  • Summary: PES 2010 focuses on enhancing the excitement of matches between players, making for a truly challenging experience that constantly tests the player. Intuitive zonal defending covers spaces and players need to look constantly for new ways to attack. PES 2010 focuses on being a real soccer simulation, as it requires both strategic play and quick reactions, as in real life. In addition to key out-field elements, goalkeepers are more versatile and with abilities matching those of modern shot-stoppers. The game's referees have also been reworked, with smarter AI elements allowing them to make more balanced calls during matches. PES 2010 has undergone a major visual revamp, with its celebrated player likenesses and animations now even closer to those of real-life players - including live player expressions to be depicted with an improved lighting system which differentiates between various conditions!

  1. Its core is as exciting as ever and the new features justify trading in last year's edition.
  2. Konami delivers an excellent game of football on Wii. Better, a more refined and complete experience than before.
  3. A brilliant brain-taxing alternative to normal PES without sweeping changes. [Winter 2009, p.81]

    This game is a good footie for the Wii, but because of the lack of evolution and innovation it failed to be more than that.

    Visceral Virtual Association Footballing that is at least 12 parsecs beyond traditional controller schemes. Awesome.
  4. Best Pro Evolution Soccer version of any plataforms. Playing with the classic controller it keeps the same great playability from PS2 versions but with really good looking graphics and AI gives you a real challenge on single player game modes. Also enjoyable with the playmaker controls scheme. Expand
