well after a long time poking and proding my ps2 which now has lumps of blue tack all over it holding the various parts back to fool it into thinking the lid is shut , i finally got winning eleven 10 ( pro evo 6) working . this is a very early review as ive only had 4 games .
But on first impressions i think they ve cracked it , its about as good a footy game as you could have hoped for it looks much better,a lot more 3D the players are smother and react more realisticly .
gone are the dodgy first touches & constant free kicks ,the buttons are much more responsive ie before if you headed the ball straight above you and pressed X he would take a few seconds to let the ball drop then pass it but now depending on the height he will head it again or even try a chest pass . so when a player chests down a cross to volly you have to time your shot with the ball other wise he ll stretch for it and mess it up .
shooting if your player is off balance or turning the shot will end up in row z .but first time shots are improved .
through balls are back !!!!!! the through ball button actually plays a proper through ball it doesnt just kick it past the player .the joy of Artetta playing the perfect slide rule pass the johnson who then leaves the defence for dead with his pace and cracks it in the bottom corner :D
the fans now cheer ie for chelsea they sing jose morinino or come on chelsea etc etc .
my version is patched so it has all the real names kits sponsers etc .
it will take time for all the annoying features to come out but at the moment its a lot better than any of the earlier versions allmost the perfect footy game , allthough im slightly concerned about how easy it is to score and the lack of free kicks ( its ok to have a free flowing game but when duffer rounds the keeper and he just trips you with his hand and the ref waves play on it gets annoying)
im thinking of getting an xbox 360 now purely for pro evo 6 .
