Pro Evolution Soccer 2011

PC version get!

The new trailer looks good but one worrying thing seems to be the appalling goalkeeping on display. They could have put at least one save in surely??
Also those nets just annoy me...

Yeah they've probably scripted the scenes on display for the trailer, but I agree. some saves would be nice and yeah the nets are hung like 80's nets.

Hopefully, there'll be some proper in-game 1v1 human match-up footage in the future.

WENB impressions, pretty much spot on.

Do they say that every year?

Genuine question.

[ezee ryder]

Well, they are PES/WE based site so there is some bias but over the last year or so they have had a much more "down to earth" approach to the game.

Spent over three hours with this on Thursday (updated E3 code) and I will just say this, it is awesome. Finally, a proper "next-gen" version of PES.

[hudson]

Sounds promising mate. I read the GodisaGeek preview too. Thanks for that.

Does it actually offer something over Fifa though?

If it's anything like the past Pro Evo, a Far better headers and shooting system . Fifa headers has been poor since the very game onthe Mega Drive imo

I would agree with the headers statement up until the World Cup 2010 game. Headers are much improved and you see some real bullet headers fly in. As much as FIFA has been my game for the past 2-3 years I am once again intrigued by PES.
The goalkeeper issue is something that worries me though, its even mentioned in the extremely positive previews on WENB but they gloss over it with promises of 'it still being worked on'. In PES speak this usually means it will end up exactly the same in the finished game.

Headers maybe but Fifas current shooting on Fifa 10 owns Pro.

I'm really intrigued much like Stoppy though. I really hope it is good again but at the same time I can't afford to be buying both. Fifa is a must by because I mainly play clubs.

[hudson]

Stick to FIFA lads. You know you come in here looking for a reason to slate PES I'll be getting both!

[nakamura]

Not really, or do we have to start frothing at the mouth about a game we never played that hasn't delivered in 5 years? I don't think so. Good for you getting both, some of us can't afford to spend money on 2 identical style games at once.

[hudson]

PES won't be like FIFA this year.

[nakamura]

No but they are both simuation football games.
Fifa has clubs, PES has Japan and master league! Argh!
