I wouldnt mind the demos they don't always be the same as the full version

Going by this review I will definitely  buy it

Defiantly - I like that.

it's not as sluggish as fifa world cup
players respond a lot quicker and make runs more, opposition players react a lot quicker too and don't stand like mellons.

In saying that the gameplay is never going to be majorly different, what do you boys expect?

You don't pay any attention to the demos but would buy the game on the basis of one review?

Edge reviewed it, gave it 6 and was very critical of it. only review I would trust

Played the PES 11 demo today,thought it was excellent much better than previous versions, and between that and all the good reviews I will be buying it without a doubt, might trade in Fifa 11 for it as my Fifa 10 is almost the same as it,bit of a waste of money tbh.

When I went to play my xbox this morning it said no profile was detected. When I tried to create a new profile it says that no storage device was detected. It was working fine last night. There should be a load of space left on the hard drive.
Anyone ever experience this before? How could I fix it?

Pretty much agree with everything they say, especially the the bit on the 360 movement FIFA has and PES outdated animations. Each to their own but FIFA is the better game in every department. FIFA 10 was probably one of the best sports simulations ever created, it was going to be hard to improve on that this year and while the changes are not as noticeable, EA have kept it simple and refined a game which is probably still miles ahead of this years PES.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion on which one they like or to blindly stick to a series because of some misguided brand loyalty; but when you put the 2 side by side and look at them both objectively, there is only one winner. I for one don't see how the PES series can survive now, it's another dog of a game which will only force more people to try FIFA. PES 08 was the worst in the series and that coupled with the fact FIFA 09 was superb convinced me to switch. I know I've seen nothing to convince me of wasting 40 odd euros to switch back.

gentlemen, thinking about getting a Xbox 360 sometime in the near future - quick question, is it good to go to connect to the internet by wireless straight away or how does it connect for online play?

I was a big gamer in school and college but I have not played as much in recent years.

Im getting an XBox 360 soon and its my first console since the PS2 which I stopped playing about 3-4 years ago.

Is there a list of Must Play games for the 360 in the last few years I could look out for and get second hand?
Anyone want to give me their top 5?

Some must haves but there is so much I could never pick my top 5

Modern Warfare 2
FIFA 11
Halo Reach
Rock Band 3
GTA4 (Just cause I think it's probably the first game that can be classed as a work of art)
