INTRODUCTION Generally speaking, I have only ever been interested in 2 games series on the Playstation: Grand Theft Auto and Pro Evolution Soccer (PES). This may well be why I have never written a games review before. Since the old days of the PS1, with International Superstar Soccer, I have followed with great keenness the various incarnations of this great game over the years; ISS became ISS Pro Evolution which moved onto the PS2 to become Pro Evolution Soccer. I had 4 versions of this on the PS2, buying each new version with metronomic regularity. For some reason, I never moved past PES5 on the PS2, becoming deeply involved in the Master League subplot, ...  Read the complete review

First of all I would just like to say that I have played the Pro Evolution Soccer series for years, my first being Iss Pro Evolution 2 (a game that I used to love as a kid). Throughout my time as a Pro Evolution Soccer player I have seen many changes, some for good, and some not so good. As I don't own Pro Evolution Soccer 2011, this is my incumbent game and so will try and highlight some of the changes that I have seen in Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 from previous versions. The thing that always brought me coming back to Pro Evolution Soccer was both the gameplay and the graphics. First of all I would just like to say that I feel that Fifa has begun to overtake Pro ...  Read the complete review

When Pro Evolution Soccer was released it was meant to rival the already established franchise of Fifa. When it was first released many people thought that they did just that in the way the game played. With the first release everyone was excited because even though it was good with it being their first release the feeling was it would carry on improving. This game for me didn't do that at all and has without doubt given the crown to Fifa without a big fight. Price You can now get this game for just over £20 which isn't the best value seen as though the next one is coming out. I don't suggest taking a risk with this and instead I recommend you go ...  Read the complete review

Well in my opinion Pro Evolution Soccer has finally gone and done what I always feared, lost its crown to FIFA. I purchased this game on release day and couldn't wait, I then started playing the game and was really not impressed. The game seems a lot slower and the wing play seems to have come to a halt. I always used to enjoy playing down the wing with a pacey front man but this seems to now have vanished. The multi player mode also shows how boring the game has got, with the game not being the exciting spectacle that we have all been useful. The graphics are still very good which I have to admit, it's just the gameplay which I think has ...  Read the complete review

Konami's gigantic feast is blighted by the indifferent prejudice Pro Evolution continues to unfairly receive 2010, a decade has passed since Pro Evolution Soccer 1 started its life on the Playstation yet the series still suffers in popularity whilst its rival Fifa continues to gain all the accolades and praise. This game has the problems that the previous games did in making itself attractive to gamers in that many think the game is half-baked and lacks the basic qualities that is expected of games in the modern era. They point out that the commentary is repetitive and inconsistent, the game play is slow and dogged, the teams aren't licensed and the set-up ...  Read the complete review
