"Can PES series be made perfect."

I have been a big fan of the PES series for a long time, even the version on the SNES was a fantastic simulation of football. I am very impressed with he most recent version on the PS2 but I think that now Konami have got the gameplay at such a playable and entertaining standard, streets a head of the more shallow FIFA series, that perhaps they should now improve the other aspects of the game to make it a more immersive experience.

A few things that I would love to see in the next version include the following;

1. QUICK FREE KICKS
I think there should be no cuts during the match ie when the ball goes out for a throw in or freekick someone should run over and the camera should pan around behind the player ready for the set piece and a ballboy or another player should pass the ball to the kicker. This would allow quick free kicks to be taken and allow the player to sometimes try and catch the defense off guard before a complete wall is made. I have seen this feature in previous football games, i even think one of the ISS games featured it.

2. REFEREES AND LINESMEN
I want to see the ref trip over player be hit by the ball and run around backwards, I want see them point at the penalty spot and look at their watch towards the end of the match, surely it can't be that difficult o have three more people animated during the play.

3. MANAGERS AND RESERVES
When u use the tactic changes during play, i want to see he manager jump up and come to the touchline and wave his arms about, i want to see reserves warming up on the touchline ready for that crucial sub in the second half. Why not have them running up and down in tracksuits. Some of the football games on the Amiga had this feature.

These are just trimmings but I feel that they would serve to greater immerse the player in the experience, I know I would never look at another football game again if PES introduced some little extras like this. I have seen these features scattered around games on older platforms why can we not see them on todays powerfull machines.

The players DO have different boots if you look carefully...but you may have a point about the hand ball bit

In fact you can!

You just have to position your player correctly and he can do from a simple tap volley to a full on overhead screamer.
