WENB Exclusive : First PES 2010 Screen Released!

[Lami]

And who else to star in the pic than the main man himself, Lionel Messi. The words PICTURE PERFECT come to mind!

The incredibly detailed pic is an actual in-game image, and shows graphical detail beyond anything Konami has reached in the past. It also comes with an accompanying press release:

Messi brought to vivid life in PES 2010

Konami showcases massively enhanced graphics engine as

PES revamp continues apace

Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH has released the first in-game image of its forthcoming PES 2010 title, demonstrating the stunning new level of detail and graphical refinement the new game enjoys.

The work in progress image shows cover star Lionel Messi in action in the new game, and showcase a massive advance in aesthetic detail. Crucial to the new game’s look are all-new dynamic lighting effects, where the position of the sun or the illumination from the floodlights is reflected in real time within the shadows cast both on the pitch, stadium, the ball and players.

The newly-expanded Tokyo-based PES Productions team has also worked hard to create the most vivid player recreations to date. Player expressions are now fully implemented, while the level of detail has been extended to individual skin textures and different weaves for the various kits to mimic the breathable material so many manufacturers now use.

Further details will be released in the coming weeks.

We’ll have further insight throughout the day. For now just sit back and admire the view

We here at WENB also want to say thank you to Konami UK for giving the site the opportunity to be the first to launch the news. Their commitment to the community is paramount, and choosing us to launch the news is clear indication of that. With that, we want to thanks to all the fans for their continued support. Long may the exclusives continue!

Holy mother of moses! They might not be bullshittin this year after all...

That said, it's not that different from the previous image we saw, it's just now been said that it's an actual "in game" shot...

 

[Lami]

Here's a better image too.

 

[fick]

Here's hoping they don't go for the "all show no go" angle.

I'd gladly play a scrappy looking version if they nail the gameplay & expand the ML & online...

Same here. Obviously wouldn't mind the massive graphical update though

Yeah, Ive been playing PES 6, and that proves your point.

Must say I still own PES 6 as well, athough on a HD tv through the PS3 it looks shockingly blocky... still plays a damn good game though.

way better than 09. I only play 6 now. 2010 better be good. Not sure if a 4th year of PES 6 will work

 

[HH]

Looks promising. Here's to a new game...

 

[Keane'o]

If it is in game the fans look good too....more colour

 

[zanteive]

hope all player faces to be like this1....

Haven't you tried going back to PES5??

I got bored of PES6 and then tried PES5... I'm still playing PES5 every now and then. Just shows that Konami has really gone downhill since PES6.

Hopefully Pro Evo 2010 will be The 1st proper Next Gen PES. A 4th year of PES6/PES5 is a bit too much.

This truly is awesome. I have never expected this much of graphic detail. It looks one of the best games in terms of graphics. Finally, it's on par with the best games in graphics. I hope the gameplay is solid.

I wanted to go back to 5, but I gave my copy away to a friend.

Might buy it again though yet, maybe if 2010 isn't any good.

 

[Foxhound]

I'm impressed with the screenshot. Hopefully the gameplay will be a massive improvement.

 

[RAMAXWY]

yeah it would be amazing if all the faces looked like this and if they gave us the abilities to edit non licensed especially classic faces in the same way.

 

[Very Toxic]

I hope its better than pes 09

Thanks Lami

 

[Krishna]

Pro 5 is the one guys. Let's hope PES 2010 is good otherwise I might have to cross over to the dark side:ninja:

 

[proevofan88]

for u guys that play pes 6 on ur ps3....is it widescreen or?

To be perfectly honest, I think PES08 and PES09 are utter rubbish... and so I really did not expect ANY Graphical improvements. I only expected a few new animations and a playable Online.

But yeah, the Graphics (judging by the only in-game pic we've seen) are fucking awesome, it looks just as good as the NBA 2K9 Graphics.

Now the thing that intrigues me is that, the Graphical improvements is like PS2 to PS3 graphics... it's a massive improvement.

But Konami knows that The Top Priority is How the Game Plays and Moves. Can we expect the same massive improvements in terms of animations and movements??

If so, Pro Evo 2010 is a whole new game... hopefully it plays more like an improved PES5.

Bottom Line is that the Messi Pic is impressive, I think it's actually better than the 1st one in the press release. But the thing that will make or break it before it happens is the Video.
