I am the same kid who reviewed on February the 10th. I have played the game for a few weeks now and have also taken a look at Fifa 07 which is supposed to be "as good or better than the w. e. games). After 3 years of seperating with ea soccer games (except Fifa street 2), I am still very cautions to go back. The main problem with konami is that it doesnt have the licenses and apparell that fifa games have. Even though the gameplay is top notch, at the end of the day, people want to play with there favorite teams and players.(which I have heard Fifa 07 doesnt have all the leagues on it) This is the cross road. You can choose a game that is flashy and beefed up with licenses (Fifa) or you can get a game that has game play that you will get your full money's worth for years to come.(W. E.)
If you are still reading, you have probably chose the winning eleven series. Many people do not give this game its full due credit. Like gametrailers.com gave it an 8.4! People are saying that it hasnt changed much, but that is a good thing!! Think about it, for people having past games of the series, Similar controls create a more emersive game. for new gamers, the controls are simple and easy pick up. but i do sugest you start on one star or in this game "very easy" and face a weaker team like Japan (sorry guys, but but just like America, we can do many things except soccer) or you will be torn apart again and again and again. As I said in the last review, shooting is alot harder and more sensitive in this game. Even ronaldinho, Kaka, David Beckham and Didier Drogba have trouble keeping their shots down. Making this game more realistic. Even though you might not have ever used this before, STOP AT THE TRAINIG MODE BEFORE YOU PLAY!!!!! It will save you alot of frustration. Since the control scheme is similar to the others in the series, seasoned gamers should play a few matches on regular, once you feel good in the match mode do what I did, complete A league on regular(this is the real test because it is a bit harder than in the match mode) then, you once you finish the league in 1st place, start playing match mode again on professional and follow the same proccess. For soccer fans i highly suggest playing on professional, It is SO much fun! It is like playing a game of chess, you have to stratagize. Since every team is differant, see how they react to passes and so on, make a pass only when you have a quick back up plan, and remember, every move you make can get you closer or furth from a goal, which is a great feeling by the way because there are no more "sweet spots" in this game, you have to earn every goal, NO! not just every goal! Every pass!
In the w.e. shop, you are supposed to be able to unlock new ball types. This is not available immediately just like W.E 8. I think you have to clear out everything you start off with in the W.E. shop then new stuff will be available. Now that you have all this info about this game, there is nothing stopping you from joining the Winning Eleven Nation!

Sorry to say that this game has failed to live up to my expectations.

My major gripe is the graphics in between the actual game and the non discript music. In my first hour of playing I kept hearing the same comments over and over again by the commentators.

On other football games I enjoy the tactics of managing a team and dealing with transfers, injuries and finances, I miss that with this game.

The actual game play is fun though.

Not as good as fifa

I bought this game and owned it for a week. I also own WE9. I have been playing Fifa since the days of sega genesis; some versions have really sucked and some have been great. I think fifa 06 and fifa 07 are at the top, in order of rank in the fifa franchise in terms of fun and overall gameplay. Pro evol. soccer controls seemed hard to figure out. There were just too many options to be worthwhile (while one could say fifa doesn't have enough options--be that as it may). The overall layout of the game just seemed confusing and non-intuitive. Navigation is frustrating. The players in gameplay seemed overly mechanical, more so than in fifa. Granted, the graphics are probably better in pro evol. soccer. Let's not even go into pro evol.'s soccer teams. This gets at the heart of the matter: Fifa is made by EA, which has tons of money and resources, while Konami does not. I think it shows in their presntation of each game. I think the only reason that somebody would want to own pro evol. over fifa is only if somebody wanted more strategic and gameplay options. Really, that's it. Bottomline is fifa is a blast w/ real players, and pro evol. is not a blast and mostly doesn't have real players.

Best soccer game created so far.

If you like soccer, get this game and forget FIFA. I thought FIFA was awesome till I played the older version at a friend's house and I was hooked. Most recently, I've played this new version every single day it seems like since I got my hands on it. The gameplay on this is outstanding, graphics are great, and the computer actually puts up a good fight! It really takes some time to master it, and even then you can up the level on the game and you find yourself having to learn new tricks to score.

Only downside is that the game does not have all the licenses that FIFA does, so if you wanted to play as an MLS team or German league, you can't. But it doesn't matter to me as I usually play international or English Premiership teams anyways. While those teams are included, SOME require some editing as there are no licenses for those teams either. But it's not hard and it'll take a only a little while to do...there are guides out there that tell you which team is which in real life and which player is which. For example, Claudio Reyna for USA is Reilla. You can usually figure out who it is too if you didn't use a guide. And team names sometimes are like Merseyside Red which equals Liverpool...but all the players are correct.

Overall, outstanding game, well worth the money.

Very solid

I thoroughly enjoyed this game when I purchased it a few months ago, and still hop on occasionally if nothing else is going on. The player movements and mechanics are some of the best i've seen in a sports game.
DEAD are the days where a player is attached to the ball as they run... now the ball has its own speed and force and the player needs to be careful or else it'll get away from them.
A bit hard to get a hold of the shooting at first- but it's no harder than real life I'd say. Good level of customization and nicely detailed leagues with plenty of info.
Highly recommended!

Stunningly realistic

Pro Evo 2007 is just plain awesome. With both player and ball movement outdoing anything that EA can come up with in the FIFA series, this is a game that is fun to learn in easy mode before increasing the difficulty. The numerous ways to score goals keeps the interest going and the different modes makes replicating the feats of your favourite country, team or player great fun.

Two hearty thumbs up

Over and over again!!!
