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?

We've given you our thoughts on both the First look and preview codes and also shared our knowledge of the Master League Online BETA too, but all that pales into insignificance now - as we've finally laid our hands on the code that will be available to buy in the shops from October the 8th.

They will also have a pod cast later today so make sure you listen to that as well.
"They say there's no smoke without fire. Ever since PES 2011 was shown in Tokyo, and then most recently at E3, impressions from the press have been consistently positive. The improved competition has certainly moved the goal posts in-terms of what we now expect from a football game, but despite this the WEP team seem to be holding their own with ease so far. While the hardcore have remained loyal, with strong belief PES would somehow find it's way again, most had given up by now. These positive previews, then, have given us all hope that the king has indeed returned. Surely, everyone can't be wrong? It's this feeling of anticipation and confidence that runs through me as I pick up the controller for the first time to play PES 2011."
