Product Description
Pro Evolution Soccer a.k.a. PES is back with a more complete sixth edition. Football fans will be delighted as this game includes many new licences (clubs and national teams). Konami has also managed to get the Orange League 1 licence! As everybody knows, it&rsquos not the licences that have made the success of PES but its incredible game play. The latter has been pushed to the max to give you even more gaming realism. Players can perform a large variety of movements (dribbles, quick free kicks, etc.) and their animations are exemplary. Pro Evolution Soccer 6 takes advantage of the Xbox Live to let you play against other players online. Of course, this Next Gen style displays sensational graphics.
Amazon.co.uk Review
In a nutshell:
The world’s most popular football sim returns with numerous tweaks and additions to make it even more realistic in both gameplay and graphics. If England don’t win the World Cup you can always take solace in the latest Pro Evo. The lowdown:
This latest sequel sees one of the biggest overhauls in the game’s history with the new improvements to the already impressive animation directly affecting the way you play. Dribbling with the ball is now easier but the quality of your passing and shooting now depends on the position of a player’s body in terms of both accuracy and power. Make a shot straight after a sharp turn, for example, and your chances of hitting the target are slim. Opponent and team artificial intelligence has also been greatly increased, to the point where every man on the pitch is thinking independently. Apart from the animation, the graphics in general have also been upgraded with much better player likenesses. Most exciting moment:
Thanks to the new changes Pro Evo 6 plays a much more attacking game than previously, with counter attacks after a fluffed shot on goal made much easier than previously. Since you ask:
Although the game doesn’t have the official FIFA World Cup license it does simulate an unofficial international tournament, including both qualifying rounds and the finals. The bottom line:
The best just keeps getting better with the most beautiful virtual game ever.

 I just love it quick to pick up impossible to put down January 11, 2008
Well I spend my life now in limbo between this gorgeoulsy looking football game with nice basic controls and just a good old kick around and Mass Effect. Granted there is room for improvement in the game but its a bit like a movie that you love because it is so easy to watch and does not ask too much of you. This is great!
Addictive, but bad for you September 26, 2007
OK the first thing is, as a lot of people have already pointed out, that there's is loads missing from other versions of this game, if you've got a PS2, buy that version and add another star.
Second thing, as each passing year the difference between the outgoing pro and new one becomes more difficult to spot. Pro 6's graphics are slightly sharper, but the game seems to run at a slower pace.
Third thing, the game AI. Pro ecourages you as a player to keep it a short passing game as much as possible, I'm sure this is the reason it is so difficult to make long passes and overhead through balls, so you adjust your tactics accordingly. But occasionally a dog kickingly frustrating bit of rubbish AI pop up out of nowhere. Defenders run away from attackers when you take control of them. The game constantly switches team members when you're trying to defend. Attackers inexpicaply slow down when trying to get to long balls. These don't happen too often, but when they do ...
Finally online, it's not bad, creating a custom match can take forever when trying to find someone to play, but the patches that have been release over the last year seem to have sorted that one out.
Should you buy it ? If you've got pro 5 on ps2, no keep your money. If you've got a 360, it's better than FIFA (If I want proper names and kits I'll buy a sticker album), so I'd say possibly, wait and see what the reviews on pro 2008 are like.
 Good but doesn't live to expectations September 3, 2007
pro evo 6 is overall pretty good for the xbox 360 however there are many places in the game where it is basically a stripped down version of the PS2 version just with better graphics. For example the edit mode is taken out nearly all together and some Master League features are taken out. However in the 360 version the physics, player movement, AI and graphics are much better and in HD.
Played it for Hours and Hours August 22, 2007
'Pro Evolution Soccer' has been my choice of football game for years now and it's because each incarnation is fun to play and very addictive. After a brief foray into the world of Fifa I realised that the handling and simulation of the beautiful game was so much better in Pro Evo. There are a few issues with the game:
Smaller size than PS2 version
Graphics not top notch
Slowdown online
However, I am able to overlook these faults due to the sheer enjoyment I have had with this game in the past year. I play this more than any other game in my collection; on my own, against my friends or online. There is no other game out there that I can switch on and have 4 blokes playing one another in seconds. I hope that some improvements to the engine and options are made for Pro Evo 2008, but this is still another classic addition to the series.
 Even worse than Fifa 07 (Xbox 360) July 15, 2007

Playing this makes me wonder why I traded up for an Xbox 360. The original Fifa 2007 was a very good game. I then bought Fifa 2007 (Xbox 360), because the original didn't work so well, and it was dreadful. This game though takes it even further. Not only do you have no teams to play with, it is also very difficult to score with 95% of shots flying over the crossbar. At this moment, there are no decent football games out for the 360. Save your money and wait for Fifa 08 or Pro Evo 7.
