    Same **** as the pc version. Don't waste money, let konami understand that they must develop a real game and not a scripted game for letting it be enjoyed by everyone, even the housewifes ;)

    Ridiculous user reviews of 10/10 from most people which is entirely misleading

    Off the pitch, as widely recognised by reviews, it is a shambles. Even ignoring licensing, the game is so poorly put together. Konami need to get some User Interface experts involved to help sort their game out. There really is no excuse in this day and age. On the pitch, the game is playable but    Ridiculous user reviews of 10/10 from most people which is entirely misleading

    Off the pitch, as widely recognised by reviews, it is a shambles. Even ignoring licensing, the game is so poorly put together. Konami need to get some User Interface experts involved to help sort their game out. There really is no excuse in this day and age.

    On the pitch, the game is playable but ultimately a simplified football game with on-rails action at times. Player switching doesn't work a lot and so your defender ends up stationary while a striker gets to the ball first. The closest player to the ball will ignore it while someone further away will make the run instead and fail to get the ball.

    Finishing feels random. The goalie will make super saves from close range diving far to their side, or the striker will narrowly miss the corner of the goal with their shot.

    They have retained the ridiculous back-heels where a player will back-heel the ball at a speed just faster than the player chasing it. It then gets to the next player and he back-heels it at the same speed to the next player again chased by a player who can't change his pace in any way to collect the ball.

    Lots of little flicks and tricks, none of which are the user pressing anything special to do them. The game just makes it look good, which is maybe why it gets glowing reviews from magazine reviewers who sound like they're new to football - "Wow, I just crossed the ball doing a rabona and it did an overhead kick - all I did was press cross and shoot!".

    The "It's on the pitch that matters" is the most repeated mantra of PES players. I played the Fifa 19 Beta and even if you ignore licensing, commentary, graphics, audio, menus, it feels far better to play than PES.

    Get ready to trade this in once Fifa comes out. Of course, I am paid by EA!!

    PES is good but Fifa is better. I'll always play the game that is most fun to play.    … Expand

    Nothing changed in league mode. NOTHING.

    The gameplay of the bots is terrible: extending through the flank — cross — header shot. No difference who plays against you: PSG or Spal. All the same.

    I can not update the roasters and play MyClub - it does not connect to the servers.

    Super terrible game.

    The gameplay is great(when human controlled), but everything else is simply awful. The off the pitch side of things.. well this game is a disaster. The AI especially is some of the worst ive ever seen in a major release. So basically(and especially on higher difficulties) every team plays the same way regardless of their actual rating/type of players and irl play style ie every team playsThe gameplay is great(when human controlled), but everything else is simply awful.

So basically(and especially on higher difficulties) every team plays the same way regardless of their actual rating/type of players and irl play style ie every team plays like Tika-Taka Barcelona circa 2009. They coooonstantly abuse the wings with low-cross spam-tap in goals(even when 1 on 1 the CPU will turn around n play to the wings for that low-cross!), the AI wont take long shots outside the box, goalkeepers stay glued to their line in 1 on 1s making super easy to score etc etc.. every game plays out this way. Tbh the god awful AI will ruin this game n makes it unplayable, and ensures that despite the great gameplay.. imo PES 2019 will not be fondly remembered. I cant see Konami patching this out/changing it either. Its hard coded into the game. Its not a bug. This is it. So Master League which already was a outdated, barren mess, is a complete non-starter for me now.

    And speaking of Master League mode: Only two leagues in the game have 2nd divsions, making every other league a waste of time and repetitive as hell as there is no promotion & relegation, the transfer market in Master League is still a joke and broken af!(i mean top teams will sell their best players like its nothing, often infact they'll say so many players that they'll then have not enough players to actually start games!). Did anyone at Konami even play-test this game!, Like wtf!. Simply put, tldr... This game is a rushed, lazy, outdated, barren, half-assed piece of crap with no real substance. AVOID AT ALL COSTS, DO NOT BUY IT!!.    … Expand

    Handicap y script hace el juego ridiculo de jugar. No hay ligas completas ni buen juego en línea, es solo bueno para jugar localmente, por ello no hay diferencia entre comprar el juego o jugar solo el demo. No vale la pena comprarlo.

    All i found playing this game was manipulation (some players call it Handcap). The game just won let you score if it feel like it. Dont waste your money buyng this poor game. You have better options if you want a game that you dont win buy playing well, but the mechanism decides what happens...

    Мало того, что каждый год трясут по 60+ баксов, так и еще с выходом демо версии следующего года как в данном случае 20 не обновлюят составы... ЗА ЛЕТНИЕ ТРАНСФЕРЫ КУЧА ПЕРЕХОДОВ, в игре их нет. Разботчикам не до этого, они только рекламируют пес 20... :(Мало того, что каждый год трясут по 60+ баксов, так и еще с выходом демо версии следующего года как в данном случае 20 не обновлюят составы...

    The passes in the game are the movements of the players, the artificial intelligence is incredibly bad. When I play the game, only my nerves break down. It is a very very bad game that I do not enjoy. The worst football game I have played in my life.

    Great new animations, magical moments, improved pass/receiving mechanics, and a lot more, makes for another great year of PES. It could have had more league licenses though.

    Almost perfect gameplay makes PES 2019 the best football simulation ever, but due to stagnation in terms of available modes and the usual scarcity of licences it’s “merely” a good game. [11/2018, p.82]
