Asuka's Gonna Kill You

Arrived this morning. Had a couple of games online, great when the game get's flowing. Scoring and defending is tougher this year IMO. Tactics are so crucial too. Importing the option/kit file is very easy and simple. Does all of the kits/names in one go, one click and then it starts importing them all, takes about 5 minutes or so. With the emblems/league names you have to do those manually yourself, takes about 5 minutes too if you want to do those (I.E change English League to Premier League etc).

Week 1: Leyton Ortient Week 2: Chelsea Week 3: Arsenal Week 4: Norwich This week: Leicester

Pretty much takes a minute at most to import the kits

Joke from the Rams. Went into the game needing 7 points from the number 1 ranked RB in fantasy football and couldn't even put that up. Terrible opening week for my team

West Brom 1-2 West Ham (Sat 3pm)Everton 1-0 Middlesbrough (Sat 5.30pm)Watford 0-2 Man Utd (Sun 12pm)Crystal Palace 1-1 Stoke (Sun 2.15pm)Southampton 1-1 Swansea (Sun 2.15pm)

Don't get why Jose went with Pogba and Fellaini as the midfield pairing. Pogba works best in a three man midfield, if you're going to play him in a two then the last fucking person you want partnering him is Fellaini. Glad to see Herrera on as it'll give Pogba more freedom now.

10 minutes for full games on the demo I think is the longest (10 full game or is it a half? They go pretty quick). myClub is the main mode for me, actually it's where I spend 95% of my time on the game unless I'm playing with friends. There's still areas they can improve it but I'm still always hooked. There's no transfer market, instead you spin/open balls for players from whatever agents you want to (GK, DEF, MF, CF. Every week they'll do a couple of special agents such as English League agent, La Liga agent, Legends agent, Champion's League agent and so on. Obviously if you spin an English League agent for example, you'll get a player rated 75+ that plays in the PL). You can play weekly competitions against the CPU as well as there being competitions to play against actual players. There's a SIM division or SIM area in general if you're into that stuff and obviously a normal division to play. Nothing too complicated, it's more based around building up your own teams and using them against people or the CPU. You can buy managers and a new set of managers show up every week. Chemistry is crucial and certain players fit into a system better under different managers who play different styles I.E Carroll would likely fit in straight away under Sam Allardyce compared to what he would if you had Pep. Even if they don't fit into the system though you can play them in the team and they'll slowly start to build up their chemistry under that manager and be a better fit (it's actually called Team Spirit on PES rather than chemistry). 99 Team Spirit is the aim. Basically not all that different to Fifa, if you play with 99 TS your team will connect brilliantly compared to if you play with 65 TS, where they just won't gel as well. The start of myClub is always quite fun as you usually begin with around 60-65 TS from what I remember and it takes a while to build it up. Free agents are pretty important to. For every game you play you get a free agent. A free agent gives you one spin to get a player (you can stock up a good amount of these). You get percentages on how high rated your player is going to be. Everytime you spin an agent, you land on a ball, basically a roulette wheel but instead of numbers it's different coloured balls. White Ball - 56-60 overall rated player Bronze - 61-65 overall rated Silver - 66-74 overall rated Gold - 75-79 overall rated Black - 80+ overall rated The ratings are like something above. The key part is that when you spend coins/GP on a proper agent, you're guaranteed a gold or black ball. However with free agents, there's a higher chance of getting a lower rated player (so a white, bronze or silver). Another twist is that you can combine up to three free agents. I know, you're probably wondering "what the fuck is he going on about?" at this stage so for example if I had 20 free agents saved up and I looked through them and found an agent that is an English League agent, then found another that was a CF agent and then finally another that was an English Nationality agent, I could combine those for one spin to narrow down my search for what type of player I want. This combination would obviously give me a shot at somebody like Wayne Rooney as he fits all of the criteria. At the same time though, plenty of other players fall into the same criteria so instead of Rooney it could give me Patrick Bamford for example. Hopefully you get the idea by now. It's why some people decide to save agents for shots at specific players rather than spin them one by one. As I mentioned, you get free agents every time you play a game. Also, they put up fresh competitions every week to earn special agents. There's ones against the CPU (English League Agent as an example. You then enter a knockout tournament of three or four games, the first being on an easier difficulty and the final being something like Top Player. Win them all and you get the special agent). There's also a special challenge to play against other players every week to earn a special agent or GP to spend, the rules and challenges vary. Ultimately the main core in playing people and the CPU is the same as Fifa but building teams, managers, styles and even chemistry/TS is completely different. On Fifa you can go out and get whoever you want, you can't do that on here. You're a huge fan of Rashford? You might be there for a month or two trying to pull him, but when you do, the feeling is brilliant. You have to think about the players you have and how you're going to use them much more because there is no transfer market. It pushes you to try different styles and to use players you'd probably never even consider. It's not for everybody obviously but I like that they tried something different. There's probably more but I've rambled on and bored you long enough. Some people love the mode while I've known others that can't get into it. If you do try it I'd say try to stick with it for a while even if you're struggling, it's pretty addicting once you get into full swing.

PESFan and PESgaming usually have stuff in their editing sections, pesworld will have kits too. Matter of waiting until it comes out, imagine kits will pop up by the weekend that it comes out.

Bloody brilliant, completely deserved that too.

Apparently will be much easier/quicker than last year. Demo is really good, cross field passing and crossing is beautiful. The player I.D is as good as ever, Payet feels brilliant in this. Just like last year though online will be the true test. '16 felt great at the start but then online revealed how many holes there were in the game (most notable one being the ability to easily spam through ball in such an effective way). It feels like they've worked on most of the issues but it's a matter of waiting to see how it plays online now for me.

2 and 3 are the question marks. While Conor controls most of the fight for the first 3 or so minutes of the second (and even get's two knockdowns), you could still argue Diaz does more damage in the final minute and a half, not surprised that round went to Conor though. Round 3 was bordering on 10-8 due to the last minute or so. I've seen fights stopped for less than that, Diaz was battering Conor at the end. Ridiculously close fight. I had Diaz winning on first view, on second view it's just as close, possibly a draw. Great fight either way.

QB Matt Ryan @munky

I'm in but like Drags I won't be picking it up on launch day. Will likely be a week after it comes out so not too long. Steelers again for me.
