All their sports games are ps2 ports. All those core duo and geforce 8800 wasted because of some lazy developers.

Well that what I thought, but a console fanboy have the true answer. Read it, it's worth it.

GOD DAMMIT !!! I'm tiered of hearing people talk about NEXT GEN ON PC !!!! GET THIS TRUE YOUR HEADS: PC'S WON'T BE ABLE TO SUPPORT NEXT GEN GRAPHICS UNTIL 360Mhz OR ABOVE DUAL OR TRIPLE CORE (PROCESSORS) WILL EXIST. 4 EXAMPLE A AMD Athlon 64 HAS 64Mhz...ABOVE THAT THE "IDEAL" PC THAT CAN SUPPORT NEXT GEN GRAPHICS HAS TO HAVE SOME KIND OF SUPER-MEMORY TO SUPPORT MULTI-TASKING AND THE NEXT GEN GRAPHICS. CONSOLES ARE DESIGNED TO UTILIZE THEIR POWER ONLY FOR GAMING !!. PC'S HAVE TO SUPPORT WINDOWS AND ALL THE OTHER PROGRAMS. SO THE POINT IS: NO PERSONAL COMPUTER OUT THERE CAN SUPPORT NEXT GEN AND IT'S PROBABLY GONNA BE A LONG TIME TILL THEY WILL ! ! P.S. Nba Live 08 for PC is gonna be a "bug free", new splash screen, roster updated version of 07. SO BUY CONSOLES AND NBA 2K8 Razz

Lol "pc don't have 360 power". What a joke. Nobody buys sports games on PC of course they're gonna make then low requirements. A mid range PC built today is far more powerful than the consoles. That is a pure fact and has nothing to do with the quality of generic multiplat games made for it.

maybe a store bought pc cant handle the graphics and such of a next gen game but you can build a high end pc that would blow any of the consoles to dust

Most people with high end cards don't play sports on computers so they keep the specs low so the casual market can buy the games. A console is so much better for sports games. You should be happy that they still make them because many developers stopped.

AMD 64 runs ar 64 MHZ, lol.

With that logic the Xbox 360 must run at 360 Mhz? I mean there's a number in the name, it must be for the amount of Mhz right?

You know what scared me? When I read that Gears of War looks better running on a high end computer then on the 360. I mean I never underestimated the PC's power but damn I for some reason didn't think Epic would optimize the game so well. Then again... its Epic, they belong on the PC.

Thats just stupid. PC will always have top end performance. X360 and PC only use in order execution on there CPUS, even windows XP will not run at thouse. As for GPU, GF8800 >>> Both.

So dont be silly, the ports r just crappy, there is nothing to do with pc's here.

Racing sims are great on PC, that is something that the PC does better than console. IMO, there is nothing on console better than GTR2 or Race07. I love playing titles like NHL and Tiger on my laptop, especially when I'm on the road for work. It beats draggin around a clunky PS3/360, especially when it's so simple to hook up a controller. All in all I generally enjoy sports titles better on console as most other genres like shooters, rpg's and rts's simply stink on them.

its more that you don't really need amazing graphics in sport games, for the people who buy those games. most pc gamers don't care about sport games but the causals do so they make them run on your intergrated in gma950 to get sales. If they really didn't care about next gen on pc then whats with medal of honer airborne?

The person who wrote that is very ignorant. Ever heard of Unreal Tournament 3, Gears of War PC, and Crysis? Those are all next gen games that can run fine on a Next gen PC. Like mine.

So, like it or not, the PC doesn't always get the superior version.

FIFA 08 just isn't the same as the 360/PS3 version.

Nah, seriously, it's not just a graphics requirement.

The PS2 version is inferior to the next gen versions.

It's just EA being lazy.

Nevertheless, it's inferior to the current gen consoles.

I'm sure EA treats the PC better than the Wii. At least, they put out original games on the PC. http://www.gamespot.com/wii/sports/nbalive08/review.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=gssummary&tag=summary;review

Play a non-PC/PS2 version of FIFA 08.

It's PES EX Plus 2.

Seriously, if FIFA continues to go in this direction, I'm fully converted.

It makes PES feel last gen, and FIFA 07 last last gen :lol:

If you got a PS3 or 360, go try out the FIFA 08 demo. This ain't the FIFA of old.

This is the closest we've got to realistic football simulation yet.

I'm excited for it. It means Konami will pick up their act and start improving the PES formula.

Btw, PES (well, former) player here :).

I have to admit the 360 version of fifa 2008 is really a good soccer game, I didn't beleive at first after years of crap, but the demo got me convinced, I'm going to pass on pes this year, the graphics are next gen but the pace of the game is too fast and the weird character animations put me off. I would rather play pes 6 with an updated roster. By the way almost every other multiplatform sports game not made by EA is next gen, EA is just lazy, i don't buy the low requirements crap, that is why you have graphic options on the game. I have an xbox 360 for the exclusives and for sports games, if it wasn't for that I would just go with the pc.
