Rating: - It'll do
The price pretty much sums it up. This is a fairly solid incarnation of the series bearing in mind most of Konami's efforts are going into the Next-Gen versions.

The 'Become a Legend' mode is a nice idea but (as anyone who's played as 'fixed' on the old PESs while the comp controls the rest of the team)has very slow gameplay and frustrating as the AI doesn't learn how you like to play and often does irritating things like giving the ball away cheaply from a pass and wandering into opposition ...

Konami have now been using the same game engine for 7 years and given that 1 year is a long time in the world of hi-tech you probably have some idea of how outdated this game now is.Konami have tried everything over the years to avoid actually spending out on a total revamp:marking so tight your players couldn't turn, levelling out of players abilities so that every cpu player's as talented as the world's best players etec,etc,etc. I'm still playing 6 occasionally in which the cpu players execute more sliding ...

Major Flaws...
**You tab the shoot button and the ball just flys over the bar, there is no way of controlling where the ball is going.. you tap it very quickly and it just goes straigh into the keepers arms.. they have no ability to keep the ball on the floor..

**The master leauge is good, you get to buy players and make the team better. But after the season after letting me buy a load of players and making my ... Read More

Rating: - WASTE OF MONEY!!!!
It was bad enough that Amazon took over a week to deliver the game after its release date - and then when it finally arrived, and I put it in the PS2 expecting the usual half-dozen 0-0's before getting to grips with the new controls and features, I was immediately disappointed.

Bar a couple of minor changes to menus and naming of features, this is basically identical to the last game, but with updated squad lists - and of course, having updated all the team's and player's names in the last version and ... Read More

Rating: - All Great Things come to an end!!

WHen i saw that The Champions League was included in Pro 09 i was like YES!! But alas imagine my Dissapointment and Anger when i saw that it was not included in the PS2 version. I think Konami was being Lazy as PS2 is almost at the end of its lifespan! It plays almost identical to Pro 08 and the gameplaty is only slightly Tweaked!! The Become a legend mode is nowhere near as good as the Xbox and PS3 Versions. It still is a decent game to have though for Pure Football and dedicated Konami Fans but the lack of ... Read More
