Pro Evolution Soccer 2016 Reviews
Side by side, Pro Evolution Soccer 2016 doesn't stack up to FIFA 16 in licenses, game modes, or team selection, but Konami's annual soccer series once again positions itself as a more complex and realistic soccer experience than EA's flashy, but predictable, offering. With individualized players, explosive tactical potential and unparalleled realism, PES 2016 redefines what a soccer game can be.
The Pro Evolution Soccer series has been steadily improving over the past few years, and with PES 2016 it seems the dev team has finally cracked that winning football formula, despite some rough edges.
So has PES finally staged a winning comeback? The answer is almost. The gameplay is faster and undoubtedly easier to get into. It's let down by inconsistent defensive AI and poor menus, which keep it from achieving perfection. Nonetheless, it's a step in the right direction. We can't wait to see what Konami do with PES 2017.
While not for everyone, PES 2016 is actually a very well done game. I learned a good amount, but am by no means an expert. I was able to get a good feel for the game and was able handle some matches on the easier difficulty. This is still very much a soccer fan's game, and while it has the tutorials, the game is not very beginner-friendly. At the same time, what it does, it does very well and looks great while doing it. Any fan of the sport should definitely check it out.
PES 2016, while not being perfect, feels true to its title - it's an evolution. Master League has been revamped and fine-tuned into an excellent mode that only suffers thanks to the lack of licenses, MyClub is growing well and differs enough from Ultimate Team, and the gameplay feels refined and balanced enough to make every game a challenge but not a chore. Thanks to all of these factors, PES 2016 currently feels like it's in a league of its own.
در نهایت به همه فوتبالدوستان ، چه کسانی که در گذشته دوران شکوه PES را تجربه کرده اند و چه کسانی در سالهای اخیر به جامعه گیمرها اضافه شده اند توصیه می کنیم که تمامی پیش زمینه های منفی PES را از ذهن خود پاک کنید . PES بار دیگر در مسیر درستی قرار گرفته است ، مسیری جدید اما با حفظ اصالت و ارزش های قدیمی خود و این رویکرد ، رویکردی ارزشمند و قابل احترام است . گذشته ی موفق PES را دوست بدارید و با ارزشمند بودن آن تجربه ، به سراغ خلق آینده ای جذاب با PES 16 بروید . بازگشت PES بدون شک می تواند باعث رقابت نزدیک تر بین FIFA و PES شود و خروجی این رقابت جذاب و نزدیک باعث پویایی سبک شبیه سازی ورزشی خواهد شد .

Pro Evolution Soccer 2016 is going to be fierce competition for any soccer games coming up. This is currently the definitive vision and version of how being on a real teal should feel.
PES 2016 lives up to the hype and is a wonderful tribute to 20 years of hard work from Konami and PES Productions.
I've felt over the last few years that Pro Evo was starting to get somewhere again as a football game, and with 2016 they have nailed it. The gameplay is the best it's been in years, the licenses issue is not really an issue any more with a little bit of extra work that will just take an hour. I just hope the commentary gets some looking in to next year as that was one of the biggest issues I had with the game, and stopped it short of being a perfect football game.
PES 2016 offers some notable improvements, especially for series veterans, but a lack of polish in certain areas keep the game from reaching higher ground.
Meanwhile, PES is the football game for people who love the elegance, grace, and flow of the sport. PES has always been good at that, and this year's edition, while only making subtle tweaks to the on-field engine, has done so so effectively that it has become the definitive take on the sport.
PES 16 is very close to the game long-term fans have needed and demanded. It inexplicably manages to match terrific, absorbing gameplay with awful presentation everywhere but on the pitch.
While there's a robust simplicity to the gameplay that is engaging, right or wrong, we've all got used to a level of completeness and polish that PES, even twenty years on, is still sometimes missing.
PES 2016 offers a smart, strategic, thrilling and unpredicatable game of football.
PES finally finds the balance between stout sim and accessible arcade, but a poor port cast shadow on an otherwise great game.
PES is the ultimate football game for players. Fans may be scorned by license woes, but if you want to play a high quality football game that looks and plays just like the real thing than look no further.
PES 2016 is a fantastic sports game that every avid football enthusiast should own.
PES 2016 gives players a great choice besides FIFA and if you're a fan of one series or another, migrating to another game can be difficult. Konami have also listened tot he players and PES 2016 is definitely one of the most all-rounded soccer games from their franchise that successfully tweaks the gameplay to create a great next-gen experience on the PlayStation 4.
Konami has made the years-long derby with EA interesting again, posing a stunning comeback with its latest effort.
PES has won this round over FIFA, but it may not be quite the victory they were hoping for. It's a massive leap in the right direction with its innovative gameplay and features, but simple mistakes have stopped it from being the new Pro Evolution Soccer everyone was hoping for.
