    Pro Evolution Soccer is back with another great entry. Soccer fans, you should this game.
  2. eFootball PES 2020 is a well polished football simulation. I said simulation, because gameplay is much more slow and tactical. After playing years of FIFA, PES 2020 feels like a real change in a good way.

    It is a pity that these great mechanics are not underpinned by better modes.

    Grittier and more convincing than ever, Konami's soccer juggernaut excels on the pitch but barely tries off it.

    The overwhelming impression I got playing both games this year is that they’re just tired. Both series are in need of a fresh shot of adrenaline (and a fresh coat of paint), and they were never going to get it in 2019, in the twilight of the sixth console generation. We can only hope that this year’s stagnation is just a result of something bigger and better coming along next year.

The gameplay is just slow and frustrating in most of circumstances. Players are not responsive and sometimes add some unexpected animations/movements that slow down their actions. Often, after selection, they sprint in a different direction than the one indicated by the joypad. Many other examples I could make.... It is not even fun when I win!!!! Been a PES player for around 10 years, I am forced to switch to FIFA. At least, I get a good simulation, not just a wannabe. Full Review »
