First reviews are in for latest Pro Evolution Soccer

The second game for which the first reviews started appearing online today is Konami’s Pro Evolution Soccer 2013. The game is doing pretty much average for a sports title, with a metacritic score of just above 80%.

An overview:

  • Vandal Online: 90
  • IGN: 85
  • GamingXP: 86
  • 3DJuegos: 85
  • Playstation Official Magazine UK: 80
  • Official Xbox Magazine UK: 80
  • ImpulseGamer: 80
  • DigitalSpy: 80
  • Gameblog.fr: 70

DigitalSpy sums it up as follows:

Like a hulking centre back shrugging off a diminutive winger, PES 2013′s pros far outweigh its cons. Similar to the Barcelona midfield, each gameplay enhancement compliments the next, leading to some beautiful free-flowing football. The title still needs some work off the field, but is far from a club in crisis. When the whistle blows and the action is go, PES 2013 is easily a match for FIFA, coming closer than ever to wining back its crown.

The lack of officially licensed teams, lackluster presentation and a commentary that desperately needs an overhaul are the things they liked the least.
