Sorry to double-post, but to reply to you specifically jambotommy... I bought PES to play online as well, I wouldn't dream of playing it offline (seeing as it's the same game offline as it has been for the last God-knows-how-many years, in terms of competitions and how the ML works).
But that's exactly why I find it a God-awful game.
After applying the patch, it's still full of cheats and half-cheats (every game of five I played last night was against someone just TWATTING shots from the half-way line, keeper can't hold it, their modified formation puts a striker next to the keeper, tap-in, goal). This ain't football. If you had the ability to set up your own mini-leagues it would be different, but you don't.
So that means one whole year of Man U v Barcelona, every frigging game? With cheats and half-cheats?
Sorry, by all means have your fun, but the game is piss-poor in my eyes. And Konami haven't replied to any of several emails and letters either.
A month after release I'm still hating the game (where 90% of the forum were saying "you'll love it after a month, you're just a moaning bastard"). This really has been the last time I blindly follow Konami.
) but if they are that sad that they are that desperate for wins on a video game thats designed for fun, then to be honest i pity the pathetic souls more than i dislike them.
