Where’s the ‘It’s a steaming pile of same old same old designed to please the blind fanboys, thus avoiding any chance of giving Konami a kick up the aris in order to release a GOOD current-gen game…’? :D

Same here and even the the nets are spot on! Squared mesh, green net supports and generally that whole intro is clearly based on exactly how a real game is played out. Granted it only lasts a short time so is easier to compile but still, that was several years ago AND last-gen so why don't we...

So eloquently put and perfectly highlights what I was getting at!! :agree:

This xx% build nonsense is a real cop-out and goes no way to explain why the final product falls so short of the hype each year. There is no way on this earth the game will be so fundamentally different upon release that it harks back to the old days of PES that gave such true simulated...

Fully agree and it's the fundamental problem that dictates why the rest of us level-headed souls have to suffer a 'polished update' every year. If the fanboys could make noises about what a poor offering they are having to endure each year instead of gushing about how great the game is (and...

It seems that the 'blind faith brigade', Konami's target audience they rely on to sell their below par product each year, is as prevalent as ever on here :rolleyes::erm:

I must say I fully endorse what ads as said above. What a complete let down PES has truly become each year! I wouldn’t even touch FIFA a few years ago due to the ridiculous, one dimensional way it played out – now however it really is becoming the simulator and PES the arcade bash about. I...

i think it's bloody marvellous and PES has some serious catching up to do in order to be even considered a serious competitor never mind 'win', in my eyes! The 360 movement is great and with practice could be a key element to playing this game as well as the more fluid animations etc. Oh...

I don't think it's a case of slating a game not yet played but rather it's a case of the initial impressions haven't quite met expectations. For instance I cannot see from any of the gameplay videos too much in the way of revolution over past incarnations of the series. As it stands there...

Aha! I've just posted something to this effect on the Do they listen to us ? thread. For instance the nets at the Bernabeu go back some way and are hexagonal mesh whereas the nets at Estádio do Dragão go back further but have a square mesh (or at least they did last time I checked!). then...

I'm really dismayed by ALL the next-gen versions of PES to be honest - it feels like Konami haven't caught up with the rest of the world yet. I truly believe that they need a massive overhaul in the whole approach to the gameplay as it really does not feel like a simulation, apart from the...

There are several different 'incarnations' on most P2P netwoks. This is always the damn case several weeks, sometimes months before release of a game with PES4's popularity. Man who ARE these people?? Also I've noticed GTA San Andreas has been 'available' for ages now. How short sighted...

Hmmm where do I start? Well.... - I'm on my THIRD PS2, I swear they're made of paper - I've had THREE copies of PES2. The defending AI coupled with the shitty refereeing decisions on that godforsaken bitch of a game made my blood boil - I've had TWO disks for PES3, the latest one just...

If you've played the demo in GAME of Fifa, it looks great and for the first 30 seconds feels 'wow'. But believe me its still Fifa and its still awfully boring and naff to play once you get used to it. And scoring is about as exhilarating as watching paint dry..... Bring on PES!! (with...

Scored a flukey one from halfway with Totti. But the dozy goalkeepers are always a mile of their line so its easy if you get the shot just right. Also scored a cracking FK with Roberto Carlos just past halfway again this time off the crossbar. I jizzed all over my control pad with that one.
