PESGaming
So I booted up the PES demo (with the time extender), and my goodness - I played the most enjoyable game of virtual football ever (and I'll even include the first time I played FIFA International Soccer & ISS in there too!)
Something I hadn't really noticed before in the demo (due to the rarity of it happening), but the very physical nature of the ball, I know in previous PES games we've had balls bouncing off people's heads, but I scored a goal that otherwise would have gone wide courteousy of a defender's head being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
I've yet to score the same goal twice (I'm playing on Regular - I'm still getting used to the 360 controller on the PC!), and I've just had great football all around - definitely my best PES experience yet.
I love that the referee isn't anal about the slightest tug of a shirt anymore - that really became a gripe of mine in PES 5. I also love that the referee nor his linesmen are not all-knowing. If they aren't in the right place to see something, it heavily increases the chances of it going unpunished!
The improved menus are a very welcome revision as the old menus are borderline torture.
All in all, I'm thoroughly stoked about the game, and I can't wait to play the real thing so I can check out the master league (and what I hope some really exciting and engaging management play)
