pro evolution soccer 5

PES is the only game I've bothered playing with other people in years. I am also "The Best" at it. Or at least the free kicks.

the commentator can barely believe that something so horrible, so sick could actually happen.

"OH NO!!???!!??! OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWN GOAL??!!?!!?"

Sort of reminded me of that "John Fashanu" thing on The Day Today.

pro ev 4 seems to have pre-empted real life with players constantly doing the finger over lips "sssh" thing to the crowd, though I don't think "what are you doing you idiot" when someone does it in PES.

hope they've made the lobs more difficult

i'd like the defenders to be a bit more intelligent. surely Konami can rent some AI technology from the pentagon or somewhere.

oh, and i really am the best at PES4. not only can i beat all my friends, but i asked my mum and she said i was.

?!

I just bought one

score!

I felt like a fly learning how to bark

PRO EVOLUTION IS THE BEST SOCCER GAME EVER BETTER THAN THAT CRAPPY GAME FIFA

(... and so is shadow of the colossus and the warriors, incidentally... the PS2 has had a great later life)

I am going to get pes 5, but I do hope that I have more time to properly devote to it this "season", I never quite got to any real level of skill with pes 4.

Also, it's harder to just keep the ball by changing by blithely changing direction at full pelt. This will probably make it harder for the people I play who like to just keep the ball until they can pass it to somebody on the six yard line and tap it in, which always irked me rather.

I am unintentionally committing a foul every four seconds.

I like how all the posts by people who now have it are just duck-in duck-outs...

I had a couple of 3-0 wins with England in friendlies to start with that lulled me into a false sense of security.

This is absolutely otm. It's like watching Liverpool. I have started picking Milan and Real Madrid to try and do better, but to no avail.

haha just kidding but I'm still rubbish

despite some unforgivable slowdown this thing is LOVELY

top tip in a line of top tips to come: change your long passing type to type 4... this means that inside the crossing box (tht area of the park where it normally auto-crosses if you press O) you still retain full (power-bar) control over long passes and so can better direct crosses... mmm lovely

I am getting into it now, I have to say, you can do some very fluid movements forward.

you can still use the ordinary crosses (O, Ox2, Ox3) by holding down L1 then pressing... this just gives you a nice other option, which is great for actually picking out players rather than relying on the randomness of the auto-cross

anyone down for some action if I get it going?

PES is good again btw. no need to piss about with the old versions

If this is true then all praise u for glad tidings but right now you're John Baptist and I'm gonna need to hear it from Christ himself before I start thinking about the outlay required here

Getting a new home that apparently handles PS2 emulation better than my TV pc

=-O

i have an xbox one as of tonight dis ting is on

oooh the youth team revamp is nice innit

new PES looks good

i got the use of an xbox one and bought 2018 for master league jollies, and at the end of season one all my money disappeared.

i did not react well. havent turned it on since. must go back for another effort

2020 has no idea at all what a foul is, and your defenders frequently casually jog away from through balls while the game refuses to let you switch to them, but I still can't stop playing it

that second flaw has always been a feature

nb i always play as spurs so yknow

Player switching was def better in 5 than it is now

picked up PES 2020 for £6 in the latest PSN sale. enjoying it but sgt biscuits otm - the foul system is pish

some other gripes:

- no idea why they needlessly changed the controls for moves which have been in the series from the year dot

- giving away a free kick outside your box is as bad as giving away a pen
