[Cross Platform] Pro Evo 2011 Chat

THE latest edition of a top football computer game has sparked a furious row - as it features virtual Rangers fans singing the controversial FAMINE SONG.

The offensive chant is used as crowd noise on the soundtrack to Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 when gamers play Rangers at Ibrox.
Outraged players have flooded internet forums complaining about the lyrics, which urge people of Irish descent to "go home" as the famine "is now over". Japanese firm Konami has now been forced to replace the soundbite on the game, which was released on October 8.
Last night one player, who forked out £39.99 on a copy, said: "These lyrics don't belong on a video game which can be played by children.
"The issue is already controversial for very obvious reasons. Gamers across Scotland, Ireland and the rest of the UK are furious these lyrics have been added to the game.
"Decent Rangers fans who would never sing such offensive songs are angry that their club has been associated with these views." The song is so controversial it led to complaints to the Scottish Government from Irish authorities. PES 2011 is available on all major games consoles, including Xbox360, PS3, and Nintendo Wii.
Last night Konami said it "will be correcting the issue" but refused to explain how the chants made it on to the game. But Rangers insisted the soundtrack was recorded in a studio and NOT on the terraces of a live match.
It's thought an update, featuring other Rangers songs will be added to users' games when they go online.
A spokesman for anti-sectarian charity Nil By Mouth said: "We're pleased the firm acted to make the changes."

only kiddin mate! i dont like fifa much myself tbh either mate.i just think the gameplay is crap.

 

fifa i ind is too predictable, i can always tell within the first few passes if im going to win or lose, its a huge buzzkill the scripting

pes 2011 is very much guilty of that, but even if its an illusion, i still feel much more in control than fifa

ive been playing a lot of pes 6 lately... 2011 comes nowhere hear that, but is still a good game

 

have they taken that disgusting song out yet?

 

what one?

 

it says sheepshagging * instead on the famine is over. It goes why dont you go hommmeeee sheepshaggin * why dont you go home.

 

the famine song is pes 2011

 

huh? never heard or seen it

 

they took out "the famine is over, why dont you go home" and changed it to "sheep * *, why dont you go home"

i think they shouldve taken it out the game, seeing as ABERDEEN ISNT * IT IT

1.how to get the celtic squad updates?

I've NEVER noticed the famine song because i've never been Rangers.
