First of all, I'm upset it has come to this but the truth of the matter IMO the king has gone backwards. Excuse me if you love the latest installment, this topic is not for you but I wont fight to protect this games honor anymore. Or blind myself with lies to keep this game alive throughout the years.
Im a big football fan and a massive PES fan my whole life. I've been around since the earliest of days. Still remember the fun we used to have as kids with PES 1, PES 2, ISS 98 Deluxe. The glory days when Fifa were left in the dirt and embarrassed themselves yearly. They couldnt match the fun and quirky simulation that was pro evolution soccer.
Ever since PES6, the perfect football game, the series has struggled alot. Yes I had fun with PES 07, 08, 09, 10 but they kept breaking the basic principle of the game. The latest game was the last straw for me and it amazes me after all the money we give Konami, they keep releasing a game with a few alterations and some for the worst. Notice they changed the menu from green to blue this year.... wow. Who cares about that, why arent they fixing Online? why is it the same sluggish crap every fricken year. This is the winning formula, so what if the game is simple. A football game with no lag just like the way COD runs = perfect.
Well you see my brother is a fifa fan, still appreciates pro for the little it offers. After purchasing both games for the first time in 5 yrs. I sat down and gave fifa 12 an unbiased run in, previously very biased towards pro, even blinded. What do you know? its an awesome game. Im writing this from work and Im itching to go home and play so badly. I havent felt like this about a football game for years?
Konami/PES have lost there edge and are relying on this niche market to support this mess. Well I play football games in a group of 7 close mates, we all felt the same and would protect it. Well guess what, we all feel the same and were kicking it. We all returned our copies, and I think Konami should learn there lesson, PES fans are a dying breed. I used to argue but you cant help the inevitable. Im sick of the next year, 13,14,15.... yeah yeah you'll fix online one day. Why can my brother play flawlessly online for the last 4 yrs and I'm to scared to even attempt online in pro on a daily basis, its shocking man.
Signing out, this is my opinion and others from my circle of friends. Its personal and I respect you for sticking to Konami. Its been too long for me.
