In my 100+ hours of playing the game, the first 5 hours was the most brutal. The learning curve of playing PES 2011 is a steep one, and something that will require great patience. Playing this years game the same as PES 2010, or any before it, will result in complete failure, as PES 2011 [...]

As we await yet further details of what is shaping up to be a return to form for PES, I am seriously beginning to think Seabass and the main development team knew exactly what they wanted all along from next-gen PES. With PES being a franchise that demands a new title every year, and let’s [...]

When Konami announced back in April that the Copa Libertadores would be featuring in PES2011 it was probably the first ‘hard’ news we got about this years offering. However, like so many things regarding the PES franchise, there was an element of doubt present regards such an acquisition. Doubts that have been quelled somewhat if [...]

After the bombardment of PES2011 gameplay impressions, video and screens which I’m sure got us all that more familiar with this years instalment of the PES franchise, it seems perhaps a good time to shift some focus on one of the few features of the game we are yet to get a great deal of [...]

Many thanks to a well known and great friend of WENB, Cannigia of AllsvenskanPES, for this touching piece on a man perhaps unknown to many but without doubt a key figure in not only the Konami football titles he produced but perhaps the genre as a whole. This individual was Mr. Katsuya Nagae, who passed [...]

It’s been a cracking few days. Back from a short break, only to see a marvelous video from Dan @ PSM3, showing PES 2011 as Seabass intended. Konami in another ‘not showing the game off the best way’ shocker. That tour video was great as a show and tell for new press access, but Dan [...]

Good god I am loving creating these little tag lines! All inspired by Konami’s recent efforts of course, which me brings on to the subject of today’s full announcement trailer for PES2011. A lot for us to get our teeth into so after the small jump (or huge leap as it is in PES’ case) [...]

…Yet some pictures can tell a thousand stories. Forgive the optimism here folks, but PES2011′s first render screen has ones imagination running amok somewhat. Never before in recent memory has a simple piece of artistic rendering suggested so much beyond the beauty of the image itself. Stick with me on this one after the jump.

There are many ways in which fans of football games wish to see the sport fully realized whether it be animations, ebb and flow of play, and even TV broadcast authenticity. However I can’t help feel that one vital component that would help further authenticate – or simulate – the experience further often goes unmentioned. [...]

It’s a year when the PES community will see a stream of people come back, and where interest will once again be super high for a PES game. It’s more than wavered over the past few years, and rightly so. With the drop in form many fans have fled to rival camps, and turned their [...]
