This thread has been linked to the game 'Pro evolution soccer 2'.
Picked up an early copy in my local games shop, pretty much played it throughout the day - here are my impressions:
Pros:
- There's a little more freedom to shoot than before.
- The Master league mode lasts for ages now with the 3rd division, and with the oppurtunity to use transfers etc.
- The training mode is a lot more involving, i particulaly like the Umbro challenge which is very challenging indeed.
- The commentary (although still not impressive) is at least reasonable, and Peter Brackley and Trevor Brooking are more familiar voices than the old pair.
- The stadiums are sound, as are the crowd.
- The gameplay is much faster and more fluid.
Cons:
- It's still so damn frustrating.
- Its getting a bit too easy to score.
- All the dodgy Master League names means its a booger working out who you're playing.
- All of the games seem to take place in 5 of the 14 available stadiums.
- Plagued by lack of major new feature.
Don't get me wrong, i'm enjoying the game, i just feel disappointed to a certain extent. Still, it's had me playing all day so that says something i suppose.
