yup mate. i must say that PES2008 is far from i expected.
the graphic quality is awesome, but there are a lot of drawbacks.
I can't sense the feel of 'PES soul' in PES2008.
Replays are sucks.
Gameplay is sucks. too easy to score, even in top player mode with me using low level team vs AI using top level team.
I think KONAMI tried to imitate FIFA gameplay, whereas in fact they did't realize that PES series is sooo far better than FIFA.
"So KONAMI, why you should bother imitating FIFA?"
but I will NOT turn to FIFA, I will play my PES6 and waiting for the better (I hope..) PES2009.
