Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 - all formats

Pro Evolution Soccer 2008
Available on PS3, XBox 360, PS2, PSP, PC and Nintendo DS from October 19th 2007 (Wii version in 2008)



Apart from the fact we are going to be having some sh*t hot forum competitions on this machine - and combined with PS3 Home you can all come around to my 'House' to play it here are some of the features of the new game:

- A new adaptive AI system entitled 'Teamvision' will be implemented into the game, Teamvision is a sophisticated AI programming that learns and adapts according to an individual's style of play. As such, it will learn new ways to build attacks and to counter specific movements and previous attacking or defensive errors

- Facial Import feature utilizing the Xbox 360 Vision Camera/USB Webcam to import your "face" onto players faces in the game.

- It is confirmed that Jon Champion and Mark Lawrenson are going to replace Peter Brackley and Trevor Brooking as commentators. (Hmmm...)

- The diving facility has been confirmed for the new title, but more often than not a yellow card will be issued for using this function. (Handy for Chelsea fans)

Release date October 19th 2007 - a few days before I hit a very sad milestone in my life.

I don't think the reds are licensed for the game.

£50,000 PS3 Tournament

After the forum tournament the next best tourney will be the one where you can win £50,000.  It is being organised by Play.com and you can only enter the tournament if you have bought your copy via them. The tournament will be in December.

You can pre-order from them here
£10 saving on RRP for PS3 and XBox 360 versions - £12 saving on PC version - £5 saving on PSP, PS2 and DS versions

Wish oh wish I had a PS3.

Never win the 50 grand either. I play on 5 stars but some people see it as a way of life....

Will probably get it on PC.

Is it only me that thinks that's a little spooky?

I know what you mean. A few months later for me too. Sad reaching your mid twenties isn't it mate....

Sounds like a quality investment this though.
You's should put a thread up with a league for the forum (if people will play each other) so we can see who's kicking who's arse! 

John Champion is the commentator? Oh gawd I can't stand his voice! Still going to pre-order it though!
So you can dive on the game? I swear to Dod that the computer better not dive against me, it would drive me crazy, but at the same time would be quite funny!

Oh gawd imagine all the online users diving against each other, I can see this cocking up somewhere!

Lucky it's only facial import. If it had been arse or beer gut import it could have been the most hilarious football game ever.

I'd imagine we'd be able to knock through a tournament in one night depending on the number of player - a cup tournament or something. I've never actually played ANY football game online so I am really looking forward to it.

Good luck then! I use to play PES6 online when I had the time. It was on the PS2 and all I got when I scored was messages of abuse! Trust me some people spend their lives playing PES online, they are so good its unreal.. but again they play the most boring football. They play a through ball up the wings and then cut it back for an easy tap in.. as soon as they score against me they start calling me crap etc etc..

Some people are really rude these days, I wouldn't look forward to playing it online if I was you. And make sure you have a quick connection otherwise you'll get terrible lag.

still ages away it seems but like most people definantly counting down the days!!

Look like i'll be getting ot from Play.com then for a chance of that 50K (like I have any chance!)

Do you think Sony will have an update in the Sony Store (like you could get on PES06) where all the names/kit/etc etc are all corrected?

Do you think on this one the commentary will actually be relevant to what's happening on the pitch?

Probably not on the official Sony store. There will be an unofficial patch and we will post it in here and you can use a memory stick (or even access the forum via your PS3) and happy days.


Hey - maybe we will be able to send each other's player faces to each other.  Ha!

Good post.  Pity the actual game was as boring as a Chelsea match.  Looks good - Youtube doesn't do it justice but like the little managers bench thing for a kick off!

my mate has a Elite and has said the Pro Evo demo is out on xbox live, any thoughts compared to the fifa demo??

Pro Evo demo supposed to be on PS Stores this Thursday - a day before FIFA comes out!

brilliant John Champion is my favourite commentater, i hated the old Pro Evo commenty it was soo boring, i think there are many licenced premiership clubs this year, so far newcastle and Spurs are confirmed premiership clubs

any news if the pro evo demo is on the PS store today? I check before I came to work but nothing was updated at that point!!

Still no demo on the PS3!!!!!!!! nightmare!!!!

Right then people, This is out on Friday, I'm sure i'm not gonna be the only one getting this so who else is gonna get it?

This Friday. I will think about it.

Why have none of the shops got this in.  Tried Woolies, Argos and Comet and just about to head off to Tesco.  Will be furious if I can't get it today.

Indeed none in Tesco - none in Asda.
