This is a great game i baught this the day it came out the reason i have not given the game 5/5 is because it has not got all the licences for kits and club names although the have got player names now unlike prior PES versions.
i love the game it is so addictive and the gameplay is excelent, the players move like they do in real life and you can do so many different skills you can do in real life.
One of the main reason i baught this game is because of the online play it has instead of havin your friends round all the time you can still play when they are not at your house. you can play them online or any random person online so you can improve. But sadly this is not the case as konami have designed a very bad, online is more or less unplayable. It is so slow and choppy the players and ball dissappears and appears somewere else. IVe been able to play maybe 10% of the time a decent game were it was playable but majority of the time it was impossible for me to play a good game.
The offline play is pretty good, single player mode the game does not get slow when there are a lot of players on the screen unlike the nxt gen versions that have lots of slowdowns. the replays can be saved while being view or they can be saved at the end of the match were they show the full highlights. On the old version it was not possible to save replays after the match was over so its quiet handy if you click start by accident and forget to save your super goal. The game is more slower when you play with more controllers,
Konami recently released a new patch ive used this patch and ive noticed that the online play has improved but its stil not great.
One of my favourite features of this game is the edit mode you can upload your picture on to the game then edit it in to your created player and it looks just like me.:)
