    The control feels natural and responsive, but the Xbox 360 version features somewhat larger players on the feild than the PS2 - something gamers without big screens may wish to consider.

    The presentation is absolutely first rate and even though some of the control options I loved from past games are gone, the controls are finely tuned and it's possible to score some awesome goals.

    In front, it is one of the most beautiful, well presented and solidly put together sports games that you're likely to see. Then, you get onto the pitch and the game engine lets everything down horribly.

    Dont believe the hype (or the gloss) - this is still just a football game for kids, or people who know nothing about football. Pro Evolution Soccer is still the only real player on the block.… Expand

    Some of the likenesses are impressive, but not breath taking. The gameplay is simply unforgivable, it doesn't feel that you have any control over where your shots are being directed and the AI doesn't make intelligent runs down the wing etc. like you would expect from a superior title like Pro Evo. The fact this has come out so soon after 'Road to the World Cup' is an extra slap in the face.… Expand
