Soccer is a game that is at home in the hearts of millions of fans around the world. For people who love soccer, it is sometimes difficult to imagine life without their favorite sport. Leading their league in global recreational games, soccer fans storm various stadiums week after week from England to Spain, across every continent on mother earth.
Over the years, video game manufacturers have sincerely tried to provide the growing football fan base with a field-like experience. Although none have achieved it one hundred percent, Pro Evolution Soccer 2013 is unique in this regard.
Made by Japan-based Konami, the game makes up for what it lacks in licenses in gameplay. I do have a few cons, but all of that pales in comparison to its pros.
Some of the advantages that the game has over its peers,
• There is no time lapse between the moment you press a button and the moment you see the effect on the screen, which is great, especially if you are one goal down and time runs out and you have a chance to shoot .
• Has a more realistic feel as computer players actually make blunders unlike other games where computer players are ‘perfect out of this world’.
• Comes with a feature that allows you to direct the ball where you want depending on your player’s position, unlike other games where you only move up and down, left and right.
• The actual game is very similar to the real thing, with player-specific celebrations after goals, similar to what can be achieved on the field of play.
• It has the license of the UEFA champions league
The skill set of the person in control affects the overall experience derived from the game, so Pro Evolution Soccer 2013 comes with tutorials to help you get the most out of the game. This is not a PES exclusive feature, but it improves the overall user experience.
Concerns about not being licensed by FIFA are handled by editing names of players, kits, stadiums, etc. This, along with the superior gaming experience it provides, makes for an excellent combination. PES 2013 is compatible with all major game consoles, including but not limited to PS3, XBOX 360, etc.
All I have jotted down are just some highs and lows of PES 2013 in an effort to help you get to know the game better. It has my recommendations if you’re considering including it in your games chest; Go ahead bring the pitch into your living room.
