PES 2013 was well worth the wait





















I finally got my hands on a copy of PES (Pro Evolution Soccer) 2013 to continue my quest on "becoming a legend". For the past for years I have been playing this game and in particular the game mode "Become a Legend".

For those of you reading this blog that have not played the game here is some brief info on the game :



"Pro Evolution Soccer (officially abbreviated as PES and known as World Soccer: Winning Eleven in Japan and South Korea) is a series of football video games developed and published by Konami. The series has been produced under the guidance of Shingo "Seabass" Takatsuka.
Every year, the game is released around late September and/or early October with two different titles: World Soccer: Winning Eleven in Japan, and Pro Evolution Soccer in other countries. The Japanese version is a localized version that features local leagues. In 2007, the franchise began to use the name "Winning Eleven: Pro Evolution Soccer" for the American market, which was later changed to "Pro Evolution Soccer" in 2008, dropping the "Winning Eleven" moniker entirely for that region.
Partially as a result of EA Sports' affinity to purchasing exclusive rights for their FIFA series, the games have historically lacked the sheer volume of licenses present in EA's offerings, with the most notable absences being the Premier League and Bundesliga. As such, team jerseys, names, and players may be inaccurate.
Currently, Portuguese player Cristiano Ronaldo the face of the franchise, appearing on front cover of every game being released in the series and in promotional campaigns and advertisements in the media.
As of December 2011, the Pro Evolution Soccer franchise has been localized into 19 languages and available in 62 countries. The series has sold more than 75.43 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best selling videos games in history."
I am not a football fan, however I like this game because it makes me feel as if can become the  next Messi or Ronaldo.

For most person who play this mode their aim is a to play for a Barcelona FC or Spain who are some of the top teams in the world at this point in time, but  my goal was to play for Liverpool and "represent" Trinidad and Tobago. However Trinidad and Tobago is not one of the national teams available which in my opinion was the only bad part in my playing experience.

PES 2013 did not disappoint me as the graphics was even better than the previous installment  which I also played on my Playstation 2. Also game play is a bit more easier and the players look more realistic  which will help in making you feel as if you are actually playing the game

To anyone reading this post I encourage you to purchase PES 2013 because it is money well spent.
