Wow, the Xbox 360 version of PES actually sold more than the PS3 version? I thought that the football lovers were mostly staying with the Playstation brand, but it seems that many of them migrated to the 360 from the PS2.

And regarding PC sales, it's not going to be like that in many European countries... PES sells quite well on PC in Portugal and in Germany for example.

 

Well, some places have reported the PS3 version has some pretty crappy slowdowns... and by some places, I think the desginer himself said so. That and the UK seems to be a Hybrid American/Europe market.

They hold more Europeon prefrences, yet console buying wise they seem to lean more towards the American market. I'd assume this is because they got a lot more earlier videogames from Nintendo and the like as opposed to other parts of europe that didn't get to many serious offerings until the Playstation era.

 


You're right, I've heard about those issues. Online mode is practically unplayable and even offline play has slowdowns and bugs on the PS3. In the Portuguese forums I frequent I saw people who are pretty pissed off and some who even return their game (and rightly so, I don't even know how Konami would release a game with such bad problems). But even knowing that, it's still a bit surprising to see the 360 version actually outselling the PS3 version for this particular game.

 


Actually the game has some problems in both plattforms .For what I have seen the slowdowns on the PS3 version are mostly in cutscenes and cinematics when there is a foul etc .It doesnt harm the gameplay but it is noticeable .There are also a lot of reports of problemas with the online gaming ,and this in both consoles the 360 and the PS3 .Konami has already announced it would fix both the graphical glitches and online problems with a donwloadable patch in the next days .Funny thing is that this already happened with the 360 version last year .IT seems as if Konami has rushed the release of the game .
