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!

Strong, but just behind FIFA. [Christmas 2009, p.117]

Still addictive as ever, but very little has changed. The official Champions League is a nice addition, but it lacks the German teams and up-to-date player selections. Improved A.I. and shorter loading times justifies a new purchase, but don’t expect a much different game from last year.

PES 2010 has the same errors than its previous version. It's an acceptable game, but it needs to improve in the visuals, AI and licenses.

PES2010 hits the post this year. It's basically the same game we've enjoyed during the last 12 months, with same graphics and gameplay mechanics. Plus, there's no sign of the Online Features, and the only new inclusion's the UEFA Champions League. It's not that much, but it's still one of the most interesting football games for this handheld.

The arcade gameplay is perfect for a portable soccer experience, but some issues with graphic and sound ruins the global experience.

Still, if you haven’t played Pro Evo on the PSP before, PES 2010 offers up as solid and entertaining a game of football as you are likely to find for your Sony handheld.

This portable adaption isn’t the best version of the game. It’s got the same problems like last year, most of the licenses are missing and there is nothing new to the gameplay. A game only for hardcore fans of the franchise.

Ultimately, this is a good game that doesn't evolve much from last year's version, a fact which should have taken into account by players considering buying it.
