You were right, the PES-demo is nothing compared to the full version, probably similar to your beloved WE-demo... so you had the joy to play the polished product much longer than we poor souls.
I only wished you had posted a real full match-video on top-player like you promised to do, it would have calmed my nerves and answered a lot of questions.
But ok, the full version is here, it's all good, it plays way better than the demo, control is much more polished, teammembers are more aware and react quicker when selected (even player-switching has been improved) and espescially the CPU's attack-AI has been greatly improved.
Of course it's not perfect: Goalkeepers need more animations, referee must learn advantage, collisions need more variation... but that's nearly all, most of the problems of the demo were solved (except maybe for the greenzone-bug, haven't tried it yet).
Great game.
