>players who were extremely OP in video games but weren’t that good irl

Adriano was amazing during his peak but he is ridiculously op in PES

Tonton Zola whateverhisname was in the old Championship Manger games, desu you could do an entire thread of CM "legends" who were shit IRL, Cherno Samba, Carlos Fierro and Eder Alvarez Balanta come to mind

>>149273059 (OP)
>I support liverpool: the thread

pato

Kyle Korver

>>149273059 (OP)
the GOAT

>>149273218
He was an amazing player. But like adriano was way too OP in video games.

>>149273059 (OP)
david luiz was broken in literally every fifa good stats and his model was massive

Gullit and Batistuta are way too good in efootball

Obafemi Martins at Inter

>>149273473
fair enough. Funnily enough I remember an old clip of rio saying that he doesnt think fifa give him enough skill stats etc in the game lel

>>149273059 (OP)
Renato Sanches was a great box to box midfielder.
Leão made the game boring because I could always count on him to score when I needed him to

>>149273892
In pés

Olisadebe
Mexes
Mpenza
Babangida
Chivu
Heitinga

>>149274241
also

If you have played FIFA in the last 10 years you realize that EA is one of the wokest companies out there, every brownie is overrated and overpowered

>>149273123
Which pes is this
Please respond

Yakubu was unstoppable for a few versions of FIFA. So was agbonlahor. There's also guys who were good but always injured IRL like Rosicky, Wilshire, Ledley King, Reus.

>>149274411
its PES 6

>>149273123
he misses a lot. post recoba or martins

>>149273059 (OP)
he was unmatched in NSS4

>>149273059 (OP)
Edgar Davis
In FIFA 2003 was like the best player in the game.

>>149273059 (OP)
remember fm legend Ganso

>>149273059 (OP)
Unai Vencedor - been one of the best youngsters you could get in FIFA career mode for years but is languishing now in real life

>>149274915
He was higher rated than neymar irl for a while

>>149274484
I remember Tim Cahill, Alan Smith, and Sigurðsson being outright broken in some of the older FMs. The first two would win every header from corners and crosses. The pedo Icelander would score from FKs anywhere on the pitch.

Jovetic in FIFA 14. Navas was also ridiculously good.

Damien duff was broken in pes5

>>149275194
Joe Cole and Joaquin were unstoppable

>>149273059 (OP)
in football manager games around the 20-23ish years, marcus rashford is basically godmode.

Basically all the "pacy black winger guy" type players are OP in videogames because pace is the only attribute that matters, for example Adama Traore was a god on Fifa a few years back

>>149275194
Fifa 2005 too

>>149273059 (OP)
While I wouldn't say he is bad irl, it's insane what a wall Ter Stegen is in Fifa

>>149273413

It's not, it's PES5.
t. PES5 expert

Steven Gerrard

Never turned up when his club or country needed him most.

>>149277427
knockoff pes players had so much sovl

>>149273059 (OP)
Ibrahimovic in PES 2010

>>149273123
whoever decided to give Adriano such gorilla-mode shooting skills in that game managed to fool so many people into supporting Inter kek

Marco Borriello in the PS2-era Pro Evo games was good but for some reason in Master League he had a crazy development ceiling and would become absolutely top-tier, which is funny since he was pretty mediocre IRL

>>149277427
Legend

Matteo Brighi with 97 overall in FIFA 2003, a literally from Parma.

>literally the best player in the game
>was amazing irl but nowhere near his video game character

>>149277545
i think you meant to type ryan giggs or wayne rooney instead

I miss my Russian league niggas so bad

>>149275057
So would Abelardo. Then you also had the insane late 90's Betis team with Oli and Alfonso up front on CM. Even Barcelona and Real Madrid would tremble in their presence

>>149273059 (OP)
theo walcott

>>149279956
add etoo and hulk and that team is unbeatable

Not video games. But when I collected cards for the 2010 World Cup and had the entire deck (I don’t wanna know how much money I must have spent on this), I was hyped to learn about additional cards and even stronger: limited editions
There were like 20 of them, and England had more than twice as many as any other nation (individually). And they had an additional „England Superstar“ writing on them
I don’t want to start a flag shitflinging contest, but this confused me, for despite being in elementary school, I knew England had „only“ one World Cup that was already 44 years old back then, and no Euro, and they hadn’t been a particular highlight at the 2006 WC or the 2008 Euros either
Guess the cards just came from England. But it was a bit too blatant. The England players with limited editions (that I know) were Rooney, Ferdinand, Terry, Gerrard, and Beckham. Beckham in particular bugged me

Steve Kerr was a 3 point machine in video games. It was absurd.

>>149280911
I was gonna say something Like this
Basically any scrub with a high 3 rating is op in basketball video games I was putting up 30 point games with Brad lohaus

>>149280911
Dana barros nba live 96
Jim Jackson nba action 95
Two that come to mind for op niggas
Bro u know what's really cool, when you stay in an Airbnb with a shared kitchen and people leave food for you for free In the fridge
I wanted to get that quip in to let you know I stole food from you filthy jews and I will steal more before I check out
And eventually when I'm jacked I'm gonna steal wives

>>149279764
*slips*

>>149277427
Minanda and Ivarov were the only og ML players that were actually good.

Forlàn in FIFA 11 was unstoppable. He couldn't stop fucking scoring, my brother would pick inter and my whole defense would just be intercepting passes aimed at Forlàn. If he ever got one, it'd be a goal.

Also Benzema in FIFA 12. Benzema was always a great player, but in that game you could score anything with him

>>149281180
*crashes*

>>149275057
Gylfi Sigurdson (whatever the fuck it is) won the balloon door playing wide midfielder for me in fm15 one time. He was so fucking OP.
>>149274915
Didn’t have a shitty injury rating? Other than that he was a god.

>>149279313
Lad that did the ratings was an Inter fan apparently which is why all their players were OP that year

>>149279764
Giggs scored a last minute goal in a CL semi, Rooney scored in a CL final

Abdul Razzaq in Brian Lara Cricket 2005 had this random 95mph faster ball which would come without warning and was utterly unplayable.

>>149273059 (OP)
Vagner Love in some PES, I don't remember which

Jr Smith in NBA2k14

>>149273059 (OP)
as others have mentioned, basically every non-white player in fifa

>>149279764
Giggs never turn up for his country because he didn't even show up for his country.

Adryan became the best player in FM12 and he's now 30 and playing in the Brazilian fourth tier.

Éder Álvarez Balanta and Carlos Fierro

>>149273123
that Inter team was ridiculously OP in that PES.
>Martins
>Recoba
>Adriano
>Veron who could score blooters with ease
If you couldn't win with Inter then you had to hand in your PES licence.
To be fair, Yanited were ridiculously OP over the years as well. >Von Nistelroom (Nistelrooy) in the older ones was ludicrous.
>Saha was massively OP for how good he was irl - had incredible finishing especially with R2 placed shots.
>Rooney could score from anywhere
>Scholes scored 8/10 times if you shot from 25-30 yards.
>hold down R1 + X and Ferdinand or Brown would tackle anyone

Sad to see how far we've fallen when you see the lineups of top teams next to each other like pic related. Truly a golden age of football and football games.

>>149279764
Giggs scored a wonder goal against ARS in the FA Cup semi-final in '99.

>PES tournament round friend's with the big house
>quick to anger mate goes for a piss before match starts
>go back a few screens and put all his players on down blue arrow and all other friend's players on up red arrow
>he slowly gets more and more frustrated and pissed that his players are complete shit and nothing is working
>goes to make substitutions and sees what's happened
>throws controller at other friend and chases him into the garden
Classic times.

Maxim Tsigalko

>>149285039
arsenal had a better lineup than that with hleb, pires and bergkamp

Always signed this nigga until I found out he was black irl

Literall cheat code

>>149277545
Liverpool would have gone trophyless up until the Klopp era if not for Gerrard and his clutch performances/goals.

>>149285039
I remember scoring so many freekicks with pirlo in this pes. instantly became my favourite player up until just about the point he became everyones favourite player with that panenka.
kaka was also ridiculous in pes6 though. hard to choose between inter, Milan and united for who had the most ridiculous squad. in 2008/2009 ronaldo could basically win games by himself though.

wdym. just get a ps2 emulator and get the roms from vimms lair.

>>149273413
For me was Leandro Roncatto, Aaron Lenon and some other nigga I can't remember.
I always bought them cheap in my playtroughs, and they always turned out great.

this handsome mofo ran faster than anyone in pes 6 i believe

>>149285039
Chelsea also had an op squad
I remember John Terry being the cover for pes5

>>149285893
>Chelsea also had an op squad
>I remember John Terry being the cover for pes5
Yeah, they won the EPLel conceding only 15 goals, no wonder they had an OP squad.

>>149285039
Inter was insane
could just shoot from anywhere

>>149285889
actually not

Dembele in fifa 18 (last football game I played) was a cheat code and obviously real world trash
He could run past everyone with the ball glued to his feet

This nigga

>>149273413
For me it was Mikka Aaritallo

>>149285678
Milan had the better squad.

>>149279956
better of had the aussie sliver rb and there was a sliver cb that was op too

>>149285039
