At the moment, going off those E3 build videos, the only noticeable differences between 2011 and 2012 are in the gameplay itself. The presentation, menu flow, intro-sequences, graphics etc. seem to be almost identical to PES2011. I'm hoping that some of this stuff is placeholder, and that some...

What the hell is going on with the "unassisted" cursor setting? The CPU decides to take over from me at random points in the game. Usually when I'm about to take a shot at goal!

OP: was this an idea for pes2012? Or something you found that actually works in pes2011? I can't get it to work on 360.

I don't think it is too easy. Exhibition mode games can be slightly on the easy side at times (depending on the team you play as/against), but the difficulty gets ramped up a lot further in tournaments. My Ajax team got destroyed 5 - 0 by Man U in the Champions League quarter finals. Hardly...

Best on PS1 = International Superstar Soccer Pro Evolution 2 Best on PS2 = PES5 Best on PS3??? I don't think that we're quite there yet with PES2011, but not far off. It's certainly the best pro evo for a good number of years. The games on PS1, from ISS Pro 98 through to ISSPE2, were simply...

They're only playable in the Copa Libertadores mode - they can't be used in exhibition mode.

I think this is the first time for ages (possibly ever) where there are two genuinely good football games coming onto market. But two very different games, that have strengths in different areas. I'd like to read more reviews that recognise this fact, rather than simply dismissing one or the...

The thing that gets me is that most reviewers can't seem to like both Fifa AND PES. CVG have given Fifa 97%, which i'm sure will then mean they'll rate PES as a 65%-70% game (like last year). Fifa 11 is not a 97% game, and PES2011 is not a 65% game. The same goes for the 6/10 awarded by...

GamesTM have given PES2011 6/10. There's no online source for this, and I can't post any scans. I saw it by looking over someone's shoulder at work! Fifa wasn't reviewed in the same issue.

Not bad. I like Fever Ray and the Rory Phillips remix of The XX.

Everything about PES2008 was bad. That was the first game I got when I bought my 360. Such a let down. I had a quick game on PES2010 half an hour ago. 2011 really is a big step up.

Jon Murphy has said via Twitter that this bug cannot be reproduced in the release code. Seems to be fixed. http://twitter.com/JonMurphy_PES Although is says version 1.00 on the press start screen of the demo, this obviously isn't version 1.00 as it's not the full game. A bit misleading that.

I'm enjoying the demo so far. It's taking me a while to get to grips with it, but i'm starting to get good results now. The passing feels really nice and you have to work hard to create scoring opportunities. The new animations look good, as do the replays. Overall, it's a big improvement...

That doesn't look good. However, this is what beta testing is all about. Finding stuff like this and making Konami aware that it needs looking at. There's a lot of mixed feelings from some people about the MLO beta. I can't say i'm surprised by that. Online multiplayer has never been a...

I'm not sure what to make of the video to be honest. Some aspects of it were good (i.e. the jostling animations), but other aspects were bad. The running animations shown at around 1:07 look very odd indeed and the brief clip of gameplay footage from the dev kit at 1:16 looks strangely like...
