Konami has spent recent years sitting on a bench in the FIFA seemed to improve every game on the ground. With the turn of the generation of the PSE failed to make the leap to next-gen FIFA, has once again demonstrated its willingness to even the game.
That is until last year when overtaking Konami almost all elements in the PES engine to give his football to a totally different feeling. He stepped to the SIM card, but it’s not going all the way to the head of FIFA difficult.

But in the end, the general consensus was that FIFA still had the edge, with PES not quite winning over enough of the simulation population and some long-time PES fans still pining for the classic magic of PES 4 and 5.
The point, though, is that Konami came closer to regaining its crown than it has done for years. It gained real ground on FIFA by creating a football experience with more weight and authenticity while still maintaining some of that PES frenzy.

FIFA 12 vs PES2012 comparation

If the Japanese developer can build on last year’s foundations this could be the year when the old champ regains the top spot. If EA manages to add to last year’s stunning effort, this season’s winner could be decided on goal difference.

Thing is, we can answer some of the questions already. Everyone (PS3, PC and 360 players alike) now has both a PES 2012 demo and a FIFA 12 demo in front of them, hopefully played to death.

They may not be the final product but they should be pretty good representations. So, which one do you find yourself drawn to most? Is FIFA still on top or could PES finally clinch it once again.
