Just when I thought I had the hang of Winning Eleven, I popped in the new game on a new console, and got smoked by the opposition A.I. Badly. C’est la vie, no? Xbox fans finally get their wish as the newest edition of the wildly popular soccer

While we’re sorry that the series still lacks an online component for its console versions, we love the cyclical player skills system, as well as the new player search.

market (soccer game or otherwise). I'm not sure if Konami has 300 people working on the title, or if it's always developing the next title two years in advance, because no sports game annually ups the ante quite like this. There's just no weak spot, begi

Konami’s offering to soccer fans has been sports gaming gold on the PlayStation since the release of its Winning Eleven series and that’s saying a lot considering the fact that Electronic Art’s FIFA Soccer franchise is nothing

After a few games, players will have a solid feel for the game and then begin to experience the most satisfying aspect of the Winning Eleven series: its depth. At first players are happy with passing and shooting, but then players find themselves hungry

For a game that was developed primarily with the PS2 in mind, WE8 delivers a startling ritzy and rich visual package that jumps off the screen when you play. The facial features of the world’s star players are faithfully recreated with starting

WE8 just feels real. The tempo and feel of the game show a deep understanding of soccer. The A.I. is spot-on, especially that of your own teammates, who continually move around and make runs for your benefit. Control is smooth and rock solid.

The gameplay and sheer amount of options alone are mind boggling. And it looks fantastic. Konami knows how to do European Football. Now, they need to get this thing online and fast.

The biggest and inexcusable disappointment is that we Americans and Canadians are being short-changed in comparison to our European counterparts with regard online play on the Xbox and PS2 consoles.

mail to Posh Spice for working her voodoo on David Beckham—already know that this is by far the best "football" sim on the planet. While this year's version still doesn't feature most club, league or stadium licenses, it more than makes up for it wit
