A little look back to help look forward. PES2012 is quite possibly bipolar. Konami’s latest is a game which can inspire elation and frustration in equal measure yet has a nasty habit of the player seldom experiencing both emotions in one individual match – let alone one sitting – as your understanding evolves (pun intended) [...]
A look at the different statistics and trends you can gain from the often underused Track Record option. While the sport is not really an exact science, there has been a meteoric rise in the use, and popularity, of stats in football. From how many passes Xavi does in a particular match to the amount of [...]
After putting many hours into playing PES2012 I have come to the conclusion that it is no FIFA, nor is it a PES2011. After reaching this conclusion I realised I was both very happy indeed that this was the case, as well as appreciating in full that I am a pretty damned observant individual. When [...]

Less of a trailer and more of a filmed mission statement, Konami’s debut video for PES2012 is a hefty 7min 46secs filled with Creative Producer Seabass’ philosophy for the game moving forward towards it’s release and is not shy – or that shy – in showing the game running at this early stage.

It has been a few weeks since Nintendo’s Satoru Iwata’s interview with PES’ silent maestro Shinji Enomoto, in which the focus was primarily to discuss the franchises debut on Ninty’s new 3D enabled handheld, yet entered into territory which sparked interest and discussion amongst series fans. An excerpt from the Enomoto interview : Iwata: In [...]
Anyone picked up PSM3 this month? Well, there is an interview with EA’s Gary Paterson which has inspired this latest wee editorial from yours truly. Funny thing is, it wasn’t the insight from my fellow Scotsman that has me writing this, but more so something the interviewer noted during Gary’s reply to the question about [...]
After an eventful 2010 in the world of PES, I think it is time to reflect as a means to look forward to what I am sure will prove to be an equally eventful 2011 and a year that could prove to be a landmark for the franchise. Before going any further allow me to [...]
