Its such a shame we lost this match, truthfully i saw flashes of brilliance in the midfield and the movements of the flying eagles. Their sublime touches and runs was delightful to watch. They just seem to lack the discipline and composure needed to complete the match. More importantly, we needed a good finisher.

Some you guys need to chillax, we will get a goal.

rabiu is in!!

These guys started to lose concentration 10mins ago,

We need a good finisher, we  had plenty of chances to convert.

The situation is surreal. I am still waiting for Ashton Kutcher to jumpout and yell PUNKED!

citizenY:
AS long as "honey dey flow" PDP no go break. Atiku, Tinubu and Kalu are not long distance runners.

I have written these guys off. Too many contradictions, skeletons and plenty Shit 4 Nyash, Open their book Page one Ok , Page 2 to 5, palava, corruption
etc page 6 we wan reconcile, page 7 i wan go PDP, YAradua na my brother , These people should take a back seat, jo!!!!

I am looking foward to the era of the Utomi and Fashola"s of this world, Please God, Answer my prayers

Real talk!

I am just curios, perhaps someone can enlighten me on when Enough becomes enough. I don't need to remind anyone on the current state of affairs in Nigeria. At what point do oppressed Nigerians consolidate and wage a vicious war against the tyrannical elite. What exactly are we waiting for? Are we waiting for them to consume whats left until we perish. Are we not angered enough? How can we organize our selves and fight? Is a revolution necessary? or do we wait till credible leaders spring up , Does anyone have any unique ideas?

Bravo!!!

We need some Arshavin magic right about now.

Feel like I'm watching a horror movie.

The kid better see how he can leave naija to a place where his talent or skill will be more appreciated.

I remember this kid that built a battery operated toy car when we were young in this small town in Osun state. He used the oscillator from a fan to flip the wheels. He didn't even have a formal education and i doubt he even physically saw a toy car before. I cant even imagine the number of wasted talents in Nigeria

kuramo:
Turai is probably using the Vienna visit as a cover for a rendezvous with her boyfriend, she has allegedly been known to play away in the past, please don't ask me with whom.

Whoa! Does she pay for play?

I am arsenal fan and I commend Ade on his great performance today. He has the right to celebrate any way he deems fit but the guy is unprofessional and lacks class.

I swear some Arsenals fans can be week hearted.  We dropped 3 points against man city,whoopty-doo!!
I have been a NY Knicks fan since the Patrick Ewing days, thats more than a decade of dedication to a team who as not produced a single trophy.
Grow a set of balls and stand up against criticism from viscous haters who switch teams faster than Nigerian politicians defecting to PDP.

9ijaprince:
Its all over. Like super eagles like arsenal.

You have gone too far.

Man city fans can celebrate till dawn but we are still going to finish on top of them, mark my words.

Ah! This is not a good-look.  

paks:
I cant really say which is better because i have not been able to crack my pro evolution 09.i need tips on how to crack my pes09.but fifa is cool.i use vista.pls help me.

hmmm! You want someone to aid you in a public forum on how to pirate a software?

DIFFERENT STROKES FOR DIFFERENT FOLKS . As long as there is a footy C.D on my ps3,I[b] couldn't care less what brand of game it was to be honest with y'all.[/b]

Guess that means you don't have any valuable input to this debate.

kaydee:
All y'all claiming you played Fifa 98,I got a "Quiz",Please what comes up at half time and at the end of a match?

Anyone who's kicked the round leather before will tell you PES is more like it. FIFA was it till PES

I've been trying to explain that to these guys but they prefer to kick around plastic balloon balls instead of leather. 

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=62969.msg4519405#msg4519405 date=1252601740]That is so 2005-ish.
FIFA have improved all those since 2008. . . . . . .
There's no game out there as close as REALISM as FIFA 09.
Why not swallow a bit of pride and try playing it for 1 week. . . . .I have noticed fans of PES quickly dismiss FIFA as they lose the first few games they play on it. Face the challenge instead of backing off.[/quote]Here some news for you, I actually started playing Fifa from 98-2009. I played PES 09 for the first time on PS3 and I haven't turned my back since. I rather wait for PES 2010 than play FIFA. Enjoy though!

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=62969.msg4519264#msg4519264 date=1252600399]Everything about FIFA is tight on PS3.
It seems there's no difference on PS2 between FIFA and PES so i won't argue. . . .but on PS3, there's a universe of difference.

There's no marketing hype here. . . . .What you pay is what you get.
Fast connection to anyone anywhere in the world and there's little or no lagging.[/quote]I agreed with you already that FIFA online play is better, however online play is not the end all or be all of playing video games.  Remember, there are other modes of play.
I get bored playing FIFA, players run at the same speed, defenders doing dribbles they cant dream of, lack of control, its a joke.  Gameplay on PES is about as close to real soccer as you can get, nice touches, great finishes, tons of sublime moves and tricks, strategy use. Simply put PES is much more intelligent

BlueDiva:
Who plays PES?
Fifa rocks all the way.

you guys are victims of marketing hype, you are attracted to the flashy looks of fifa

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=62969.msg4519135#msg4519135 date=1252599445]Keep your FIFA09. . . . . .I have ma own copy. . . .
PES on PS3 sucks. . . . . .A friend of mine still cannot connect his cousin in Canada for almost 2 years now.
The online gaming is a disgrace and they have not changed the crowd animation in 10 years. [/quote]I agree with you online gaming does suck on PES. I dont get my kicks off of playing online though. Perhaps you will come back home on NOV 3,

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=62969.msg4519039#msg4519039 date=1252598786]This comment is so 2004-ish.
Have u actually played FIFA on PS3? Don't say what you dunno, mannnnnn!!!

I will be here in October to make fun of y'all again.[/quote]Whats a 2004-ish comment? :-

I have both games for PS3 and I haven't played FIFA 09 since the 1st day I purchased it, actually if you need an extra copy i will be happy to sell it to you otherwise its going into the trash where it belongs. 

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=62969.msg4518773#msg4518773 date=1252596917]FIFA kicks PES off the road with their brilliant game-play and other online features.
I have been a PES fan until October 2006 when they made PES 6. . . . .That has to be the biggest scam in the gaming world

U are fixing the wrong game.[/quote]FIFA has a lot of advantages over PES, like silky presentation, robust roster, and graphics  but what matters the most is gameplay and if we were to compare Fifa 09 vs PES 09 in this aspect, PES wins hands down.  Fifa is dumbed down for non-soccer fans in a arcade-like manner.

Whoa! the sting from a peppered koboko doesnt even compare to this tongue lashing.  

fredosmith:
I think fifa is the best franchise in the gaming world.

Have you played PES?

PES is for real soccer enthusiasts, the game play is ridiculously good and that is what counts the most.  FIFA has a much more updated roster of teams/players and the animations are pretty cool, but it feels like an arcade, the game play is unrealistic.

Dr Kitaun:
yes sir !

na here we go dey when e go happen . . .

Osaze go play rubbish and y'all will yap him and I will accordingly bring up this thread . . .

The main reason I started this thread was because I was highly impressed by his attitude on the pitch. To me, the result we received on Sunday summarizes the state of affairs in Nigeria. Sometimes its not how good you are, its how good you want to be. He may not have the been the most skillful player on the pitch but in my eyes he played with the most determination and if the other players adopted the same attitude we would have easily claimed victory.

Dr Kitaun:
well . . .am not even trying to convince u cos for one am not one of the Nigerians that are suffering from COLLECTIVE AMNESIA . . .didnt this same Osaze play at the last Olympics where he couldnt justify his having been included in the squad as an overaged player ? abeg make we hear word jare . . .one good performance now and we all have forgotten how wonderful IK UCHE had been prior to the last 2 matches ?  

u are not funny ! but really do u know who Michael Jackson was ?

I bet he is your favorite sportsman  . . .DUMBO !  

Yes Sir! I know who  Michael Jackson was, you murdered him. And he is my fav sportsman, he probably would have moonwalked 3 goals against tunisia yesterday.
