    Default PES 2010 is top seller in UK, Forza and FIFA close behind

    Man, when is Europe going to get over this whole soccer thing? Not only do they love the real-life sport to an unhealthy degree, often leading to gang formation and general acts of hooliganism, but they also possess a collective, soul-crushing addiction for the game's many virtual representations. For instance, Konami's Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 debuted in the top sales spot for UK last week, bumping former first-place finisher FIFA 10 down to third place.

    Nestled betwixt these two was Forza Motorsports 3, which admittedly has little to do with soccer. Fourth and fifth place went to Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games and WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 respectively, which have even less to do with soccer -- though the appearance of a wrestling game in the top five gives us hope for the nation. Now there's a sport.

    Wrestling is not a sport lol.

    Yip, they love their soccer erm.. football a lot. It translates well into a game and its fun even for someone like me who doesnt watch football games on the tele, but would much rather play the virtual counterpart.

    I love the English Premier League but playing Fifa is even more fun. I have PES but I think Fifa is a lot better especially since all teams are the real ones.

    Still waiting for my copy of pes 2010. Getting the pc version. No issues with names for me, a quick download and patch corrects it. But I can understand why it would irritate you if you can't fix it.

    Not sure which one to get... Gamespot gave PES a terrible review score... Is it really that bad? I've always enjoyed PES over FIFA.
