Yes, but two magazines have said the same thing now. Of course, your opinion can differ, but if if the magazines aren't saying "it's crap" or "it's great", then there's obviously not a lot that's changed. The fact that they have both said that gameplay is the same shows that. It may not be the final version but they've got very little time left in games-making terms to make any massive changes. I'm sure most of that time will be tweaking the slowdown and adding any important transfers. Which isn't good enough for me. The last three or four PES games have all been way too similar, to me, and I'm not going to buy another version of the same game with very little improvement to the core gameplay (freedom of movement, more control over everything, non-cheating AI, more teams, more competitions, improved master league - that's what I want to see, more changes to the depth of the game than anything, and until I hear more about all of this I won't be buying the game).
By the way, I apologise; you're not a fanboy if you buy it and like it, if it's PES6 with better graphics. I just expect a lot more than that personally, and I won't be buying it if that's the case. But of course, you have every right to, and I respect your opinion (whether we differ or not, you speak English without being insulting, and I respect that).
