    Konkurencja z Fifa nigdy nie jest łatwa. W tym przypadku wręcz niemożliwa. PES co roku ma pewne szanse i je nie wykorzystuje. Kiedy w starych częściach(2004) przez wielu graczy był uważany za lepszego od Fify, teraz jest całkowitym gniotem. Konami w ogóle nie myśli o grafice. Animacje, twarze postaci, ogólnie grafika wyglądają fatalnie. Gra jest strasznie zbugowana, niedopracowana. Pomimo wana. Pomimo paru pomysłów których nie ma w fifie brakuje tu czegoś co by miało nas do niego przyciągnąć. Pomimo tego że gra się w miarę przyjemnie, o wiele fajniej gra się w klasyczną Fife. Mam nadzieję że za rok twórcy pokażą na co ich stać i wreszcie zbiją z tronu fife, w tym roku jednak im się to nie udało. Moja ocena 6/10… Expand

    The TWO Different AI ruine this game so much playing Become a legend with or against Messi is just not the same and it stinks cause you have the feeling you always have to do everything in the team because of this AI against cheated cpu AI.
    When you have Messi in your team and he can't score a goal in ten games you know there is something wrong with the AI the same for Ronaldo !
    Every    times he got a ball he doesn't give it and lose it so i had to decide to quit the team because of him … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Disclaimer: I haven't played this game, but I will on the basis of the fact that I am a human and made of particles and all ya'll hater what up. My point is, haters gonna hate. And word to the devs of this game: ya'll are doin it right. Word to EA and all that: ya'll doing it wrong. I'd like to respond to some criticisms of this game, albeit without HAVING PLAYED IT. Here's the deal everyone who hates is a hater. That's just a fact of language, you asswipes. Just kidding, it's all love! Actually, I'm pretty much gay for haters, so come suck my dick. Here's the other thing: shout out to Asian girls, let the lights dim sum. Drake! Anyway, my point is, the guy below who decided that FIFA 13 is better than this game, probably isn't right, but I can't for sure, because I HAVEN'T PLAYER EITHER. But I'm a hater of haters, and that's my screen name on MSN ya'll. AOL? ASL? AWOL?

    Actually, I'm a black person. Did you know that black people have sex with white people? Did you further know that gay people have sex with other gay people?! HOLY ****

    Exclamations, explanations, did you hate that exaggeration? I think you did, you little perv turn off the computer before it makes your face burn.    … Expand

    This game used to be really fun. But it hasn't improve a lot in the last five years. Now it's meant to be played by its core fan base. If you never bought a football game, I'd rather recommend to consider other games form the competition. If you been playing Pro Evolution Soccer all your life and do not wasn't to experience new things, go for this. It's the same deal it always was, it won't dissapoint you.… Expand

    Every last years reviews seem to bash PES and praise FIFA so hard. They keep calling FIFA a sim and PES arcade, yet I tried both and I still feel it's the totally opposite...
    People also keep talking about how the PS2 editions were so much better, but I myself have been playing 2013 and then the PS2 ones... the new game feels so much realistic in every possible way. It's really really fun     to play with friends, and even though it's better than PES 2012, I have to admit that the changes aren't as many or as important as I expected. But the game is still good, and I think it's on the same level as this year's FIFA.… Expand

    Don't let the bad review fool you, it's always like that with fanboys. This year Pro Evo and Fifa each have their own merits. They're both good games. If you are like me and have been playing Pro evo and then went to fifa, now is a good year to give PES another chance. The manual runs and manual passing give the game a great uniqueness. Of course the animations are not even close to the perfection that is fifa, but gameplaywise this is a fantastic game...you have at the same time assisted passes and manual passes with the press of a button and also manual runs for players not on the ball... Give it a try!… Expand

    Good PES, good controls, good playing modes... It's still far from PES 6, but it's the best PES since then. Of course, better than FIFA, as PES 2013 is like 2012 but with improved gameplay, goalkeepers, online gameplay... FIFA 13 is FIFA 12 worsened.

    I have a schizophrenic relationship with Pro Evo 2013.

    One moment, I am totally besotted in wonder at the game, the next minute I am wanting to put my fist through some Konami rep's face.

    PES 2013 offers unrivalled playability and heart stopping action, albeit via an engine with some brutal flaws. However, with the super improved defending, it is for the most part possible to block r    epetative lame exploit gameplay as is common when playing against rat-boys online (I have turned into a rat-boy as well when playing strangers online..PES does that to people). However, due to the scripted nature of PES, sometimes it will be very hard, if not utterly impossible to defend the lame exploit attempts. Furthermore, as soon as one realises how much of a hand the AI has in influencing the flow of the game, rage induced panic attacks can occur, especially in situations where some rat boy is exploiting my ass whilst the AI is simulataneously beating me with a faeces covered stick. As much as my PES induced rage would could drive me to hitting sites all across the internet spreading lots of hate about the game. Since PES 2013 came out. I have been totally uninterested in playing any other game. I own a high end PC and can play any title you care to name totally maxed. But all I want is my daily and rather large, intense hit of PES 2013. For that reason, even though I hate PES and want to stamp out Konami's guts, I have to give the game a 9/10.… Expand

    I've played Pes nonstop since 2002 (damn. ... what a loser I am hahah ...) every year until a new part comes out. I think this year's Pes2013 is an exceptionally big step forward compared to the editions that came out after the legendary Pes6 (in 2006).. The new Pes game is much more challenging due to the possibility to use 100% manual controls.You can now choose movement in a pass or tackle urself (like every cm to the left or right and 10000 options from soft to hard) ... this is very challenging and sometimes frustrating but if the ball is given a correct kick it gives often harder and more extreme goals that are very beautiful, satisfying and always unique!! ...... To get this you must first change all controll settings to manual though!.. Pes is the best football game for PC gamers if you ask me. Fifa appears on the console very well the paint to come. The reason why Pes is primarily a PC game is easy to explain: On the PC you can use the patch from the website patchedit.com so the game is absolutely perfect in every detail ... f.e. the hairstyles of footballers are the same as they were this week in the Champions League league... .. and last but maybe most important of all: The graphics get an extreme makeover leaving out the blur and the low detail graphic settings that Konami chooses by default assuming everybody still has a Pentium 4 pc..believe me..the visuals are stunning... when will Konami wake up and open the available eyecandy for the main audience??… Expand

    great game and on par with fifa in terms of gameplay, field feels big, not so cramped as in fifa. however, i think they can do so much in terms of graphics, animations and that atrocious sound design and commentary. if it werent for mods i wouldnt even be playing it now. AND WHAT ABOUT that afternoon matches? why remove that? one of the bes tparts of the PES were those afternoon matches with awesome lighting unmatched in any sports game. now its the same old lame night and day crap.… Expand

    I'm a little disappointed they removed the league mode. Friends and I liked to get together to have such tournaments. But overall, the gameplay improvements are to vast and to great to ignore. This is, without doubt, one of the great sport simulations out there. It's up there with NBA 2K13 as Sport Sim of the Year. Two great games that are authentic to the sport and really highlight the individuality of players. Player ID feature is amazing. Must buy.… Expand

    Much better teamwork, better online play, best of the PS3 generation.... Then Konami decide to remove the league option stopping you from playing with friends in 1 location unless you want to go back to the days of writing a league table on some paper. For the simple fact they removed a core mechanic behind playing with friends and organised tournaments PES 2013 gets a 1 as it is simply unplayable and has 50 of us involved in North East England PES tournaments and buy our own copies for practice during the week are now having to look at the enemy in FIFA which would still allow us to play in the manner we have been accustomed to. Whoever made that decision at Konami should be sacked and never work in gaming again as they quite simply have zero grasp of the games target market.… Collapse

    Pro Evolution Soccer 2013 manages to revitalize essential aspects of the game’s rhythm and gameplay details. The end result is a deep, interesting, ever-enjoyable football game that will cater to the needs of both hardcore followers of the franchise and casual gamers. [November 2012]

    We've approached the new PES with increased caution because of the last season – but the core gameplay is great and the flaws are of minor character. [Nov 2012]

    The latest iteration of Konami's football game is fine, but inorganic, stolid, and a little dull. Pick FIFA over this on PC.
