    This is literally Konami middle finger for PC gamers saying we don't give a f#$# about you for the third year in a row... it's actually PS3 port and I'm saying a PS3 port because my Xbox 360 controller won't even work......pass give FIFA 17 a go at least you don't need to mod the game to get real club names!

    Konami is beyond a joke now. Will never buy anymore Konami games on PC. F*** off Konami. And they have the balls to put Denuvo on this. Spend the money making the game better and people will come back naturally.

    Another terrible port from Konami. The lazy morons over at Konami couldn't even port it from the PS4 or Xbox One versions, they had to port it from the PS3/360. Konami proving once again that they don't care about PC gamers.

    The only improvement i see in this game from last version is the gameplay. In general:

    Less stadiums than console versions (yes, you read it right. They keep a lot of stadiums exclusive to new consoles); Poor graphics compared to ps4 or Xbox one (even the crowd in PES 2006 look better, for example); Less licenses, no Libertadores, no Sulamericana, no Real Madrid (generic), no Bayern

    They say gameplay has been improved, i must agree. It is better and enjoyable compared to PES 2016 ( i didn't enjoy PES 2016) but if i only cared about gameplay i would play PES 2006! I'm not a fan of FIFA but since in my region both games cost almost the same choosing FIFA seems the right choice, at least it offers great graphics with good gameplay). Last football game i played so much was PES 2013 (I played all PES and FIFA games since then and didn't like them) but this year FIFA caught my attention. If i owned a PS4 i would go PES for sure, but i own a strong PC, i worked hard to build my rig so i demand games to use full potential of the hardware, not games that i can throw away my video card and still be able to play them in 200 fps. Seriously KONAMI, why you hate pc community so much? Do you find yourself forced to release pc version of PES? Either stop making these **** ports or never make a PC version again. Stop treating us like garbage.

    How could you even dare to release PES 17? It is exactly like 14-15-16. It has nothing changed during the last 3 years. I have always been playing with PES until now, and I have always trusted in Konami and in its quality, and I hoped that something great will be in 17, but nothing. This is a huge pile of junk. It just deteriorates my computer and my eyes too. Big zero. Dear Konami I hopeHow could you even dare to release PES 17? It is exactly like 14-15-16. It has nothing changed during the last 3 years.

It was really not cool against PC users, but I also tried on Xbox One and the game is junk on that too.

    Putting graphical eye candy and fancy animations to one side, on first appearances, PES 2017 seems like a further enhancement of the series, and many ways it is.

After a couple of dozen hours with the game however, gameplay becomes very dry, repetitive, and frustrating. Konami have tilted the AI far too heavily in the favour of the defense, which makes carving out chances in an evenly matched game a bit of an exercise in attrition. In the final analysis, the gameplay is dull as ditchwater. It gets only a 5/10 cos 2016 was so much better. They have made it worse....as for online, I hear it is a train wreck once again, but I wouldn't know how it is. I have not been able to successfully connect to an opponent even one time. Expand

    This game is a solid proof that PES series died right after PES 6. What's more, graphics are worse than console versions. I don't know what they are trying to do but i'm sure they already lost a lot of old hardcore PES fans with these stupid moves. They (company) don't respect their own work, so people shouldn't expect respect from this company. At least they could make graphics properly...

Every single player has a rocket hidden in their legs. If you are pulled, when you press shoot, player will go into perfect animation, shoot from a standing position with ease. Everything is this game is super easy to do. and absurdly arcady.

    This game is still in super early alpha. Its terrible.

    Compared with FIFA 17 on PC this game is a joke, graphics and animations are one big **** the only plus is a pretty fun ball physics, nothing more. No license for popular leagues is unacceptable.

    This game is a piece of crap. 2016 is much better. Defensive skills of the players are just 1000 times more over emphasised than it should be.

Defensive skills of the players are just 1000 times more over emphasised than it should be. They just sprint at with full speed you and take the ball away immediately and never miss. This is so unrealistic. Apparently the game designers have never ever played soccer in real life, because it is just impossible to tackle someone while sprinting especially when the player who is holding on to the ball is changing directions. Here in PES this is no problem. Not to mention that the attacking players turns so slow that they have no chance avoiding contact with the defender sprinting on them. So even if the defender fails to take away the ball somehow, it will push the attacker away from the ball with his body. Okay football is a contact sport but not this much, and you don't see players colliding in a real match as frequently as in this game. They just collidie and fall onto the ground all the time, rediculous really. That's why everyone playes defend and counter online, they just park the bus, so it is impossible to score against them, and then fire a long ball to their one or two forwards who is running 1:1 to a defender and scores. You just simply cant prevail online with attacking football, almost every f***ing goal is from a counter and KONAMI adverts his game with tiki-taka and Barcelona. JOKE ! My score is a big zero.

    PES has never change since PES 2009.
    The user interface, the commentary, the gameplay mechanism, the animation, the models, all were the same back in 2009 just with more database up to date.
    It is unrealistic football game, and it's from Konami so don't buy it or you'll regret.
    Just buy FIFA 17 instead.

    PES 2017 is an invitation to the best virtual soccer you've seen in years, if you're willing to overlook the lack of official licenses and some annoying technical glitches.

    The PC version of Pro Evo stayed way behind the console editions and obviously exists only to squeeze some cash out of fans. Don’t buy it – either try FIFA 17 or keep playing PES 2016. It seems we need to wait until Pro Evo PC’s corpse decays completely and turns to dust to see it thoroughly overhauled. [12/2016, p.67]

    The changes in gameplay are welcome and the super-defenders need a bit more effort to beat, but overall the changes are minimal. We have again the same "last-gen" version of Fox Engine, while the console counterparts enjoy upgraded visuals. With this installment of PES, KONAMI makes a clear statement that it doesn't care about the PC community.
