Pro Evolution Soccer (PS2) Reviews

Arguably one of the best football games to have ever been created. Not only is the action as intense and compelling as what you'd expect from watching an actual football game, but the different features that are available also enhance the game's quality. Some people are FIFA people. Some people are Pro Evo people. The latter group is obviously the ...  Read the complete review

Pro Evolution Soccer is the first game in a long line of football themed games. Orginially, you could only by this game on a couple of platforms, but after its sucess, you could buy it on them all. I got it on this console, Playstation 2, and I loved it. Although it is a bit basic, and now near the standard as the one's that are out now, I still ...  Read the complete review

There seems very much to be a division between gamers, especially on the PS2. Whenever I?m reading magazines or browsing websites there is always an opinion on whether ?they? prefer the FIFA or PRO EVO soccer titles. I, myself have never disliked either of the range and so when I first got my PS2 I decided I?d try Konami?s latest soccer offering ? ...  Read the complete review

I picked this up cheaply recently, I had given up on football games having played numerous rubbish ones in the last few years. The reviews I'd read led me to believe that this game was different, it was the best football game ever, apparently. The first thing I noticed about this game was how bad the controls are. If the players ...  Read the complete review

To be honest I actually didn't want this game, it was given to me for Christmas along witha shiny new PS2 and GTA3. Apparently my dad had asked the man in EB for what game to buy for me. He could have easily told my dad to buy Army Men or some other disgrace to the gaming world, but no he did not. This man is a saint, for little did I know as ...  Read the complete review

Imagine playing football on tarmac, wearing roller skates, and you get an idea of playing Pro Evolution Soccer for the PS2. This is a game that has got 95% + reviews in magazines so my expectations were high. I was disappointed to find that it was a virtual carbon copy of the awful FIFA series for the original Playstation, except with ...  Read the complete review

I have to say that this game is simply the best footy game that anyone could ever hope for. I bought this game over a year ago now and yet im playing it every time i switch on my playstation2. The realism and the intuitive controls make you want to keep coming back for more, and this game is easy to pick up at the offset. As you play more and ...  Read the complete review

Having played each of the International Superstar Soccer series over the years, it amazes me how the team at Konami has been able to improve on perfection each time. With the new Pro Evolution Soccer you find yourself locked not only in excellent gameplay, fluid movements and very impressive graphics but also in a real football match. The ...  Read the complete review

The only football game better than this is its big brother ISS2. This game has a more a simulation feel to it than the arcade feel of ISS2. However this is still a class game and probably the best football game if you have no mates. The speed of the game is second to none, but the option is there to control the level of speed frm ...  Read the complete review

Kicks the crap out of FIFA any day! - Advantages: Easy-to-use control method, Real names, Club teams as well as international - Disadvantages: The guy behind the counter still recommends FIFA!

Now if there is one game that I can actually right about and review its Pro Evolution Soccer ( PES from now on ). I originally like many others was a FIFA fanatic, the lure of the commercial name was just too much to leave. That was until I found PES, I'd read the reviews in certain gaming magazines and it was beating FIFA hands done, ...  Read the complete review

Although I don't as of yet own a playstation 2,I have played on my mates one and he owns many games such as James Bond,GTA 3,Max Payne,etc.All of these games are good and GTA 3 is exceptionally class but none of these live up to pro evolution.It was pondered whether the playstation 2's "ISS's" would live up to the standard ...  Read the complete review

I just have to say that this is without a doubt the greatest football game ever to appear on any console. The original ISS games from Konami set the standard for all other football games to follow and has always been way ahead in the ISS versus FIFA rivalry. I purchased this game on release date after reading about what was supposed to ...  Read the complete review

Now this is a quality Football game ? how can anyone ever match this game for playability? It?s so good that I would bore everyone to death trying to get across the positive points! It just plays like a real game of Football with overlapping runs from fullbacks, mazy dribbles from the class players, hard to beat opposition goalkeepers, tackles ...  Read the complete review

Unfortunatly this game has more negative than plus points. I will admit that my advice and comments are mainly based on the fact that I have been an avid ISS player since its original arrival on the SNES many years back.. Considering that the PS2 had earmarked the rights to the ISS colelction, and that it was the big new console on the ...  Read the complete review

Quite simply the best footie game available on the PS2. IT's good in one-player but really comes into it's own in the muti-player option, get a few mates together a multi-tap and enjoy! This is easily the most realistic footie game I've played, you really have to work at scoring goals, unlike other games where you can run the ...  Read the complete review

Pro Evolution Soccer is the best football game that is around on the Playstation 2 and it leaves Fifa 2002 and all other football games standing. You have more control with regards passing the ball to other players; the movement of players and the control of the football is excellent. I feel that it is much harder to score a goal than it is in ...  Read the complete review

Pro Evolution Soccer is undoubtedly the best football sim ever, this is until the next in the Pro Evolution series comes out. You simply have to play the game for an hour or so and you are hooked, the game is almost a perfect adaption of the beutiful game. The only low point is the dreary commentary, and this can be changed. The phrase that comes ...  Read the complete review
