Pro Evolution Soccer 2014 - PS3

Well, first of all, i want to say that i bought the game a few weeks ago, i didn't have access to the game when it was released, it seems the patches and the updates have fixed most of the problems that plagued the release version. I have played almost every iteration of this title since its release for the PSOne back in 1995/1996, name it "Goal Storm", "International Superstar Soccer - Pro Revolution", "ESPN MLS GameNight", "World Soccer Winning Eleven", "Pro Evolution Soccer" in the different platforms. This year iteration is totally different than last year's PES 2013, in fact, it feels like a different game; PES 2014 is more realistic/simulation (this time is harder to score 5 or 6 goals) than "arcadey"; you need to pass the ball carefully, press the direction pad in the intended direction and you also need to be careful when you receive the ball, aka control the ball; the FOX engine is a great addition and the game looks better than ever, you have a wide selection of shoes and balls (all are licensed); the players look great, Ronaldo looks and moves like his real counterpart, and the same thing can be said about others like Messi, Rooney, Bale, Xavi, Pique, Ramos, etc. The last update named "World Challenge" added a nice selection of shoes, the World Cup official ball, also improved some of the players faces, now Falcao looks like Falcao, James Rodriguez like James Rodriguez, etc, Brazil National Team is fully licensed, updated team rosters and uniforms, etc. In spite of the bad press that this game has received, it plays really smooth and fluent, the players move like real players and the animations are amazing; specially during the fouls, free kicks, corner kicks, celebrations, etc; i also want to highlight the ball physics, it is very realistic. There is a nice and wide Edit Mode where you can create your own teams and players, or edit the uniforms and names of the teams that are not licensed. There are enough gameplay modes to keep you busy and entertained, like UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, CONMEBOL Copa Libertadores, etc. Some leagues are fully licensed now, like the Argentinian, Dutch, Chilenian, etc; commentary in different languages: English (British), French, Portuguese (Brazil), Castellano (Mexico, Chile, Argentina), i want to highlight the Argentinian commentary by Mariano Closs and Fernando Niembro, probably the best in Fox Soccer Latinoamerica, it adds a plus factor to the experience and it's so close to the real thing. When it comes to gameplay, it seems the goalies can save long distance shots better than close range shots; some times it looks like the defenders run faster than the strikers, so you will have to rely on "Tiki-Taka", accurate moving and passing/ball possession, FC Barcelona & Spain National Team style; there are plenty of strategies and also a Training mode where you can master the game basics. Like i said before, i have played the game for a few weeks and i have found hard to score a "header", the soundtrack is nice, cool and the Menus are easy to navigate, probably very simple. I haven't played my first online match yet so i really can not review it; i would recommend this game to everyone, even to people who don't like, enjoy soccer games, it is very fun and entertaining and you will not go wrong with this one; buy it.

its really diferent from the older vercions but different is not bad, mariano closs and fernando niembro are great and give a little extra to the game, you will be frustraded but it wll probide hundreds if hours of fun, intenet is not laggy at all and game runs smoothly, i read a lot of bad reviews but my advise is that if you REALLY love futbol then this game will be perfcet, mi friands hate it i love it

Super

Excellent

excellent game of soccer, really konami has been working hard to improve their soccer game engine and worked hard to meet the needs of new consumers that are more demanding, no doubt this game is a great job by konami, congratulations, I loved the game. the gameplay, new features, requiring commands to make plays and more game tools. It's a game that I love.

The only visible flaw in this game is with the online play. Keypads seem to be unresponsive during online gameplay but I believe the developers will fix that soon with an update. Other than that, it is the most realistic soccer game out there. The graphics is a little blurry but that is understandable considering the newly designed fox engine is more advanced than the ps3. Player movement is very realistic. If you want a soccer game which is not challenging and easy to play then PES2014 is not for you. You should probably buy FIFA2014. But if you are a hardcore soccer fan, hardcore gamer and you want a challenging game, PES2014 is for you. Alot of things have changed. You will have to learn alot of new things in 2014. Patience is the key in this game as you will realize that most 2013 game moves you learn't won't work in the 2014. Make the training mode your friend and you will soon realize that you are improving and enjoying the game more.

With the current patches and upgrades, PES 2014 easily beats its rival Fifa. Feeling like you're in total control of the team, without the scripted feel of Fifa, makes for a better game. The controls take a while to get used to and the learning curve is somewhat steep. But once you master the controls, you'll be playing the best soccer (football) games you've ever played.

元々はウイイレ派でした。 この商品の問題点は確かにある。 ・バグがあるのでマスターリーグ(ML)/ビカム・ア・レジェンド（BL）では10試合に1回のセーブは必須。 ・スタジアムが少ないのでBL(省略)では有名チームに移籍しないとKONAMIスタジアムばっかりで飽きる。 ・BLでの初期能力の問題点だがドリブラーやポストプレイヤーに特化しているタイプがないので能力を 上げるまで時間がかかる。 また次に良い点 ・FIFA14やウイイレ2014と違い、動きがリアル。 選手の重心/体勢を考えボールをトラップしたりパス、シュートをしないと精度が格段に下がるので 繊細な操作が必要となり、やりがいがある。そのためプレーがうまくいった時の興奮は上記2点の ゲームとは比べ物にならない。YouTubeで参考に。 ・BL、GK編：普通の選手がペナルティエリア内でシュートを打ってきても止めれることが多い。 セービングもなめらかで枠隅へシュートされても華麗に片手で弾くなんてこともある。 ただ最初のうちは初期能力が低い為、一流選手(ルーニー/C・ロナウド)が相手になってくると 球速が早く、弾いても軌道を変えるのが精一杯って感じで入ってしまうことがある。(現実の試合でもあるので納得) ※一応ゲームなので、意味不明なセービングの動き(操作ミスかな＾＾；)は時々ある。 FIFA１４やウイイレ2014の選手のプレーを見たら分かる通り、カクカク過ぎて現実的には有り得ない。 どんな一流選手でも自分が思ったところに100％の確率でトラップ、パスするなんて不可能に近い。 それを考えた時にウイイレは辞め、これを買いました。(価格的には高いがリアルサッカーをするなら仕方がない)

If you're looking for a soccer video game, just buy Fifa

I have also been playing soccer games forever and the 2011/2012/2013 Winnning Eleven soccer game which are also produced by Konami and released here in japan along with this year's PES 2014 game have pathetically unrealistic gameplay aside all the new tech they have attempted to mix in the game , Passing is Horrible, and the general game itself with lag issues when flipping through the different consoles is a huge disappointment. I have loyally bought Konami's soccer games until the winter of 2011 which was the first year that I felt that their team was obviously having a huge mental meltdown releasing a very unpolished game of flawed soccer. Poor effort by Konami, poor decisions in investment with the game, and the result once again is a poorly manufactured soccer game. Very disappointed in Konami's effort this year !! PES2014 is Terrible !! and I "would not" recommend buying it to anyone .. PES 2013 was good , so just stick with playing PES 2013 and don't waste your money buying 2014 because you will be disappointed and shocked at Konami's weak effort this year.
