    Crucially, though, that intangible PES magic remains and expands with the potential of the new engine; matches take on their own personalities (helped by new player emotions – perform well and your play will visibly improve during the game) and you’ll discuss great goals for years, especially now that shooting and heading are weightier, more natural feeling. Even Master League is better.

    While the new engine, based on Kojima Production's FOX Engine, allowed a visual improvement, it also helped us realize that the game's physics are in need of a little renovation. The game modes are basically the same as in previous editions, but the real improvements were made in its core mechanics. Obsessive players are going to be able to control every detail of the game, but newcomers might feel overwhelmed by all the new possibilities that the complex control scheme allows.

    This is a good restart for the series and we're sure all the fans will appreciate this chapter.

    Its also frustrating that a game that can give so much on the pitch has very little to offer beyond it.

    PES 2014 is a huge improvement in a franchise with a new engine, which will provide football fans with countless hours of fun. Sadly for everything good Konami has done, if they don’t change their after sales administration, PES will never be top of the League again.

    PES 2014 shows its strengths in the most important places, but ultimately could be more appealing to a wider audience with some polish in the right places. Even so, it's a strong entry in the series that proves there's definitely room for two on the pitch.

    This is a game that tries to straddle the line between arcade action and sublime simulation and never succeeds at either. PES is at its best when it's selective with its realism: here's hoping next year it can go back to doing what it does best.

    I think is the new beginning of PES, as we know since last 5 years the game had some specific changes year by year. For now there are lots.

    The game suffers from several bugs and glitches. Modes have been stripped down to a threadbare minimum which is barely acceptable in this day and age (Master League). The lack of stadia and the removal of the stadium editor is very poor and i just do not buy the excuse from Konami that it all down to aggressive licensing from EA. The game gives the overall impression of being released in an unfinished state. While there is nothing new in this Konami have always had a habit of releasing games without the correct rosters for example before updating in patches there appear to be several aspects of the gameplay which just look incomplete. The goal keepers need a lot of work and manual shooting is terrible with a controlled shot function which is quite simply broken. Attackers seem completely unable to head the ball due to an incredible poor responsiveness that bears no relation to how you time your button press.

    However, the game is not reducible to its bugs and there is a great deal which is awe inspiring. The game really makes you think in midfield about the best way to unlock defences. No game before has made me think in this way there was always an exploit to score cheap goals. The annoyances in difficulty levels are things that Konami can hopefully refine through a patch (AI defenders retreating as you carry the ball unchallenged towards the goal for example)    … Expand

    This is really bad game and not good for our mental health, I'm seriously.. This game can make us oftenly lost temper for playing this gameThis is really bad game and not good for our mental health, I'm seriously.. This game can make us oftenly lost temper for playing this game
    Player often to frezee and just watch the ball roll when collide with other player, and goalkeeper sometimes just watch the ball go in the net
    Teriible face for some star player, this game looks like has been made in hurry mode so we can say simply this is an unfinished game, maybe for some selling reason with the competition with fifa 14
    The menu cursor so slow, looks like this game has not been done completely yet in this area
    Player reaction for passing and shooting so late so we often cannot finish a good soccer gameplay
    The menu and option in master league very simple and we lost so many good things in the previous pes 2013
    Maybe the only thing good of this game is a little bit more realistic in player and ball movement but a lot of defect and hurryness in the making of this game make this game "unrealistic"
    This is a bad game, hope konami wont make same mistake again by launching an unfinished game just for the competition with fifa
