Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 – 6 Months On
11 May
I have been playing the latest version of Pro Evolution Soccer now for the last 6 months. Naturally I feel like I have given the game plenty of time to show me what it has to offer. I am the sort of gamer who only really plays when I have friends over. For this version of Pro I have mainly just been playing a 2 player Master League vs the computer. We are Bolton, but started the Master League in D2.
As with all ‘season’ games which come out every year, we always compare to past versions and of course competitors. The PES vs Fifa battle has been going on for over 10 years now, every year people voicing their opinions on which is the better football series.
First of all let me point out the positives for this years PES.
- Player faces and kits looking as accurate as ever (with the help of the editors at pesgaming)
- Camera angle. Particularly at the start of the game looks very realistic
- Score and time graphics. Finally PES has put the time and score together on the left hand side so it looks more like when we watch football on television.
- Can win a penalty. This is a dig at last years PES where I started to believe it was actually impossible to win a penalty.
- Stadium editor is a great addition. I have been calling for this for years. Its just a shame it is so limited.
Now for the negatives…
- Tackles and Fouls. Free kicks and Penalties being given even when a player has clearly got the ball first.
- Penalty kick system. Change it, change it, change it!!! I want a power bar and the option to chip, its not difficult. Fifa 10 had it very close to perfect.
- Master League transfers system. Why cant I choose how much im prepared to pay for a player out of my budget?
- Passing. Ive found it really difficult to score ‘arsenal style’ goals this year as the passing pace and accuracy seems worse than ever. I thought it was meant to be the year of ‘freedom’
- Auto kick off. This really isnt necessary. Why did you add this?
I will leave my improvements for another blog. But personally I feel Pro Evolution Soccer hasnt hit the heights that were promised. Although I enjoy playing the game, the fact the ‘rules’ of football are not implemented in the game make it a rather poor title. This isnt football, this is something else.
