PES6 for the 360 (The rumors are true : ( )

[Dan]

Sorry if this has been posted before, but somebody over on the evo-web forums has the 360 version and this is what he has to say.

"I've been lucky enough to get hold of a retail copy of the game for the weekend and have been playing it a bit so here are some random impressions.

Overall I do like the game, some of my comments may give you the impression I don't...

I only have WE10 to compare against as I've yet to play the PS2 version of PES 6.

The gameplay overall I'd have to describe as heavy. By that I mean the ball seems to be a bit too slow, the players have clunky first touches most of the time. There seems to be a delay between the player receiving the ball and them doing what you want. This was occasionally a problem in WE10 but maybe it's exacerbated in this game by the overall speed of play.

Other musings:

GOOD
Widescreen - Wide camera, widescreen, loveliness.

Graphics - While not what you might call "true" nextgen there is a nice sharpness to the graphics - especially in HD - without HD you do notice the improvement in pitch textures and the crowd is better than PS2 but still a bit rubbish.

Transfers seem pretty up to date - Ashley Cole is at Chelsea or London FC for example.


BAD
Slowdown - I play with the wide camera and there is some very occasional slowdown with loads of players on the pitch and at freekicks/corners. It doesn't bother me much except for the fact that this is meant to be nextgen and doesn't really look it.

Stuff cut out of the 360 version:

8 stadiums - not a biggie for me as it's the pitch I'm looking at.

Edit mode - Only edit player is left, there are no transfers and you can't even change the player's shirt name - it is not the same as the name seen in the rest of the game. Club names etc. can not be edited.

No international challenge mode - not sure if this is in the PS2 version or not but WE10 has it.


Feel free to ask questions though bear in mind I'm not going to be trawling player stats. I haven't yet played on Live, going to see if I can shortly."

Sucks to be you 360'ers

I was not arsed untill I read You can't edit teams or register players! :shocking: so come January, this game will be out of date. If Konami don't release a January patch on the marketplace, they are grade A cunts.

You cant even do transfers wtf is that about...

Reminds me if Fifa 03 or 04, where you could only trade players and not do transfers.

I hope theres a reason for that like, free updates online(live).

We will be charged for these updates. I guarantee it.

It doesn't say anything about that on the back of the box, or so the guy says, if we complain enough maybe Konami will pull the finger out.

A Dark Day For Pes Fans And Konami

Well thats it then, konami have finally lost their crown, or should i say they've bloody give it away.
with fifa07 demo on the 360 showing so much promise and moving forward constantly reaching for a better footballing experience, while pes seem to be going backwards fast,
I would say the football crown finally belongs to EA and konami have let down all there loyal and trusted fans all over the world but they have also let themselves down
i have been there for konami ever since there very first title on the super nintendo,
The only consolation in this sad story is that, thank god fifa seems to have come up with the goods otherwise football would of been finished for the true footy gamer.
now whats that famous saying ?

THEY THINK ITS ALL OVER, ITS IS NOW
konami have one chance to put it right for next year, if they dont reclam there title next year, konami will be saying GAME OVER for there famous footy series

 

[wallpaper_01]

Calm down... Who gives a shit, its gameplay all the way for me, its lucking gud i think!

 

[joshkinny]

everybody cheer up, until you play the game ateleast, pes6 players on the ps2 will soon be gagging for it (the pes6 on the 360 i mean lol) pro evo on xbox live is enough for me though i will soooooo fookin miss editing kits, nothin like making a kit, making the badge, and realising its all wrong, god how ill miss those moments


Does anyone know if theres an edit mode in fifa 2007 on the 360

 

[pes guy]

it's just the master league konami need to improve on if otherwise
it's fifa's year

 

[PES ADDICT 117]

well well, i never EVER thought Konami would stoop this low. Now edit mode, i mean come on, after all the flack we've taken from FIFA fan boys, this is how they repay us... fucking disgrace. They should be ashamed of themselves. I want a fucking good explanation and a FREE full update in February after the January trnsfer window. Bad move Konami :no:

I pre-ordered PES6 months ago cos I was dying for it to come out on my 360. I'm already fed up of it without even playing it, I only tend to play the premiership and they'll all be called stupid names with crap plain strips. Boring. I've played the Fifa demo and it was rubbish too so I can see me sticking to playing my PES5 for the old xbox on my new machine. Sooo glad I forked out the £300, it may not be a lot to that Seabass bloke but it is to many people. It's a half arsed attempt from Konami and they should be ashamed that they're living on past glories. I hate Fifa games but they will eventually get it right and they hold all the licensing cards. I'm honestly considering buying a ps2 now and selling the 360, its not what i had hoped it to be. It would appear PS3 will be the way ahead so I better get saving

I should also have brought up a thought i had ....

PS2 players do their option files etc of the new game. It gets converted to a 360 option file (technical stuff for someone to look into). The fully edited PS2 option file is playable on the 360 despite there being no edit mode on the 360. Had this idea because I managed to get a fully edited version of the option file on the psp last year despite its lack of edit mode (I know there's the whole link between PSP and PS2). Its just a thought but maybe its just me clutching at straws!!!!

Doubtful mate, the only thing that may come of this is being able to change the team names from Merseyside Blue to Everton etc.

You wait a year for something then its half arsed. If i went to work for a year and did as little as Konami have done this year i'd be sacked!!!

Indeed i see where you are coming from. This is bloody typical though. You wait ages for something, it all gets over hyped and then it arrives as a dissappointment. Hoepfully they will sort this out next year.

 

[Ziss]

Sort it out next year? How many fans do you think they would have lost by then?

So I have to pay £300 for a 360 and a shit version of PES6 or spend £130 on a PS2 and PES6? Almost a no brainer.
