Pro Evolution Soccer 2013 Review – AbsoluteGaming

A few years ago, a tragic event happened. No no, I’m not talking about that time where that tosspot Jamie Oliver decided it would be a good idea to get turkey twizzlers taken off our supermarket shelves (they were bloody lovely though). I’m talking about the time, near the beginning of this generation of consoles, where Konami and Pro Evolution Soccer lost their way. When the grip on the best football game title was lost to the enemy….FIFA *spits on the floor*. Pro Evo, as ISS (International Superstar Soccer) did before it, will always hold a special place in my heart. I’m now a FIFA man (my past self will hate me for that fact), and I haven’t tried a new PES game in years, through fear of being let down for yet another season. But, after playing the 2013 version of the game at Eurogamer Expo, I felt the warm feeling I used to back in the day. Had Konami finally done it? I was eager to find out more.
