    Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 is a good game, but it's one that has significantly failed to evolve over the last few years. The new modes add some potential interest for owners of last year’s game, but the Champions League is just flashy dressing for a competition that still doesn't feature all of the official teams, and the Become a Legend mode is neither as feature-packed nor as fun to play as FIFA 09's equivalent. If you love Pro Evolution Soccer's gameplay and simple... Read more

    And so it seems that the main strength of Konami’s title will once again lie where it always has – in the gameplay. With development cycles so tight, it might have been a little naïve to expect a game like Pro Evo, which has been refined over so many years, to be pitch perfect straight away on completely new hardware. The extra time that it has now been possible to invest is perhaps the key component in a series that so often in the past operated within only a few... Read more

    It seems to happen ever year now, the first impressions of PES tend to be bad ones, and it's only through repeated play that you get to appreciate its finer points. However, for a game that used to be so consistent, it would be nice to have a year where you can just unwrap the game, get on the pitch, and get playing, without having to worry about what's been fixed and what's still broken. Unless this does happen soon, and with FIFA getting stronger and ever popular, PES... Read more

    I've found the gameplay to be much the same as the 2008 version but a bit slower, to me making it a bit less realistic. Where as on Fifa you can select a speed that suits your gameplay requirements. The graphics on the game are stunning and players look very realistic but its frustratingly only got a small selection of stadiums, but this year includes wembley. I think the champions league inclusion is excellent, and a good addition to the game. Liverpool and Manchester... Read more

    PES 2009 is leaving FIFA in the shadows because of its superior on-line gameplay and overall factors, such as graphics and commentary. Where this game goes from here stirs the imagination, and gan only become better with the introduction of official teams, managers and referees. Thank you KONAMI!!!!!!!!!! Read more

    Up until Pro Evo 2008, Konami's footie game had always been my number 1. Back in its PS2 days, no game could touch it in terms of the intensity of a multiplayer match. Like many, I was disappointed with the '08 version but, having heard that Konami listened to the fans' protests, decided to give 2009 a go. While this installment is an improvement, it fails to make the huge strides that EA did with FIFA. The game remains mostly unlicensed apart from a welcome Champions... Read more
