God Is A Geek - 10/10

So if my massive amassing of words hasn't convinced you, let me put it plainly: PES 2017 is bloody incredible. It's a football game that feels like football in every single way. From the tackles to the passing, to the close control, to the scoring of wonderful goals. It's everything football is in reality and in dreams. I've always said that FIFA is the Match of the Day of football games: you only get the highlights, where as in PES you get everything. This couldn't be truer for PES 2017, which really, really could be the greatest football game ever made

PSU - 9.5/10

If PES 2016 was the best entry in around a decade, then PES 2017 is arguably among the greatest in the series full stop. With extra care and attention paid to improving on many of its predecessor's strengths, as well as tweaking and fixing adhered to its issues, PES 2017 comes out of it as a fantastic football game.

Metro - 9/10

In Short: More a refinement than a revolution, but this builds on the achievements of last year's game to ensure one of the finest sports games ever created.

Pros: Newly improved passing, shooting, and dribbling is better than ever, and the goalkeepers are much better than last year. Surprisingly good graphics.

Cons: The referees are more unpredictable and frustrating than ever. The physics engine can suffer the odd hiccup. Few genuinely new features.

Gadgets 360 - 8/10

PES 2017 is not perfect or revolutionary, but it is a solid entry into the PES franchise that fixes some of the problems of PES 2016 and features enough AI improvements that make playing a bit more enjoyable. If you want a taste of how good the game can be, try the co-op mode at a higher difficulty level - that is how we enjoyed the game the most. If you've never played football games, PES 2017 is beginner friendly. Training modes and customisable controls are good enough for new players. Experienced players will also find enough of a challenge to have a blast this game. Its only major weakness is the commentary. If that doesn't bother you, then you should buy PES 2017.

Demo is great but wasn't expecting reviews like this. Meanwhile, fifa still feels sluggish and like fifa. Feels almost exactly like fifa 15 except for the graphics and set pieces. Now it's harder to score though

Konami might stick around in video games with review scores like this

Demo was awesome. Probably the best entry since PES6. Just only if they could get proper licences for all the teams then this game would be complete.

PES 2017 will allow data sharing on PS4 which means you can in download files with all the kits and team names.
