Editorial Review:

Product Description:
With the Pro Evolution Soccer series renowned for its fluid, realistic gameplay, the new game builds on the implementation of Teamvision with additional key advances. As with previous releases since its inception in 1996, the ball is again treated as a separate entity, with the timing of shots entirely down to the player, while the new AI ensures that defenders work to close down space and block efforts on goal. Similarly, distribution of passes works along the same lines, with players using the space available to them to switch the ball. Close control has also been enhanced with more control when dribbling the ball, and a number of subtle moves added to bypass defenders and move the ball into space.




Rating: - Should be better!!!!
I have been playing Pro Evolution Soccer games since the first one came out for Playstation 2 some years ago and have been buying the updated games yearly up until Pro Evo 5. So when the new edition for the PS3 was released I couldn't wait as finally I was looking forward to playing it online most of all and was my main reason for buying it.

Firstly though to the single player game: My initial reaction is somewhat disappointed as I feel that the gameplay feels slowly and not as crisp ... Read More

Rating: - Pretty disappointing
The only thing to have improved since the last game is the graphics. The gameplay is worse than ever and the master league is worse than on the last game.

Even the graphics aren't that improved, the crowd looks awfull and they all move together, so when you score every single person in the crowd stands up at exactly the same time and they all lift up one arm (the same arm) at the same time. The gameplay is awfull, there's still the problem that you can run into the box and take it round ... Read More

Rating: - Anything less than 4 stars is just churlish
OK - so PES sets a high bar. Yes more could have been made on the PS3 or 360. But fundamentally this is still an awesome game. It remains the best for multi player (in one room) bar none. Loses one star as I agree with others who claim the lag destroys the online experience. But hey, just get some mates round - it's more fun when you can actually throw toffees at people for missing and to see your victory lap around the room!

Rating: - Takes the fun out of the game
Pro Evo has always been the superior game to Fifa. Gamers have always said 'people who know anything about football buy Pro Evo'. Which has been true.

However this version has taken the step towards realism one notch too far. I find this game far more frustrating than fun. By putting emphasis too firmly on players that are on or off form, it means your men inevitably end up making mistakes, even if you didn't.

I have found my players to pass to the wrong people, shoot wherever ... Read More

Rating: - Pro Evo is not fun anymore
The great thing about Pro Evolution has been its incredible addictive qualities, the realism and online-play.

This game is by far the shabbiest of releases I have witnessed a developer release on retail. I have given it so many chances because I felt I may end up liking it, but I have bought this game and sold it twice and I think it is pretty much settled that I don't like the game.

The frame rate is absolutely awful (most notable on replays), the graphics are just ridiculous ... Read More
