Sometimes I just don't get certain reveiwers/fans comments? What actually is it that they want Konami / Seabass to change about this game?
Ever since I started playing the Pro Evo series, ISS 64 to be exact, I fell in love with the whole feel, look and immersive gameplay that this game bought to the genre. Up until this, FIFA was the best footie game on the market since its debut on the Megadrive, following on to the PS1. For the first time, Konami made you feel totally in control of nearly everything you did on the pitch, from the control of the ball to the little flicks or tricks you could pull off to get that much needed goal. Ever since this game they have made little tweaks such as animations, cut scenes, different game modes etc, but have always stayed true to the overall feel to the game that made it so good in the first place. As the same with everything else in life, there are only a certain amount of modifications you can make to something without giving it a complete overhaul, or starting again from fresh, which in essence would lose what made it so great in the first place. FIFA for example is now a totally different game from 5 years ago after undergoing a complete graphical and gameplay overhaul, and it still cannot encapsulate what makes Pro Evo all that it is to us lovers of the game.
So the point I am trying to get across is this, lets all be happy with the little improvements that we get out of the game this year, of which i'm sure there will be many, enjoy playing with the new players bought in to our favourite teams, enjoy the moments when you pull of a new little trick or a slick move with animation that looks better than the previous game, but most of all appreciate how lucky we are to be playing such an excellent game and faithful rendition of the game we all love. Football.
It could be so much worse, imagine if Konami went back to the drawing board and lost some of the magic that has been Pro Evo for years and bought out a totally new game which just wasn't as good as the last 8 or so games in the series, you might end up turning to Fifa as it might slightly remind you of what Pro Evo used to be............. See U online on 2009! (fingers crossed they've sorted out the lag)
Enjoy!!!!
