The referees are a bit funny at times - had a pen given against me earlier that was a meat and potatoes sliding challenge, ball and man taken but absolutely no way a ref would even think it was a pen.
I'm loving the free kicks from deep and out wide, whipping them into the box. It's great how everyone in the box is sucked towards the goal, falling over each other to try and get something on it. Thought I'd put too much on one earlier only for Olic to have peeled off the back of the scrum and throw himself at it. The ball was already travelling at a heck of ampace but the sound as it thwacked off his skull and into the side netting harder than most people can kick a ball... I was amazed he got up and walked away from that. If he'd scored I'd have been so bloody proud.
I've not done much with Chivas or Internacional yet, I had a game but struggled with the kit clash. Looks like I'll have to give the demo another whirl tomorrow...
I had this yesterday, but played nearly all my v CPU games with the Copa teams, much better for me, more realistic again. Try Internacional in the red top with Chivas in the striped top, the one that looks like Athletico Madrid. There is no problem in game with that combination.
As for Adam, well, he doesnt really need to be doing that, but fair-play to you, it highlights that fact you will play the game you feel more accurately represents football, regardless. EA had their chance, you gave them all the help they could ask for, and they didnt use it. More fool them. I have been naughty today, I woke up this morning and decided I would give myself a days holiday. Hmmmmmmmmnnn what should I do to fill my time I wonder ?
Last night I pulled off the Dragback Pass, I have seen it done in the MLO beta but never done it myself. It requires a player to have a decent level of technique, and the situation to arise, but like all classic PES games, the animation is automatic, which makes you smile even more. I love the way he makes the pass then breaks his neck to make the run into space. Unfortunately, on Top Player Ai the CPU played spoiler and intercepted it. Either way it was beautiful to behold.

I'm embarresed to say that I played 12 hours straight yesterday, and never scored one goal against the CPU Top Player.
