Owen Joins Ronaldo on Pro Evo 2008 Cover

Konami has today announced that Michael Owen, the Newcastle and England striker, is to feature on the UK packaging and promotional materials of PES 2008 the latest incarnation of the multi-million-selling Pro Evolution Soccer series.

Michael Owen is one of the most exciting and prolific strikers in the English game, and will join Cristiano Ronaldo on the UK packshots of PES 2008. Since making his first team debut in 1997, Owen has built a reputation for pace and skill, netting over 178 league goals, and 37 for England. His reputation spans the globe, making Michael the perfect compliment to Cristiano Ronaldo's status on the world stage, and creating an enviable pairing for the new game.

Not Owen, they should have Rooney or Drogba, not owen.

[SWORDF1SH]

owen is a has been. he hasnt played good for 4 or 5 years. but who cares when pro evo is the best footy game ever

[boi]

lol Owen!!!?!?!?

b4 when he was with liverpool and wa splaying his best yes but not now lol

[Retro-Virus]

Does it really matter ?

It's the best soccer sim ever made by a mile !!

[boi]

true

[gamehead]

i bet they gonna toss beckham on the american version

[okcomputer]

I doubt it, beckham would probably be too expensive. Lets not forget this is the company too cheap to buy up all the premiership licenses so we can play with real kits and team names. Still.. this is the best football game on the market by far so its alright.

Im surprised Terry isn't on.

[sandip787]

terry was on the last one, or was it 5? i cant remember.
hmmm i guess its paying homage to what he was back in the good ole days.
ida preferred gerrard though...

[nirwanda]

was on the last one i've just checked rather than owen I'd have put peta cech, reina or lehman on with a close up picture of them staring at ronaldo looking like they want to break his legs

[sandip787]

haha funny ^^
so is everyone here from uk?

[DiLeCtioN]

please f owen he didnt do jack this season. so many injuries i cant even count. as far as am concerned...rooney,scholes,dro gba and obviously ronaldo are my top players for 06/07 season

[Itachi]

Owen is used for the injury animation

And Ronaldo is used for the diving animation

LOL

It should have been KAKA, Fabregas, Terry and Messi

[ad4mb]

KAKA and Messi dont play in premiership

[Itachi]

its not about who plays in the prem remember pro evo 4 totti and adriano pro6 its about the best players on the cover

they will have a premiership winning team - in like 4 years when the youth is more experienced. until then youll just have to wait patiently.
