10 out 10 ? I doubt it but it probably is ONE of the best football games around IF they fixed all the niggles I experienced with PES 3 and hopefully they played a bit of ISS 98 on the N64 for inspiration! I might be getting a PS2 for this cos PES 4 and 'cube multiplayer goodness is very tempting.. hmm.
Just got it this morning.
From first impressions i prefer PES3.
But i thought the same when first got PES3, so i'll give it a bit more time.

Thought I'd post a trick list for those new to the game and also for those who didn't know about the new tricks added to the game. Took a few of them from the various pro evo sites around - Hope some of you find it helpful.
Dribbling
Slow close control dribble: Hold L1 to perform this dribble technique, good for tight situations.
Medium dribble: Hold R2 to perform a quicker dribble
Sprint: Hold R1 to sprint with the ball, makes it easier of opponent to tackle you though.
Full Sprint: When performing the sprint dribble if you double tap the direction you are running your player will knock the ball ahead to run onto, can also do this while turning, hold R1 and press the direction you wish to run and press R2 as you turn to knock the ball on for you to run onto.
Skills
Lollipop: Double tap L1 while dribbling to perform a whole load of step overs.
single Step Over: Tapping R2 while dribbling will perform a single step over.
Shimmy: While dribbling with R2 press the direction to the side which will take you at right angles to the way you are running.
Carlos style 'Roll Back': While you perform the shimmy press the direction directly behind the player, your player will then put his foot on the ball and begin rolling it backwards under their foot.
Zidane 360 spin: Rotate the right analouge stick 360 degrees to perform the spin, player has to be good at dribbling to perform this well!
Dummy Shot: When shooting press square and then press X quickly after or while you are still holding square to perform the dummy shot, usually lets you trick defenders to get a bit more room for a shot in.
Flick up: Flick the right analouge stick down then up to perform a flick, can be useful if you learn how to lift it over a defender and run onto it.
Dummy Cross: Run down the wing using R2 and when you wish to perform the dummy cross let go of the direction you are pressing but continue to hold R2. The player will pretend to cross but dummy and stop and face the defender, allows you to get more room to cross or to continue your run.
Stop and Go: Release the direction you are running and tap or hold down R2, your player will stop dead.
Feint: hold R2 to stop the ball and then tap either up or down, your player will feint one way and put the defender off balance.
Put ball into space: while standing still tap L1 and R1 together quickly to knock the ball away from your feet and into space ready for a shot.
Shooting
Chip Shot: Hold L1 and press square to shot to try and loft the ball over the keeper into the goal.
Shallow Chip: Press R1 after pressing shoot and the ball will dink rather than going high into the air.
Other things to Note
Through ball: Triangle will play a through ball along the ground to a player in space or into an attacking position. Holding L1 as you press triangle will play a through ball through the air, perfect for playing the ball over defenders for strikers to run onto.
One-Two: A grounded one two is performed by pressing L1+ cross and then triangle to return the ball. A high one two is performed by pressing L1+cross and then cross to return the ball.

Played it today, kicked my master-Pro-Evo-boy-brother's ass (well, won on penalties ;-)). Either way, I won, which is all that matters. So I love it. :-D
Can't wait for the XBox version, mind.
