    Good Points: Great Master League


    Bad Points: Player names wrong, not enough licensing. English teams could be better and more players including young talent could be added.
    Referee is also terrible at certain decisions which would normally just be play on.


    General comments: Great game to get lost in if you start a master league.
    Its a great game to build a team and watch them win trophies.

    Just needs the database updated really and certain tweaks like crowd graphics, referee AI and new players.

    Every year in October we await a battle, the football season has barely got underway and two juggernauts come head to head competing for number one slot. No it's not Eastenders vs Corrie, rather it is a far more important and rather more enjoyable battle. It's Pro Evolution Soccer vs Fifa. For years now we have witnessed a one sided contest. The Pro Evolution Soccer (PES) series of football games has comfortably established itself as the premier football game on all formats (be it PS2, Xbox, PC ...

    I love playing this game, but I don't know the trick, and this problem has affected me mentally and physically. I don't want to play boring, direct football. Could you all please suggest the best web site which can show the joystick trick and help me play the Pro Evolution Soccer 5 PS2 game better? Please leave a comment if you can help. Thank you.

    This is probably the best football game I've ever played! I have been playing them since I was a kid, and they just keep getting better. Fantastic value for money and worth every penny, as it is a never ending game!! The only downside is that I am so tired in the morning after playing Pro Evolution Soccer 5, as I can't turn the game off once I start playing it.

    The best football game ever. Can never wait until the next one. Much better than FIFA!

    If you are into footbll then Pro Evolution Soccer 5 is the game to get. It will leave you hooked on the PS2 and is a game that you can't ever get bored on. I suggest if you have the others such as Fifa 2006 then you give this game a go. I am glad I did because in my opinion I think it is better than Fifa. Trust me on this, this is the game to get!

    Don't get me wrong, I think Pro Evolution Soccer 5 is a work of art, and an absolutely brilliant game!! But, and it is only a small one, I think Konami still haven't just quite perfected it yet.

    My reason's for this are some gameplay glitches, as you will see in my bad points, and here are the things, in my view, that Konami need to sort out the most in the next installment of PES:

    1. The through ball glitch
    2. The unlicensed leagues, teams, names, and so on
    3. And last but certainly not ...

    The godfather of football games returns then, and at a glance Pro Evolution Soccer 5 seems a lot better. It has more licences, better graphics, and more tricks then ever before. Even from the first match you play, you are likely to be shocked by the games new found fluidity. The older series titles felt very solid and rigid, moving in only 8 different directions with the d-pad, but now the game feels almost liquid to the touch; layers can now twist and turn more realistically, and this may prove ...

    After Pro Evolution Soccer 4 I thought Pro Evolution Soccer 5 was going to be the best football game of all time, but I had mixed reactions on playing it.

    I was hoping to have full branding this time, but I was disappointed to find that it's only Arsenal and Chelsea in England - maybe a bit misleading. The flip side however, is that the edit option is superb and a great improvement from PES4, so I have spent a little time customising my game, and I am more than happy.

    It's certainly sli ...

    Pro Evolution Soccer 5 just gets better and better, far more realistic than it's competitors! The new network play is brilliant too, great fun.

    Pro Evolution Soccer 5 is a humdinger of a soccer game. I really like it and it gives Fifa a hammering every time.

    I agree with some of the other reviews regarding the difficulty of this game, however I believe I have pretty much sussed it out.

    The best football simulation bar none. A definite must have game.

    I have been playing on Fifa since 2003 and it came to the time where I got bored, so it was the 1st time I have ever bought a Pro Evolution Soccer game. I wasn't sure at 1st to buy it but I decided what the hell! When I started to play on it I wasn't keen on the teams being called Man Red, Pompey. And the kits with no logos on. But it is still a great game to play when bored!

    I can't believe Pro Evolution Soccer 5 has gotten such a good user rating here. That's got to be a joke right? I'm a Pro Evo Fan, had every single game loved them all. But this one is utterly hopeless.

    You can't pass correctly, I would understand if it was just the odd pass going astray, but it's about one in three. This makes it extremely hard to keep possesion.

    It's very difficult to beat an opponent when you do finally string a few passes together, due to the fact that the speed at whi ...

    If you want a football game get Pro Evolution Soccer 5 no other footy game comes near it. Don't be a FIFA slave. Choose gameplay over graphics.

    As I watched John Terry walk out(along Mr. Henry)with perfectly recreated messy hair, combined with Amramovich's new Chelsea crest, I was giddy with anticipation.
    But within 10 seconds I noticed it's all change with Pro Evolution Soccer 5. The passing is now much better than Pro Evo 4!!!

    Pro Evolution Soccer 5 is the definitive football game and blows Fifa out of the water - to be blunt - there is no better football game available for any console and this game should be near the top of your Christmas letters to Santa.

    The player animations have been improved and they look more life like than last years game - the control system has also been tweaked and is now more satisfying than ever. With this game you have to think about every pass or tackle that you make - if you just ra ...

    I bought Pro Evolution Soccer 5 on its first day of release and I can tell you that it's a difficult game.

    I'm a stalwart of Pro Evo 2, however when my dog scratched the disk I was left with no game. So with Pro 5 coming out I thought I would advance to the newest model and try my hand.

    I was a pretty handy player with Pro Evolution Soccer 2 but I'm really struggling with number 5. It's tough, damn tough. In four games I have hit the back of the net once, and that was in the first game! So ...

    I would not recommend the PC version of Pro Evolution Soccer 5. Get the PS2 version when it comes out!
