PC vs PS4

[tinpanalley]

I'm reading varied opinions on this and I've asked on other forums...

Ignoring graphics and online play (so just focusing on the single player modes) how different are the PC and PS4 versions really? Are they fundamentally different, like they're basically two different games? Or are they only different graphically and in frame rate?

I've found people saying that the gameplay uses the exact same engine across PC, PS4, XBOX1, 360 and PS3 and others arguing that because animations are different, that would have required gameplay and physics improvements. Not sure about that.

Anyway, just got an opportunity to pick up the PS4 version for very cheap (20€) and thought it might be nice despite not relishing the idea of having to import all my own uniforms and logos. Plus, it's hard to compete with the level of detail in the PTE Patch and others. I don't play ALL the leagues, only Ligue1 and Premier League, but it's nice having real uniforms and logos for all the Champions League teams at least.

So, if they're the same game under the wrapper, I'm not gonna bother getting the PS4 version. Any thoughts?

I would go with PC if you have a PC that can run it. Last PES game I enjoyed was 2013 on the PC, mainly because I could mod the crap out of it. I downloaded a bunch of faces, pitch textures, adboards, etc.. and put them in my game. Moreover, I was able to edit the gameplay with an editor-Everything from GK ability to referee strictness.

Yeah, that's exactly why I've chosen to not get the PS4 version. I can play the freemium MyClub on the PS4 whenever I want. Yeah, the graphics are a bit better but honestly my rule has always been the following for sports games: If you have to go into instant replay and zoom to REALLY see the graphics differences, then they don't matter. And also, if you care more that a player looks like himself than that the game plays faithfully, you're doing something wrong.
