Has anyone got to division 1 in Extreme mode? i tried it
> and found it too hard so started i on hard.
Yup, done it a month back.
The first season is the hardest. I'd suggest that you buy one striker who has good accuracy, power and heading. DC.deane from eternal england is a good one for the first season. He aint very fast, but he doesnt miss much.
Was proper easy in the first division as by then i had a perfect master league team anyway. Gordan banks, Maradona, Rivaldo, Crespo, Half of the Beloved Brazil team :D, plus loads others.
Kit:
Home- White shirt, blue sholder to arm pit stripes.
Blue shorts, white trim with blue adidas stripes.
Blue socks, white pin stripe.
Away- Green shirt, one blue arm, one yellow arm.
Blue shorts, green trim with yellow adidas stripes.
Green and blue hooped socks.
Formation:
442

That's it I think.
I got Del Piero a couple of weeks after though, so I'm quite happy.

I used to use Olisadebe, but he wouldn't renew his contract so I now use Recoba, who I bought for no reason really. I'm trying to get Larsson; I'll either use him to replace Recoba, and use Recoba in place of Fidaga, or use Larsson in place of Fidaga. I should be getting him on loan, so I just have to see what works.

Have all the starting defenders such as Valery and Stromer.
MIDFIELDERS:
Victor is the only one I've bought yet, so I still use Miranda and co.
FORWARDS:
Vieri

Only bought those 2, so I still play Castello.
I'm on the verge of buying Henry, so let's hope that deal goes through.

I am playing on the hard setting and am in division one. Although after i have unlocked all the 33 classic players i will start again in Extreme Mode. Has anyone got to division 1 in Extreme mode? i tried it and found it too hard so started i on hard.

Yeah, I'm going to e-mail Konami about the 5 or 6 changes that I'd like to be made in Pro Evo 3, this being one of them. No referee of linesman can be seen when the ball is in play, which is a little disappointing - you still see them in the cutscenes though, although they really do need to be viewable in the actual match - all the other games can handle it.

Pass, a lot. It helps - don't stay in your own half though, because the total amount of points will be a lot less. If you're passing around in your opponents box (which can be very tricky, admittedly) then you're guarenteed a high score. Also, play long balls across the park, and play headed passes, because that can get you a higher overall score too.

PES2 is going to the other consoles - in Febuary to be exact.
I really do :)
I have been reading lots about WE: FE on a few of the Pro Evo fan forums and apparently it's everything that PES2 should have been and more.
· Much more realistic gameplay (as opposed to the arcade
feel of PES2)
· Updated transfers for all teams (Ronaldo @ Real M for example)
· Better kit editor and more realistic kits included
· New collision detection engine so 'going though' a player to
get the ball is no longer an option. This also means you can
now ‘shepard’ the ball out of play but blocking off the path
of an attacking player, without them going through you to get
the ball.
· When you tussle with a player on the opposing team, the
speed of both players is reduced as they fight for the ball.
· The differential between fast players (strikers) and slow
players (defenders) is now more realistic. This means that if
Owen breaks into open space, there is no chance that someone
like Gary Neville is going to catch him, like it does in PES2.
· Strikers and midfield players no longer have inflated stats,
thus making the game far more balance.
· Much, much better animation
· Lots of new animations, like team mates turning to applaud
a player after a good shot goes just wide.
The list goes on and one, it sounds good. Really think this could be the ultimate PES/WE game until Winning Eleven 7 hits the streets next May.
Just wondered if anyone else was getting it?
Its most certainly likely to come out on PS2 aswell though, with the fan base of the Pro Evo series mainly based on the Sony console, you can hardly see Konami willing to give up on that.
