It is ashamed KONAMI released this game again with lots of flaw. Online experience is still poor. Players are being teleported here and there. Even if you have decent connection, gameplay was very unreal. Players dribble ball and move direction just like anything and if you can keep side step 90degree you will almost certain to score goal or otherwise you will get conceded. There is no real football skill here. The online game is being played by jerks who just want to win the game and they just ride the poor game engine to play unrealistic soccer just to win the game!

After playing just 1 day. Enough for me to return this game to the shop again. Very dissapointing.

After I was so dissapointed I play FIFA 09 again. Oh well so much different. The more I love FIFA 09. In addition, EA is being great to release patch fixing bugs. This is really the company with the right attitude to keep customers. KONAMI is lagging in every aspects now. The only thing I see good is the graphics has improved. But doesn't this sound like FIFA few years back try to penalize incapability of creating real soccer game with real gameplay and they just hired college graduate to make players face look real.

Here is my verdict, the dissapointing fans of PES that defects to FIFA in the last 2 years.

Gameplay poor poor poor ... no way near the old PS2 version
Online experience poor ... players still teleporting
Online menu ... is not nextgen like .. it still in the PS2 world

I dont care much about the rest. If KONAMI unable to sort GAMEPLAY and ONLINE don't expect people will buy future PES and they can keep promising every year!
