PS3 Version of PES 2008 has Framerate Issues
Posted on October 22, 2007 by Victor Dangelo
 

According to reports the PS3 version of Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 or PES 2008, is absolutely terrible as it has very bad frame rate problems, leaving many reviewers to state that PS3 owners should avoid the game and pick up FIFA 2008 if they want a quality soccer experience.

Many PS3 users were a bit nervous when there was no PS3 demo of PES 2008 released prior to the game shipping to retail stores, and for good reaon.

A Winning Eleven fan site has come out and put up their review stating that the PS3 has some terrible slowdown issues which basically destroy the game.

Pro Evolution Soccer has always been known for its incredibly smooth game play and also has been known in the past to not be as detailed as the EA Sports’ FIFA franchise. They made up for it though with a solid frame rate and some amazing animations.

Unfortunately the PS3 version though falters big time as that smooth game play is gone as it is destroyed by the frame rate issues. If you want a soccer experience, it appears that PES 2008 fans on the PS3 will be very disappointed.

Nothing but problems and delays - If it was not for the fact that the XBox is (1) Unreliable (2) Has no inbuilt Wifi and (3) No In built HD Drive. I would tell Sony to jump!

It’s only excuses and fanboys dreams keeping the PS3 alive.  Sony - stop whatever it is you are smoking and sort it out!

The article does not state that the game is absolutely terrible.  It does state and I agree with completely that these framerate issues should not be tolerated on a nextgen console.  Once the got over the framerate issues, he stated the game was okay.  I don’t care about there "Only" being 15 stadiums available... you don’t think that is plenty???  But, all things aside, the framerate issue absolutely sucks.  I expected better from Konami.  I was highly anticipating this title since all of EA’s sports title ports suck with framerate and freezing issues.  Sony does need to start screening these games better though.  I was under the impression that all developers/programmers had to send the completed game in to Sony for the final "go" with a game before publishing.  I will probably buy the game anyway; however, you can’t install every game you have onto the HDD to make it run better.  They only make HDD so big presently.
