    This game is awesome... Adaptive AI it is the game charger for sports games.
    I also love the Champions League, Argentinean, Chilean and Brazilian licenses.

    Good job Konami!

    Graphics wise its great up-close but not so much far away. The scoring is a joke, you can score from anywhere with the right player. The stadiums look fantastic and the ball physics ia great. The celebrations are limited and the commentary is wack.
    Overall its better than PES 16 but still not there yet as the best soccer sim.
    No need for me to mention licenses as one can add option

    No need for me to mention licenses as one can add option files now, its worth a go at least until FIFA 17 releases

    The best PES of the last 10 years

    Pro:

    - Amazing IA of teammates and rivals
    - Better Graphics
    - Player ID (Most famous players got their unique moves)
    - Online/Offline modes
    - Edition

    Cons:

    - Licenses, but with an OF its solved in 10 minutes

    If you are a football/soccer fan, you will love this game

    Feels Extremely unrealistic, yo can score pretty much from everywhere in any situation, i scored every shot with Luis Suarez, even scoring with my back to the goal and being outside the box. The game has improved in the graphics department nonetheless, i had friends that told me that PES 2016 looked amazing, no it didn't it looked amazing, it looked really bad, period, but this PES looksFeels Extremely unrealistic, yo can score pretty much from everywhere in any situation, i scored every shot with Luis Suarez, even scoring with my back to the goal and being outside the box. The game has improved in the graphics department nonetheless, i had friends that told me that PES 2016 looked amazing, no it didn't it looked amazing, it looked really bad, period, but this PES looks way better graphically than last years. One last thing, online modes are really bad, connection wise i think, i cant point my finger at what it is, but the game feels totally different while playing online, when doing a pass, shooting, lobbing it takes a little bit more than usual and this can be really frustrating, you have to adjust your timing when playing online. If something gets changed, but i don't think so, ill update my score, for now im not that happy with my purchase. Expand

    PES 2017 is another step in the right direction. Konami thus capitalizes further on their strong formula. While not everything is perfect, the core gameplay is really on point: a real joy for lovers of football games.

    Still the best football game around, and somehow ever better than last year's edition. One for true football fan's only though. Those looking for a more arcadey version of football will still enjoy Fifa much more.

    Outside the football field, things may not be quite ideal in PES 2017 however, going back inside, we guarantee you a football experience of utmost brilliance.

    If you can look past the usual scarcity of licenses (e.g. just two English clubs are licensed), you’ll see a great game – unpredictable, spectacular, deep, satisfying and engaging. It just needs time to show its advantages, because they might not be instantly obvious when you pick up a controller for a moment at a party. [12/2016, p.66]

    Strange refereeing aside, none of those issues are more than oddities and PES 2017 is a wonderful football game that just begs to be played. Give me another 200 hours and I'll tell you definitively how PES 2017 ranks against the series' best, but right now I'm enjoying it an awful lot. Fun yet unfair, thrilling yet at times borderline broken, but it just wouldn't be PES if it was perfect.
