Re: PES 2009 News, Discussion and Rumours
I'm really curious to see what kind of DLC Konami are planning to release. I remember a seabass interview saying they couldnt do roster updates for the ps2 version because of licensing issues. Although, if they can have all, majority, of the players with real names swapping them about shouldnt be a big deal and do-able. But then it shouldnt be something to pay for either imo.
I was thinking about PES5 the other day, seeing as the new pes is being compared to it. I'm not sure if you guys had this aswell, but for me PES5 just went a bit too far and lost some balance. This isn't supposed to be a "have a go at pes" post, as I loved that game. However it may seem that way as I'm only highlighting its flaws compared to the previous versions. But maybe some of you will recognise what I'm talking about. It's not really relevant to this thread but was curious what you guys thought.
I used to play daily against a mate of mine and started this from ISS98. We would usually play 3x 30min. matches and from ISS98 to PES4 they would always be very close games. However I remember PES5 being the game were the first goal would give the win. For some reason the majority of our matches would end as 5-1, 4-1, ect. Which was odd considering the previous years and matches we would nearly always win/lose by the single goal. They were always so much closer. Did any of you notice this? They just seemed to put to much "power" in to the winning team.
As for single player, it was the first game were I actually noticed the scripting. People had complained since PES3 about it, but for me the fact that the cpu would step up its game the last 10/15 min., even if it was "artificial", would be realistic and would make hanging on for a 1-0, scoring a 2nd on the counter all the sweeter. However PES5 was the first game in my experience that would actually script my players as opposed to only hyping up the opposition/cpu. Defenders not reacting, wingbacks failing to tackle to stop the winning cross/header.
Did you guys have this aswell?
