PES 2009: 23 weird and wonderful goals (Feature)

Aug 14, 2009

We play a lot of PES. Hell, with the amount of man hours we’ve wasted playing it at lunchtime we’re pretty sure we could have cured world hunger, cracked the credit crunch and figured out how ro fix the game’s wretched, pan-handed keepers. During that time we’ve scored a shedload of goals and clogged up a lot of space on our hard-drives by never once watching them again.

But with the new Premier League ...

Classic mistakes rookies always make (Feature)

Jul 9, 2009

Ah, noobs. With their awkward fingers and stupid questions, it's a wonder we ever let them near our joypads at all. It's nice to get someone started in gaming, but it's so hard to witness utter incompetence at your favourite games.

But instead of yelling, snatching the pad and showing them how it should be done, why not sit back, make encouraging noises and tick off each entry in our list of classic rookie mistakes ...

Stupid game terminology (Feature)

Jun 18, 2009

Why can’t some people just call a spade a spade? Or, in the case of video games, call a health pack a health pack, instead of a multi-purpose, cosmic healitron 3000. We’re sick of developers trying to give their games extra context or dimension by pasting unnecessary and sometimes baffling terminology onto simple, every day game actions or objects. It’s convoluted, embarrassing and totally comically. Below are some of the ...

Which create-a-character is best for making Obama? (Feature)

Jan 30, 2009

Barack Obama. The most important politician in a generation. A peerless orator. Winner of a historic election. And exceedingly effin hard to recreate in every create a character mode we could find. You’d think the current leader of the free world’s unassuming features would be easy to make with the plethora of chin, forehead and septum sliders most games now have. Wrong.

Not only did we fail to craft convincing Obamas, we ...

FIFA vs PES: The comparison you've never read before (Feature)

Oct 21, 2008

Certain things in football are forever guaranteed. Billionaire sugar daddies splashing cash on clubs they’ve never heard of – ‘cough’, Manchester City, ‘cough’. More dissent on pitches than an Argentinian palace coup. And, without fail, FIFA and PES gamers arguing across the globe over which footie title rules the digital dugout. ...

PES 2009 (Review)

Oct 16, 2008

After last year’s good, yet disappointing PES 2008, Konami have it all to do to win over the mass market and hardcore fans with their latest edition. EA’s stranglehold on team/player/stadium licenses immediately puts pressure on PES 2009 to placate those who refuse to play with Man Red at the St Bristol Mary stadium. Thankfully, the edit mode is back, which means you can create badges, kits and players from scratch. ...
