as to where they want him to run by clicking in the open space. However, it's what happens with your teammates that will prove to be the defining moment of this latest PES. Users will be able to click on other members of their side and tell them where to run, to perform one-two passes or make them create space by dragging away defenders.It will be possible to manipulate as many players as you can quickly get control of to make set pieces become a vital part of the attacking play. Make forwards run across goal, defenders will spin and attack the back post while the towering striker makes a dart for the near post - all of which is controlled by you.The game will automatically detect the type of pass you want to make depending on the distance the player you want to pass to is standing. If you point for a pass to a player on the other side of the pitch, the game will loop a high ball over. Likewise, if you chip a ball into space, you can then grab the nearest player and move him towards it.New gameplay modes have been added, including the Champions Road option. Players get the opportunity to train sub standard team and then play off against other teams online. Defeating these CPU teams enables you to take some of their players and strengthen your team on the road to glory.

award-winning Pro Evolution Soccer Series, which is known by millions of fans for its superior gameplay and incredible realism. For PES 2009, Konami is already planning a raft of extensive new additions that will further bridge the gap between PES and the real thing.

game builds on the implementation of the new thechnology Teamvision with additional key advances. As with previous releases since its inception in 1996, the ball is again treated as a separate entity, with the timing of shots entirely down to the player, while the new AI ensures that defenders work to close down space and block efforts on goal. Similarly, distribution of passes works along the same lines, with players using the space available to them to switch the ball. Close control has also been enhanced with more control when dribbling the ball, and a number of subtle moves added to bypass defenders and move the ball into space. A huge range of options which provide a superb football simulation.

experience with its latest instalment, Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 (PES 2009). The main upgrades from year to year in sports simulators are the expected features such as extended and updated rosters, teams, players and stadiums, with extra game modes perhaps and improved AI; this is where PES 2009 conforms to the norm. The AI is more intelligent, there's a heightened sense of realism with unique camera angles and improved graphics as well as the functionality of PES 2009 over Xbox Live and in the brand new Become a Legend mode where players start off as an amateur footballer who becomes scouted out to play for a top club and then must prove that he can wing it with the pros.

Pro evolution soccer 2 is the latest in the award winning series by Konami. After making games for PS, PS2 and GameCube, Konami still seem to be going strong even after lacking in certain areas, such as player names, kits, logos.
The actaul game is great. It starts with a multilingual language support for 6 new languages and then a great new look video. The bsoundtrack being "We will rock you" is a sign that it's going to be good. The Opening sequence shows a keeper warming up and then an unbelieveable sequence of footage. The passion, the crowds, the goals, the tackles and of course the GRAPHICS.
When you've finally got past the opening footage the main menu comes up. Its a hub to all types of match ranging from illustrious cups, penaly kick matches and the much loved friendlies.
There are several new additions to the teams such as Senegal and Aston Villa. There are now 56 International teams,40 Club teams and 9 new classic teams that you could still unlock. The master league is fantastic as you can create your own dream team in a new original way.
The training mode is improved as you can now enter a FIFA/UMBRO moderated training session competing against the clock to gain a place on the leaderboad with some of the worlds greatest stars such as Beckham and Ronaldo.
The downfall with the game are the FIFA pro licenses are missing for both international teams and club teams. The team names are even wrong so this is a major setback in their quest to become the worlds greatest soccer game. The latest transfers such as RIO FERDINAND to MAN UTD are missing so thats a minus too, but overall the game still lives up to high expextations predicted beforehand.
The game being a sequel is based on the original in that the bare bones of the game are still there. The master league is now split into three divisions so you have to work your way up. You can now play the master league with a friend to see who has what it takes to be a real life manager like Bobby Robson or Arsene Wenger.
The gameplay itself starts with a wild array of crazed fans in the background with a vvoice over from in-favour commentator Jonathan Pierce. Then the game kicks off. All the passion and heartache that has gone into the game is just 90 minutes away from glory/dispair. You can score amazing goals ranging from WAYNE ROONEY to VAN NISTELROOY, SHEARER penalties or DAVID BECKHAM free kicks. The overall graphics are amazing
So overall the game is not complex, hoghly addictive and very enjoyable. A great Christmas present for all you football fans out there. To continue the debate of: IS Pro Evolution soccer 2 better than FIFA 2003. Then I say YES but thats my personal opinion. I would like to hear what others think to give a greater, more worthwile opinion on the topic. So if anyone writes comments please could you include your view. Thankyou for reading, Hope this helped you in your quest to footballing glory.
The game is priced at £35.99 and is available in all major gaming shops - unless it's sold out!!!
Advantages: most realistic game on market to date Disadvantages: one or two minor in game annoyances.
...match commentary. Whilst Pro Evolution 2 has a great amount to offer players in single player mode, a variety of cups and leagues as well as the new umbro pro training centre, and the ability to unlock secret teams (a good few more than PES1) for me it is still the multiplayer game which keeps me coming back for more. The game has been tightened up so it is harder to thrash players who have only played a few matches as it really has become a lot ... ...the game more challenging and enjoyable. Always great for an hour or so even when you have exhausted all the single player options.
All the features of the first game such as player creation and editing have been included this time around with the much needed and greatly appreciated team editing option now added (finally no more LONDON instead of Arsenal) so you can create your own players and save them with a memory catridge giving the game that ...

Advantages: Can play on it for hours! Disadvantages: Fairly old, soon 2 be a new one out
...the nationwide league teams), the Pro Evolution Soccer gang have done it again, with the brilliant, entertaining and extremely addictive Pro Evolution 2! Just whilst you were worrying about having to watch Tim Henman dither with Wimbledon and play in it for a week and a half, the football experts have brought you right back on to the edge of your seat again!
Although this game was brought out quite a while ago, I thought it was important to remind ... ...have the rest of the Pro Evolution Soccer games (even the ones that came out on the PS1) you can still see how each new release has been that little bit extra. I dont think ill be the only one who'll say that this version is miles better than any of the others that ive played!
The downsides of the game are of course that alot of signings which were made during the season havent been made, and a few of the transfers which were made before last season ...

Advantages: Fantastic realism, gameplay, longevity, repsect from friends... Disadvantages: Wrong names, update disk flawed
...of you who don't know Pro Ev 2 is a football simulation game to end all footie sims. It is the sequel to the best selling pro ev 1 which was spawned from the International Superstar Soccer range. It is quite simply the only football game worth playing on any games system you care to name and heres why:
The stats on which the players attributes are based in this game comes from the same people that provide them for Champ Manager the undisputed king ... ...its worth the damage.
Pro Ev 2 goes for about £20 these days (try Gameplay) and is well worth it for anyone interested in football at all. If you've got the first game its still worth it for more teams and better master league, smoother, quicker gameplay and the ability to actually score freekicks as well! I for one am looking forward to the third version of the game due for release on 28th Novemeber this year. Lets hope its another stormer and ...

...balls and crosses. Pro Ev 2 also holds back on stupid tricks but does have a few to keep you entertained such as the step-over and the dummy.
Although some superstars have not given the game rights to use their name Pro Evolution compensates for this with fake names which allow you to know who they are such as "Ronoldo" is well "Ronaldo" duh! other names include "Roberto Larcos" aka "Roberto Carlos"
Pro Ev 2 isnt just an amazing two player game ... ...you are new to the Pro Evolution franchise then they have something called a Master League.
This means that you pick a team to play with and well manage.You are given a team full of drop outs who you will need to try hard to win with. Once you do win you get points for example 300 for a win ect and bonuses for goals scored. With these points you have to pay wages and arange transfer of players.Season after season you will gain more and more points ...

...a girl, I thought, mmm Pro Evolution....whats the fuss???!!! My brothers play it, my boy friend plays it and all their friends and my friends play it....all boys of course!! So I thought, ok I will give it a go. Normally I preffer to play my nintendo game cube playing mario or sonic or something a bit more colourful and playful...but playing a football game isnt normally my thing. I was getting so sick and tired of watching everyone play Pro Evolution, ... ...can learn to be a pro at the game. It is good if you have a lot of time on your hands because trust me....its really addictive!
Pro Evolution 2 just came out recently as we all know, and the best thing about the new game (being from Scotland) is that Rangers and Celtic are now in it. (even though im a Motehrwell fan :) ) but it makes the game a bit more interesting and competitive for us Scots. Overall, if you like playing computer games, and like ...

Advantages: Great Range of games! Disadvantages: The Technology is five years old and doesnt compare in graphics to the XBOX and Gamecube
The Sony PlayStation 2 is the sucessor the successful PlayStation, its 128 bit with 295mhz processing power, 2 USB ports and a kick ass range of games available.
The range of great games vary from Time Crisis 3, Gran Turismo 4, Killzone, DragonBall Z Budokai 3, Red Faction, Timesplitters 2, ProEvolutionSoccer 4 and more!
The PlayStation 2 is fully backwards compatible with PlayStation games and is very useful! It also plays DVD Video so you can play movies at great quality, the great thing with this feature is that it saves money buying a DVD Player and you dont have to buy a remote control to view them unlike Microsoft's XBOX
I reccommend this console to anyone, its a great buy! HAHA! ...
Advantages: All the official teams, kits and players Disadvantages: Sluggish controls
FIFA Football 2003 is the third title of the FIFA series for PS2. FIFA's previous titles on PS2 have not lived up to the quality of ProEvolutionSoccer will things be any different this time?
In FIFA 2003 you can play as your desired team on a variety of modes. The first one is The Club Championship which has the top 18 clubs in Europe slogging it out for the biggest prize in the game. This is a fun mode if you support any of the top teams like Manchester United or Celtic. It's basically a league format with each team playing twice and the top 8 teams progress to the Quarter Finals which is the knockout stage.
You can also play Season Mode for a 5 year run at making it to the top. Or if you prefer just plain old Exhibiton mode. There is also a Tounement mode aswell.
The game is good because you have all the official ...
Advantages: An amazingly addictive game with endless possibilities Disadvantages: Online play can be a poor experience
INTRODUCTION
Generally speaking, I have only ever been interested in 2 games series on the Playstation: Grand Theft Auto and ProEvolutionSoccer (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 ProEvolution which moved onto the PS2 to become ProEvolutionSoccer. 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, where you can build a team in your own image. It was difficult to move on from a side of serial winners, regularly hoovering up every trophy going with reliable ease. That was ...
