PES 2012 - Preview
2nd August, 2011 11:00:00pmPosted by graday
We find ourselves in the middle of the PES revolution. Rewind 12 months, and you would see PES 2011 demanding that you re-learn everything you know. It was the same game that we're used to yet, at the same time, was entirely different. Some loved this new direction, others hated it - I, personally, reside in the former, with the caveat that, whilst the changes in PES 2011 were good (and needed) - it had a lot of work to be done before it could be classed as great.
Also, those that have followed my thoughts over the last 12 months will have seen my scribbling that PES 2012 would need to ditch the annual cycle of unnecessarily-complex overhauls and reinvention, and instead opt for a more streamlined approach - a process of improvement and refinement, with a particular focus on enhancing the most important element: gameplay.
As you're no doubt aware by now, this is exactly what Konami have done. Which leads us to ask the inevitable: Has it paid off? Will PES 2012 finally give us a great game of football?

Either way, we finally have a taste of what to expect in this year's final build.

After a few below-par displays, many were starting to believe that PES was out of the fight. The last few rounds had seen little initiative - and nothing that resembled the former Champion at it's best, but something changed in 2011.
The last round was never about winning, it was about proving that PES still had what was needed to be a champion, It was about making people believe again, it was about building for the future.
Now, we're gearing up for the next round...
PES 2011 updates - Really on the ball
15th October, 2010 06:30:00pmPosted by graday
Konami's first DLC for PES 2011 wasn't quite as flawless as they'd have hoped. There were no massive impacts on gameplay but, visually at least, there was one significant flaw - especially if you're from the emerald isle. But, there's no criticising the way the development team have responded to their initial shortcomings...
