I'm still wondering what people (kids?) are expecting.
There is absolutely NO reason to build up a "next gen" engine from scratch. The gameplay is good on the old one and the pool of animations is growing.
Konami infact created a new engine, based upon the PS2/PC one (first implemented in PES6/360). Why get rid of all the animations that have been created over the years ? Why get rid of a working physics engine ?
Why do some people call them lazy ? For me this is disrespect and childish/anti-social behaviour (If you don't get what you want, just moan and cry)
If you like the game, buy it
If you don't like it, leave it
It's true, we got a rushed up version last year. It should have been nice price from the first day (like Table Tennis)
PES 2008 will have:
- good gamplay
- new animations
- lots of good faces
- a deep edit mode
- a reworked AI
- multi platform support

btw:
If I had the choice, I'd just support ONE platform: PS3 (or 360), leave out a PS2, PC and 360 (or PS3) version. It takes too much resources porting/optimizing the game.
But to have good sales, you have to be platform independent unfortunally...

I'd also like to see a new ML structure with all European leagues licensed, but :
- we'll never get all licenses in PES, you have to choose FIFA if you want this
- I want to have a smooth running engine on 360/PS3 with edit mode and outstanding AI first. So my hopes are that we'll get a new ML in the next version.
Woooooooo!
