if someone approached me and said "fancy a quick game of PEE EEE ESS mate?" i don't think i'd stop laughing for a week. nothing wrong with 'pez' at all.
| when somebody mentions PEZ to me i think of them candy sweets i used to get as a kid in the different little character dispensers </BLOCKQUOTE>
Some Spanish police type guy grabbed hold of me and took those PEZ things off me in the airport because he thought they were drugs or something, true story that.
And it's 'Pro Evo' btw, i don't know anyone who calls it anything else.

It really is. People would ask for ISS, for me to casually mention it hasn't been called that for years and then followed by "Oh well I know it as ISS" and then launch into a history of which ISS games they had on which system for oh-so-many years. Every single year that would happen, about 6 or 7 times.

No, the rest is irrelevant to them calling it ISS out of habit so I ignored it.

its Pro Evo or pes (though everyone else spelling it pez?)
Why on earth would you call it PEEE EEEEE ESSS? It was called ISS because it said that in the intro iirc, "I.S.S. Pro Evolution". It doesn't say P.E.S.

"Pro Evo" is used among my group of friends, along with the increasing popular "Pro Ev".
An offer to play can also be made by raising a pad and singing, in opera style, "SHEV-CHENK-OOOOOOOOO" with the 3rd syllable in a slightly higher pitch.
On special occassions, and if the defending champion is present, a staging of the Dog Cup may be suggested.
