    Overall, what PES 2018 lacks in authenticity, it more than makes up for in gameplay. Bettering its predecessor on the pitch, PES 2018 is another fantastic entry in the series.

    The new edition of PES does not offer a revolution. But you need to remember that Pro Evolution Soccer 2018 doesn't need one - it's a great sporting game that just got a little better. Ball control improvement and additions in Master League are welcome, but the small number of licenses is not (as usual). But all in all it's still a very good game.

    PES 2018 almost reaches perfection in gameplay, but its offer of licenses and game modes is still not enough for an outstanding experience overall.

    While it profits from a few small improvements that make the action on the pitch that much more intriguing, the standstill in terms of mode selection and presentation are a concern.

    A lot has gone into changing how the game is played in PES 2018. The more measured approach is wonderful, as is Real Touch+. That's why the parts that need an upgrade stick out more than they have in years.

    On the pitch, PES 2018 is almost as good as it gets. Fluid mechanics, jaw-dropping goalscoring and real precision in the controls make for thrilling matches and spinning highlight reels. Too bad the old flaws are still there – licenses are sparse and the commentary horrendous. If you can look past the errors, this is a must-buy for football fanatics.

    I came into PES 2018 ready to be won over, and converted into a PES fan. Unfortunately, I came away being disappointed.

    Great and awesome gameplay . The new difficulty of the game is the legend. It's really amazing.

    Great animations. Perfect modeling and    Great and awesome gameplay . The new difficulty of the game is the legend. It's really amazing.

    Great animations. Perfect modeling and faces. Great ball physics. Great physical collisions. Stunning graphics. But the sound design and reporter game section is very weak. Master of the League played better than last year. But still the master of the league has a lot of work and progress. Online servers have improved. You need to increase the edges of the game, and the sound design and reporter game section is really rewarding

    The lack of stadiums is still the main problem. This game requires the creation of a stadium. The biggest problem with this game is the lack of content. Master of the League must play a major change. And the sound design section of the game is quite the seventh generation. At the end of the game, there was still a big improvement over the previous year. And to summarize. This game inside the ground is a perfect winner. But not completely out of the ground .

    The creator of this game is very talented. But it suffers from a lack of funds. The main culprit of this problem is the publisher of this game, Konami. Konami does not have a good budget for this game. However, the team-maker does his best to make the game.

    PES in the gameplay, modeling, faces, animations, ball physics, physical collisions, graphics is really better than FIFA 18.    … Expand

Pes 18 de askerlikte arkadaşlarımla oynamak zorunda kaldığım, 13'ten sonra aradaki küçük pes deneyimlerini saymazsak uzun süre sonra pes'e döndüğüm oyun oldu. Bence o kadar da fena değildi.

At the beggining , first matches that you play, you have the feeling that the game is very nice, but as you progress and get more into it, you realize more cons than pro's.
    pro: good gameplay, realistic passing, shooting, scoring and that it!
    cons: horrible online, lag, few players with more that 3 stars connection rating, the defending is absolutely horrible( defenders go to far away from the attackers and the ball, goalkeepers makes stupid mistakes in key moments), My Club is a pure P2W game mode as contracts are very expensive( a strategy from konami to make people buy coins with real money), very similar to Star Wars Battlefront 2 , online divisions rating system is useless as is nowhere explained( in MY Club is realistic with 3 point per win ). As a personal conclusion , the game doesent deserve more than a 5. Konami must fix at least the defending and to cut down the contracts cost.    … Expand
