Features

  • PES 2010 contains improved visuals, animations and moves, including live player expressions and movements that will change according to conditions on the field. Animations of dribbling and shots on goal, as well as individual skills, have all been reworked.
  • Gameplay has been made more realistic to constantly test the player, requiring the player to have both strategic play and quick reactions, just like real life. This includes more versatile goalkeepers, greater control over penalties in terms of placing and accuracy, and intuitive zonal defending.
  • There will be an enhanced online experience; a new development team is solely dedicated to improving online play and other aspects such as downloadable content. Previous versions of the game's online mode were plagued with lag, teleporting players and warping.
  • AI has been improved thanks to Teamvision 2.0. Now midfielders and defenders will work together to cut out the attack more effectively. The player will also be able to move several players at once into any opening, resulting in a need for more strategic thinking.
  • The match-day atmosphere has been improved to give a better taste of home or away crowds, which will react spontaneously to all the action on the pitch.
  • 360-degree control is introduced, available on the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC versions of the game via the analogue sticks on the respective controllers. The system will allow players to spread the ball with ease, opening up new attacking and defensive possibilities. PS3 owners will also benefit from this when using the Dualshock’s D-Pad, but the Xbox 360 and Wii D-Pads are limited to eight-directional control due to the hardware.
  • Automatic tackling, which often lead to fouls, has now been removed.
  • Overhaul of the penalty system.
  • Goalkeepers now more intelligent and less prone to errors.
  • Konami ID is no longer a requirement for online play.
  • Players "freezing" after taking  free kicks removed.
  • The master league has seen many enhancements; Real team budgets with real currency, The ability to play UEFA Champions League and Europa League matches during the season and you can skip matches.
