    No way man. It died in 2008 like the author of the video said and I completely agree with him. If you haven't lived through the 90s you just can't imagine how groundbreaking the ISS Pro Evo series was. The series became mainstream when PES 3 finally became available on PC but before that only die hard fans knew what it was all about. As for the Pro Evo 2 series some of the stuff it had was just crazy. If back in 2000 you came from FIFA to ISS: PE2 your jaw would drop at how crazy good it was. It literally made FIFA games that came out 4-5 years later irrelevant.

    Pes is more realistic but realistic football is boring when we're talking about videogames. I love the realism in pace, touches and overall movement of the players but it can get slow and repetitive while sometimes it makes me feel like I don't have the control/freedom over the players. I grew up with PES from 06 to 2013. After 2014 it went downhill

    FIFA has a lot of problems similar to other modern online games (such as COD), the drive towards store content and in game transactions rather than providing a quality game and the manipulative matchmaking. Ultimate team transfer market used to be fun as you could occasionally pick up a bargain or make a killing on a sale, now its just very bland. And the Career Mode/Manager Mode just hasn't really developed enough.

    And worst thing is, they know they'll make the sales. Look at the big KZreadrs, spending thousands a week on FP, buying the game every year regardless of how bad it was the year before because "they need the game to make money" (basically you've gotten at a point where you made a terrible decision basing your channel on one game only...). Those big KZreadrs that complain about the game being bad are a big part of that exact problem. And because of FUT, nothing else gets much attention cause why would they. Even looking at FUT itself, it used to be fun, every now and then some cool cards would come out. Now we have promos every week with million of SBCs and we'll only get more cause the more we get the more money they make.

    I've been playing FIFA since FIFA 06, starting on the PS2. I've seen features come and go, such as team creation and player creation. When I played for a youth team, I spent hours recreating the team badge and kit colours and creating each one of my teammates to put in the squad, stats and faces. I was never too into online play and FUT wasn't too appealing, I only made a FUT team after increasing peer pressure from my teammates in FIFA 13 on Xbox 360 (even then I only ever played against the AI). But I could see the direction FIFA was heading from there, FUT is essentially legal gambling for minors and I pumped a fair amount of money into it. What I never understood was why people were so excited to buy the new game (which was essentially the old game, often with features removed) and start the entire process again from scratch. Most of my FIFA playing has always been single player, I liked tournaments and career mode or even just kickoff. I play it to relax, playing FIFA is second-nature to me. But some of my favourite features aren't there anymore, single player just doesn't bring in the cash like FUT does. I'm really hoping that the new EA Sports FC game will re-add some of those old features and be more customisable with less pressure to be realistic. I also hope they'll release it and update it rather than making us buy a new game every year but this seems unlikely. Also, shout out to FIFA Manager RIP

    Its EA. As soon as they got exclusive deals, they just didn't try. I'm a fan of the Madden games as well an the same thing happened there. Madden 05 was great, you could create teams, you could create fans. There were radio shows and decent 'media' coverage in game. But once EA signed an exclusive deal with the NFL, they just stripped it all in favour of bleeding players dry with the FIFA born UT. Hopefully, now FIFA and EA have partied ways, ot encourages them to give us a decent game.

    I'm 46 and played them all - you nailed it with the peak being 2006 - 2012. PES 2004-6 (really ISS from '98 to '06) was the best football on console, but Konami couldn't seem to cope with the transition to the PS3 era and shift to online gameplay. FIFA and FUT took over, and probably peaked around FIFA 12/13/14. FUT was still quite innocent then, but the focus shifted to the esport competitive scene around 2016, and the focus now is on "Weekend League" and players having to essentially put in full-time job hours in order to keep up with the market and play matches in a fixed timeframe. Lazyness, a lack of focus on gameplay, awful servers, and greed, caused the decline in FIFA. We are in an interesting time though - there are at least 2 new potential franchises in the works, and the reboot of FIFA next year via EAFC. The gaming industry overall is in a very stale state, however EA's ugly vision of the sport potentially no longer being this football monolith in the industry gives some hope that competition will lead to innovation (as it did back in the mid-to-late 2000s - when EA stole most of what Konami did well and improved on it).

    I have been playing football games since early 90's (I'm 36). I fell in love with ISS Pro in 1997 and have been a HUGE fan of the Franchise until PES 2021. Didn't like the 2008 till 2012 period. Loved PES 2013 as a game, because it was complete. Started to love it less after PES 2014 (they were deleting more and more mods). I hate this game since E-Fornite-Football 2022. The problem today: more focus on the money than the quality. And this won't change anymore, because they are making a lot of money while bringing out a shitty game...and people pay. The football game era is done, less effort, more money.

I get that the heyday was that sort of 2005-2010 era so it's easy to dismiss all later titles but there was a ton to like in the most recent editions.

    It's also worth noting that your earliest football game simulation experiences are most likely your most memorable. For me, it was championship manager, ea's world cup 98 and PES6. Also, football in those years was much more enjoyable to watch; more technical, more balanced etc, thus creating a greater drive to video game in the same genre.

    One of the biggest things that killed PES was when they stopped you saving your developed Master League team's stats to a memory card so you could play your mates. Instead it would save the original stats so all that hard work on the pitch was for nothing. PES 21 did bring this back (without the memory cards) and it is a decent game, sadly for Konami I think they sorted this too late

    The reason Fifa sucks, is because it's become too skill based with randomness taken out. In pes 6, you can cross the ball into the area and pray for a goal, and you might score. In fifa, you can only score that way if you use that exact technique and sweet spot that some fifa-youtuber taught you, which means all the goals you score look the same (trivela shots, german (early) cross, sprint down sideline and score by tap-in etc). Pes 4-6 is still lightyears ahead in gameplay because of the extreme amount of nuances the newer football games dont come close to.

    I'd say FIFA is somewhat better (as an e-sport) than PES because of the extreme precision involved, while still allowing for some randomness. There's too many variables in PES that players can't control, especially defending, so pro PES players tend to run ridiculous scorelines and unrealistic formations like 2-3-5 at the end of games

    It's true football games hit a zenith in the early 2000s pre-online gaming. From that point onwards the on field gaming has remained relatively unchanged apart from very gradual graphical improvements. It's absolutely unacceptable that certain things STILL remain absent from football games. Why can I still not decide where my players stand at corner kicks, free kicks etc. Why can I not change my throw in taker, I don't want my centre forward taking the throw just because he was nearest to the ball. Why is there a countdown on dead balls so if I haven't kicked it in that time the AI just kicks it for me? Why, after I've changed my corner kick or free kick taker does it STILL not remember my selection and every time I get a corner I have to manually change it! Why can't I edit real players, some are the wrong skin colour, or the wrong height, or just look like shrek, why can't I edit that when there's a full fat edit mode in the game with pretty decent player creation tools. Why is the control scheme still the same? There should be an option to have defensive and attacking controls, I'm sick to shit of clicking X to tackle but the game bizarrely registers the X input as a pass and boots it out of play even though I didnt have the ball when I clicked X! Absolute piss take lazy programming and this upcoming EAFC24 will be exactly as shite. Online gaming really has killed off innovation in pretty much every genre of game, including football games. People playing each other online gave the developers a lightbulb moment that rather than spend millions developing the offline simulation of football, it was far more profitable to sell ultimate team nonsense to people who really should know better. The feedback loop of earning coins and buying "packs" hit that pleasure centre of the game that is also tickled by people addicted to gambling. I never understood it, I tried it and found it incredibly counter-productive. From 1996 to the early 2000s we all bought football games for a simulation, i.e realism. We played with real squads and got enjoyment from this. So I have no idea why everybody migrated to some daft online mode where you invent a team name in a league of infinite teams with unrealistic lineups. I don't know why EA didn't just go full steam ahead and set the games on the moon and throw in mario kart style power ups into the matches, it was already a deeply unrealistic mode so why not just keep going and give us unlockable 'DKmode' big heads like in Goldeneye. I could rant for hours. But in a nutshell, any easily pleased gibbon that bought into ultimate team has contributed to the death of football games. If online matches hadn't taken off, right now we'd have had 15 years of progress. We'd have a career mode where Bellingham moves to a European heavyweight, rather than moving to West Ham or Villa.

Most of those years u hated the game and the stress but u play it because u are addicted. Now at FIFA 23 in middle of TOTS decided to block it for at least a year, to improve my life and lower the stress. For past few years didn't open any other mode besides ultimate-team.

    Whilst I agree with most of what you’ve said here, I’m actually think the gameplay in the latest PES is actually pretty good and allows for so much flexibility and creativity in terms of tactics and the way you play. I do totally agree that it is completely lacking a soul or any kind of real identity. It all feels so forced and like it’s trying too hard to be cool. Just give me master league with that engine, some bug fixes here and there, and I’ll play that all year.

    I've played bunch of them.. starting from FIFA98, PES2, PES5, FIFA09, FIFA13, and then PES from 2013 to 2021, I've also tried new eFootball, and FIFA from 21 to 23... Regarding the FM, I played FM 2005 and FM 2015.. I tried FM23 but it's too complicated nowadays... I would just like to be a manager.. not a coach.. I hate the 3d match in FM.. I miss those dots from way back...

    Fifa 09 was my all time fave fifa but 23 is better in everywat other than the missing features so nostalgia is deffo a part of it. Fifa needs an online career mode big time. Making a private career with up to lets say 6 friends woth all of em being any team in the game not already chosen by another player would be amazing, pretty much career like it is now but online, could make it interesting with online player career too. Problem is they wont do that cause people wont be playing FuT as much so less money

    Great video. I cannot agree more. The last FIFA game that I had fun with was FIFA 2001. The last football game that was really fun for me was PES 6. Another think is - I was always keybord player and later football games was so console centric, that you couldn't play with keybord on equal footing against people using gamepads. In case of FM I sunk most hours in 2005, 2007 and 2010. Nowadays I don't even buy new FMs I play some when epic or amazon give them for free. And PES6 had pinguins! Pinguins ware the best thing for a party or even evening with a friend for beer & PES.

    ​@@symptomofsoulsFM problem (my main issue) is the match engine just follow the mainstream tactics. Back in FM04-08 their meta tactic is just wing play 442 or 433 09-14 tiki taka and now is gegenpress 4231/433DM wide. We can't play tiki taka, cattenacio, or direct ball unless you manage Man City Madrid or Barcelona nowadays which is suck.

    For football manager I can't agree, I mean they made the game available for the largest number of fans. If they improved the graphics the game wouldn't be playable for those who don't have a great computer to run it. To be honest I don't care about the graphics, I prefer managing, finding great players and winning trophies. The only change that I want is the press conference and its impact on the players, the other coaches and the club. Football manager is the only game that you mentioned that hasn't got worse over the years.

    I know this is kind of late but I feel like on field quality should have a setting where the graphics can fluctuate between what we currently have and a more advanced and realistic quality (not sure if possible but sounds reasonable). If an Xbox360 can run fifa 12 then I thnk even the worst laptops today can run similar graphics. I also like where the additional comments in press conferences can go with AI integration. I feel like in 2 years the whole cookie cutter answers will only be there to speed run through conferences lol

    The problem is the consumer. Sports gamers are different to mainstream gamers. A lot of fifa players, play fifa exclusively and are not into others. This creates a market condition where regardless of output, they will repeat purchase every year. The game publishers realised this and this is why all sports games are copy and paste fests with fancy buzz words sprinkled in every year. They quality won’t change until the consumer does.

    I think for me it comes completely down to competition. In the early naughties there was this is football, pes, FIFA, club football (insert relevant club here) etc. Similar on manager side there was FM/cm, premier manager, fa manager, lma manager, (insert club) manager, director of football. I haven't even touched on classics like sensible soccer. Nowadays FM has a 100% market share. While FIFA and PES don't really seem to compete with eachother on the other side. If we look at other genres this trend kind of matches with reduction of competition but there's still a healthy level in most cases. Competition enforces higher levels of quality in each game.
