Pro Evo 8

No journals about the new pro evo, you people disappoint me! Never to fear here it the tosspot review on pro evo 8!

Me and my housemates play a stupid amount of Pro Evo and NOTHING else these days simply because very little comes close to the free flowing action of first Pro Evo 4 and then the last edition before this. This edition HAD to be good other wise, like with pro evo 5, i would have just taken it back.

Fortunately its brilliant :D

The important thing they kept was the free flowing nature of pro evo along with the arcade freedom that FIFA never has. In FIFA your every move is slowed down by the 10 seconds it takes for your player to get the ball under controll and move it on, to play the Arsenal style of football in FIFA is just impossible, but in Pro Evo 8 it still is!

The pace is good, theres a little more weight on the average pass however players initial controls and reactions to the ball are a little more intelligent than they used to be. Additionally you can still take on players and skin them again unlike the latest fifa.

They've really worked on the goalkeepers too, firstly you can throw the ball much quicker which was so annoying on the last one when you wanted to break quickly. Secondly their saves and movement is better. petr cech even made a diving save with his feet and such which is v. good.

All in all its rather good and a sound investment of £40!

Anyone else got it?

You're either a 10 year old kid or know nothing about football if you prefer fifa.
Parent
i'm neither 10 years old nor i have no sense about football because i have been playing it for about hm 12 years in real life (you probably know football only from tv or pc :o)?
however fifa is just much more fun playing with friends since i don't sit in my room all day trying to beat a simple computer enemy
Parent
hu?
so this is what is against pes ? :D
Parent
Actually I've been playing it for 13/14 years myself.

And I bet you've never tried PES in your life.
Parent
i tried it but it's too fast and to hard to just play some matches on x360 with friends...i mean you need too long to get used to it
Parent
the key word is " i ".

pls stop being a internet warrior and calm down.
Parent
I have it, but I'm waiting for some "superpatch" to come out before I really get into it :)

Ok, summarizing your story:

You fell in love with this game and we should all buy it.

Maybe

Parent
slovenians ... tz

<3 :D
Parent
Mine didnt come from play.com coz of the fkin royalmail backlog! :@:@

Btw www.pesladder.com ;)
im gonna get it soon
im gonna buy it soon hopefully. I always find fifa to be a shit version of football, where ur shots are always on target/near the target and the ball is stuck to ur feet while ur moving at
1 mph and the passes always seem to go to ur target 90% of the time. i find pro evo so much more realistic with its gameplay and the way u can mug ppl off with ur skillzzzz
Downloading it now.
pfft download the demo, then buy the real game if u like it :s i only really play online neways
