Well, is clear that EVERY game has always some point that needs to be better, indeed all can be better. Is not my intention to defend EA, more when im a really PES fan during last years(this year very, very dissapointed) until FIFA 07 for 360 comes.
So, in the other hand, PES6 for 360, you have 8 stadiums, no Bundesliga (i dont know what thinks the german mates about this), not editor, 1 only licensed team from Premiership, 1 licensed team from Bundesliga, old and catoonish clipling graphics (indeed is a port, not a really 360 game), not new reshooted movements, and the same gameplay as WE10 (game that i played during months and months). A few licensed national teams, if i remember well, Argentina, Holland, Spain, Chech Rep., and a couple more, instead of the big list of national teams from Fifa 07.
World cup tournament??, yes, there´s is not an International Cup option in FIFA 07 if you want call the things by his name,,,,,but i preferd this instead of all the bugs, false promises, and all the bigs LACKS (8 stadiums only, my god....a 30 teams worldcup played in 8 stadiums??? hehehe....) from Konami. So the Manager mode is very well done, you can play of a more realistic way, increasing the values of each players, making transfers, etc, etc....or do it simply arcade and making it like Season mode, just put all in automatic.
About the sounds, yes, sometimes they go lower when you make a substitution, but if you preferd to hear that weird ball sound each time that you touch the ball in PES6, well,,,,is your option. And about the IA, well, i really didnt see any problem, may be you should to put more it more difficult, i mean, World class, or something like this, and you will see how works this great IA. Im tired of to see how Zambrota runs the side when Messi has the ball for to make a cross pass, or simply return back, im tired of to see how Eto´o or Ronaldhinho are always traying to dismark from his defender, looking for spaces, etc, etc,etc,,,,So, if this is not a good IA,,,,well, i dont know.
Finally, about names.....well....BlueLondon F.C.?? Chamartin??? Catalonia?? BrickStadium???.....ahem...
The Only thing that im really agree is about that rain/snow should be present on the game. But i preferd dont have it than to have it in a poor 360 game, like is PES6.
May be im so much critic with PES6, but it deserves it. When i saw all that images from FIFA 07 on 360, i though...."pfff...pure photoshop", then i saw the videos and the movements, i thought..."hmmmm...something is wrong??"... and after play the demo, i eated all my words with potatoes and i went to the shop to buy it, and retail version is much better in all aspects. When i saw the first images from PES6 i thought the same "pfff....pure Adriano high poly renders with a lot of photoshop"....i was right....when i saw a few videos from the game....i thought "hmmm....it seems the same game that WE10, may be more smooth but is the same"....i was right, not reshooted movements. So may be to put a demo from PES6 for 360 will be a great option for to dont waste your money....but i think that they preferd dont to put it (and if i was Konami, i did not put it too....u know), and that people feels for himselfs how bad looks all, not enought options, not editor, excent of important Leagues, with this annoying flags on the national teams not licenced, etc....etc....all with a nice rain or snow falling in one of the 8 stadiums and in the heads of this kind of 2D sprites crowd.
Take care
