I think I have finally come to the end of the road with PES. I have bought the game religously since the days of ISS. Ill get straight to the point. The last few offerings by Konami have been below par, I think most would agree, but after playing 2010 since release I have come to the conclusion that it is shite, plain and simple. I have no time for little idiots who will reply with the pathetic "go and play FIFA" whinings. For the record, I also think FIFA sucks. My reasons for this....hell, how long you got?.
1: Still too easy. I have not lost a Master League (On Top Player) game in two seasons now (first season I lost 6)...I heard about unlocking another difficulty level but in my experience, when you do this, it seems to make it easier, you just pass around the crazy pressing players.
2: Some annoying things--when the ball is in front of you and you are running on to it, you press the shoot button and hope to connect with a rocket shot and your player does that stupid slide on the floor thing and the ball bounces harmlessy into the keepers hands.
3: While Im on keepers....absolutely abysmal would be my assessment of keepers on this game. How many times do they spill the ball into the path of an opposing player?...even when the opposition hoof it up field and it is bouncing harmlessly towards the goalis hands he does some aerial jump and catches the ball!...there are too many faults with the keeper.
4: Long shots!...how many top corner rockets am I gonna score?..the defenders back off you until the last second possible, when you get used of this you can pretty much time it right to smash a long ranger that is accurate as hell 90% of the time.
5: I am playing as Spurs in my Master League, I have bought some great players to go along with the ones already at Spurs (Lennon, Modric etc) but even when I am playing Hull City they seem like Brazil in disguise!...they one touch pass around there defence (even in their own penalty area)...sometimes you dont touch the ball for a couple of minutes or so...this, even when they are 2-0 down FFS!....Its pathetic. It makes the game frustrating to play. Its not because theykeep the ball the reason Im unhappy, because like I said, Im winning these games easily, its just that it is too dumb to describe, that Hull (or any other sub par team for that matter) can play free-flowing football where they dont lose the ball, its real silly.
6: Animations for headers still suck (small gripe but what the hell)
7: Fouls...now this is the most frustrating of the lot!...I have not had ONE penalty in 3 seasons of Master League...I can get hacked down from behind and they dont even touch the ball and I get no penalty...not just penaltys though, free kicks in general...Im sure most people have noticed this...its so frustrating.
8: Penaltys!...If you are struck by luck and actually get a pen you have to put up with the abomination that is the new penalty taking system on the game...YES, i know how to do them but the point is, they suck, plain and simple. The view is terrible also. Why not just have it like the old pro, or better still, like FIFA's pen system, thats at least one good thing on that game, along with the commentary.
9: Commentary...so embarressing that I now put it on mute...seriously, its becoming a joke.
10: I am running down the wing with Lennon...he has 91-94 for top speed and acceleration respectively...he is being chased by a Portsmouth player called Griffin, who has 70-70 as his attributes...he is at least 5 yards behind Lennon but catches up!..GTFOH
11: There is no diversity in the goals no more...the majority of goals are either long shots or from crosses into the box from the wing...gone are the days of slick passing movements, finished off with a killer through ball to a striker who rolls it calmly past the keeper.
12: Through Balls...they suck to high heaven on this game, that goes for floating ones too.
There are also so many little faults with this game that I couldnt fit it into this post...I am a football fanatic so I need my footy game fix but it is really starting to p*** me off.
