Latest WE8 Screens and Info + Box Cover!

And especially, there is the impression that it is a game quite different from the other episodes (basically other games in the series). ethics forbid me to speak more before the date of official release, but i would like to retranscribe a great moment of loneliness. during the Argentinna - France game, I find myself with Aimar alone at the penalty spot, I believe its off-side. However, I shoot and I score! Large zoom on Aimar who expresses his joy... and who suddenly looks towards the touchline while celerating. i see the linesman which has his flag raised. it was all there to make me believe it was a golad but then i get angry.

I can say to you that it is the most realistic game that i have known. I can also insist on the fact that the vidéos are misleading: it is incredibly different from all the other episodes in terms of gameplay.


translated a bit more clearly thanks to me spending 5 years learning french. and all those years i thought it would be useless.

just saw the new vid. its ok but where is the new tricks and stuff? and in the vid, the ball seems to have a curl when it is kicked. its seems very odd.

 

[Harry-Kewell]

The transfer deadline for Europe’s leading football leagues closes at the end of August, and the PES4 game is released 2 months later. So I was just wondering, is there any chance, for those countries anyway, that all the transfers will be intact? I’d love that to be the case, but I can’t see it happening to be honest.

 

[AfroJoe]

Didn't happen with PES3, don't see why it will now. Sadly.

 

[razor]

is it just me or has anyone else realised that at the end of the promo video when all the legal crap comes up there is no inforrmation about copyrights of ADIDAS. so will this game be sponsored by adidas or not? another thing in the promo video is the training part when it shows the different crosses. if anyone could get a screenshot of it and try and get someone to translate it we couldhave some new info.

 

[lukinhazzz]

when we8 will be released you are goin to post the team`s squads???

 

[larsson]

Well, I´ll post some for sure, not all though, as I can´t read the Japanese signs so I have to find the edit mode first and check the names on the back of the shirt

It looks exactly like WE7 like most of the vids... I don't see anything I didn't see in WE7 actually. But I know the vids don't show WE8 at its full power.

 

[t1000v2.0]

Nah definately smoother, more animation and dont forget the new features, cut scenes teams and stadia etc, all that alone will make it feel nothin like WE7.

edit: gotta love the way he goes in for the header, very aggressive, nice.

So on we8 will they use our alphabet for the shirts rather than japanese symbols?

Well,

I know it will defenately feel very different from WE7 as always. I saw some vids where you can already see the big difference with WE7. I just think that the vids don't really show the real strenght of the game. I think I can only judge the game by playing it, and I feel like it won't let me down.....

 

[rkinder]

When you getr this game - is someone going to put up a list of how the Premiership teams compare to each other in terms of the ability Konami has deemed them worthy? I want to know if theyve got the abilities right, ie - Wolves should clearly be the worst team, Arsenal the best, judging on last season. AND Southampton should be better than Portsmouth (better f*cking be!), as well as Tottenham, Blackburn etc!

 

[Cristiano!]

Southampton and Pourtsmouth are two very evenly matched teams. I would say Pourtsmouth was the better now with the players they've aquired.

Those who know me from posting about PES3 and at IGN know I'm legit so..I got WE8 minutes ago!!!!!!!!! I'll be writing full hands-on impressions for IGN tonight I hope, but here's some quick stuff.

The feel is the same yet very different. Presentation is all new. the fonts, the backgrounds, etc all new. Much better than before. Everythings in japanese though, so even if you knew WE7I inside out, you'll have some problems to understand what the new options are. And theres loads of them. The main menu has big icons with englis text (League, Exhibition, Options etc) which you scroll left or right. Nice. FAST loading times too.
You CAN change player names, stadium and cup names right away and I think you can also mess around the team strategies without buying it in the WE Shop.

I've played three matches so far. Compared to WE7I you can dribble easier, you dont lose the abll right away..skill players are pretty good at getting around players.

Individual animations!!! Noticeable with Ronaldo, Becks and Raul (I played with Madrid)

Pretty out of date teams since it takes 8 weeks to get approval. So no Samuel in Real, which tells you where we are at. However the rosters are larger and I was able to load up a large amount of English names from my WE7I save. I just noticed switching players from team to team is VERY easy. In the edit menyu there's a separate option for it and you just click a payer, then select the team you want him and he's there...no need to scroll around for an empty slot where to insert him!!!

The presentation and cut-scenes during gameplay dont interfere with the gamepaly at all, they really help make the athmospere better.

Ok back to playing...

some photos I snapped to prove this

Don't worry if the players aren't in the correct teams because according to Riot of IGN it'll be much easier to do the transfers!

thx a lot for the clarification mate. see how french might come in handy

 

[Myros]

I really really hope they've increased the GK's AI. Its so damn easy to score PES3, and the GKs stupidity could be infuriating.

 

[Itachi-san]

the argentine goal was pretty cool. that header is a definite new move. its much more realistic than the two foot jump.

 

[razor]

is patching for this game going to have to be done on DVD's cause i am going to need to buy a dvd writer then. i cant see any way of being able to rip the dvd onto cd if there is no foreign commentry to be taken out. has anyone got any idea whether this game will be able to get ripped or not?
