Hi,

Last season I bought some new bladed boots from adidas and within 3 or 4 games was out for the season with damage to my left anterior cruciate, nice. I firmly believe this was due to the blades as it was the first time I had ever worn them in many many years of playing footy...

so, now I am all recovered can anyone recommend to me some kick ass studded boots? i'm not even sure what the most advanced boots are currently.. and the majority i seem to look at all have the bloody blades! :(

atm, my eye is on these http://shop.adidas.co.uk/product/Q7184/G01...UNIT/detail.jsf

but they are madly expense, and seem to be the only ones from adidas that have studs this year!

any other suggestions?

You can get previous models of the F50 boots, for example these: http://www.prodirectsoccer.com/prodinfo.as...p;PROFILE=Speed for a fair bit cheaper, you can also get models previous to that for ?30's in certain stores. Personally I use AdiPure boots, however they come in blades, which I have never had a problem with and own a pair of AdiPures in both plastic and metal blades, mainly because the metal blades appear to wear away when the ground is hard as they are designed for soft ground. Thats the only complaint I have about blades.

EDIT: In answer to the Nike question, these boots: http://www.prodirectsoccer.com/prodinfo.as...ROFILE=Heritage I think come in different variations of stood (plastic, metal etc) and Im persuming are good boots.

Studs are definitely better than blades, it is just a shame that there is a much larger selection of blades available these days.

The World Cup's are apparently pretty good...

they are a tad expensive but are prob the best boots around....

More or less every decent pair of boots will be available in both blades and studs if you look hard enough. I have two pairs of Nike Legends, one studded and one blades. Aswell as bladed preds. All fine boots, all come in handy too depending on where Im playing.

I am looking at the new F50is though!

Got a couple of pairs, both Puma.

My current blades are the best pair of boot's I've ever worn: V1.08i. Very light, very comfortable and a good surface area for striking the ball.

Def reccomend.

My other pair are boots are studs; Puma v-Konstrukt II SG; and are a bit heavier, very comfortable and perfect for wet ground.

For me, Puma boots are better than the others - very good quality, very comfortable and over all excellent boots.

so, to follow up follow up on this thread, i got some black F50i TUNiT boots yesterday, and went down the park this afternoon to test them out/wear them in a bit

OH MY GOD, they are amazing! :D

I don't know what they are coated in, but it's slightly tacky (sticky) and the control you get is mad. Also, they are so light and thin, it pretty much feels like there isn't anything there..

I am very impressed, and even though i vowed never to spend this much on a pair of boots... my god, I definitely think they are worth it!

      It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.

    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.

      How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.
