finally set up a wi-fi at home, and hence can connect to xbox live...

which I did yesterday briefly... a recap of my adventures

1/ just upon connecting, I see they've redone a sensible soccer port! used to love this game, I was playing it all the time on my amiga! great, let's download it. Started playing the demo. God this is shite. Only one button, and littles sprites on steroid. Did I really play that crap?


2/ let's move to the real thing, and boot PES6. Get there, find a quick match. Ok. The guy takes Ascoli !? all right, why not, I wanted to take Manchester, but will take Arsenal instead, there're a pretty average team in PES6 I find... but wait, just before hitting the "done" button, the guy changes at the last minute to take Inter! Ah. I see your type. He selects a team formation with everybody in the back, and Adriano alone up front. Ah. 30 mn into the game, I'm down 0-3. Ah. I get the feeling I'm being noobed here. I disconect. Fuck your statistics, wanker.


So, all in all, a wonderful experience.

Have you got PES2008 yet. My Gamertag is Zeroualis if you want to hook up for a romantic fiddle on the field.

[maroule]

is pes08 worth it? I heard it was very similar to 06, only quicker (which doesn't appeal to me, I want the more realistic, slower tempo)

BTW, my gamertag is "Saul71"

I've not played PES6 to be honest so I couldn't compare. Knowing Konami it's probably exactly the same.

Snooch06, but don't add me because you're all assholes.

[King_Ghidra]

So there are at least 5 other Snooches. Terrifying.

Well there was a snooch, I went right for 06 because well, because 6 is my number.
