World Soccer Winning Eleven 6 International

"Best Football game ever."

Let me start by saying pes2 is the greatest football game ever made so buy it now. If you aint bought it yet read below and then go buy it.

GRAPHICS: 10/10
Super smooth, detailed, and sheer class. Especially the animations which are brilliant. On mucky pitches you can even see the ball bobble. Everything has been improved even the referee looks great. Players react to situations in an extremely lifelike manner. Very few games have better graphics (MGS2 and Onimusha2 are the only ones i can think of)

SOUND 8/10
hmmmm..Getting there. The commentary has improved greatly but Motson in Fifa is still soo much better. The crowd are more noisy and react to situations better which is an improvement. The main problem is that half way through Peter Brackley (main commentator) talking Trevor Brooking (analyst) barges in and starts speeking which is very annying. Overall things have improved greatly in the sound department.

GAMEPLAY 10/10
This is what matters to most people (myself included) and this is pes2's strong point. The movement is sooo smooth its unbeleivable. Players glide over the pitch. The speed has been toned down slightly to make it more realistic and has improved the gameplay. Everything feels so real and comfortable this really is what this game is all about.

CONTROLS 10/10
Another thing Konami have mastered. Everything you could possibly need to do is available. the controls are easy to get into but exceptionally hard to master. Every button is used to its full potential. Shots of all varieties can be acheived once you know how. The shot bar really is great. It gives you an idea of whats going on and once you know how much power to use you too will love it.

LIFESPAN 10/10
All i can say is MASTER LEAGUE. The ultimate challenge that you can never get bored of. Then there are all the cups to win, teams to unlock, and ofcourse there is the UMBRO training session. Which is great. Basically, it helps you master all areas of this game and unlocks extra stuff as well. This game will go on till pes3 is out. And thats at very least a year.

MULTIPLAYER 10/10
For me this is THE multiplayer game. Even with only 2 gamepads you can have up2 36 players!!! Its so great and if you ever do get bored on your own (which you wont) there will always be the absolutly brilliant multiplayer.

OVERALL 10/10
One of the very best games on any console. This is the best. Buy this if you like football. Buy this if you like videogames. Buy this if you h8 both. JUST BUY THIS!!!
