    Des évolutions a saluer par rapport a la version 2016. Les graphismes ne sont pas au rendez-vous cette année pour la version PC mais je suis sûr que Konami se rattrapera l'année prochaine. Toujours mieux que Fifa niveau sensation de jeux!

La IA es la mejor que e visto en un videojuego deportivo ya que, en dificultad estrella y leyenda, aprende de como juegas para poder marcarte con mayor facilidad. en este apartado no se comete el mismo error que FIFA ya que la IA no es insuperable ya que el truco esta en no abusar de una jugada en especifico y variar conforme la IA se adapte. El online puede llegar a ser malo si dispones de una mala conexion o si el rival tiene el mismo problema. El motor de colisiones de este año es mejor en todos los aspectos ya que las animaciones en los choques aereos no se repiten tanto como la entrega anterior. Y por ultimo los porteros, este año se tiene a los mejores arqueros de toda la saga, se puede notar la diferencia entre un portero de 75 a una de 80, eso si como no consigas un portero de garantias y el rival tenga una buena delantera y disponga de ocaciones puede acabar en goleada.… Expand

    amazing football simulator. those of you who understand football to its depth will surely enjoy it.
    great dribble system, great passing system with a nice amount of options, solid AI, and even decent goalkeepers.
    if your looking for original team logos and names, you should buy FIFA. if you like football games for the football, you should go with PES

    1. User Interface - trendy and easy to understand.
    2. player physics - if you play pes 16 you definitely spot it. player first touch, long throw, turn, fake shot. everything improve.
    3. stadium edit - add two things....net pattern and net build. some more turf pattern.
    4. player face - huge improvement, at least fake player look like human.
    5. stadium - only camp nou is new one. other 16 is same.
    6. hair style and player edit - everything is same like last year..but because of graphic improvement you found little depth in hair and beard. include some more beard styles. and i love it when i create a manager for my master league.
    7. stadium atmosphere - i found this is very similar to pes 16. nothing much change.
    8. commentary - same like a pes 16.
    9. lot's of young players with real face but some high rated players face is missing.
    10. work like a charm with affordable pc machine.
    11. lot's of new advance tactics like tiki taka, gegenpress, bus parking, touch to line, false full back, target zone.
    12. performance meter arrow and attributes colour change so it's confusing some time.

    overall this game is great and best for thirsty football fans. and if you not satisfied buy fifa... you have a 365 day.    … Expand

    Have been playing PES since PES2010, before which I used to play just Fifa series. It was the game play which switched me from FIFA to PES, so yeah I don't give a **** about graphics anyways.

    The strength of PES lies in its gameplay. If you are about graphics, stadiums, fan chants or commentary..please stick with FIFA series rather than ranting on Konami for giving us a bad game.

    The strength of PES lies in its gameplay. If you are about graphics, stadiums, fan chants or commentary..please stick with FIFA series rather than ranting on Konami for giving us a bad game. It's not bad at all on PC. The only con for me was the bad optimization on the PC version as it stutters even for good configured PCs. I have fixed them using a 3rd party software..which is the only reason I find to hate this game.It was same with PES 2016 and that's why I give it a 7/10. In terms of gameplay, this is THE BEST football game produced till today, even the critics say that and for each port including PC.

    Coming back to rant boys, didn't we all use to say that PES6 was the best and Konami should develop something similar? Now when they have actually surpassed PES6 with PES16 and now one step further with PES17 why are we complaining? This is a company which is struggling to cope up with restrained budget and EA is forever increasing its arm-twisting for licensed leagues, stadiums and teams. Still they come out each year with a beautiful game which ALWAYS plays better than Fifa. We should be actually supporting them when they need us. If PES goes dead..EA will be a monopoly with FIFA series and we might be worse off.

    Criticise where it needs criticism. Like the optimization on PC, online servers etc. Stop complaining about graphics or just buy a console or switch to FIFA series.    … Expand

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

    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.

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

    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.

    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...

    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.
