LOVING PRO EVO!

I absolutely love playing PRO EVO! All the elements you could want in a football based computer game are there! You can play as a whole team or even as one individual player. You can also make transfers and manage your teams finances. So in a whole, I still think and believe it is the best football (soccer) based game around. If you are going to tell me that the FIFA series is possibly the best then you are wasting your time! I am not going to be swayed away. PRO EVO through and through.

The next part of this post is about my journey through my master league phase. 

When I first bought the game since upgrading to a PS3, I started my master league as MAN UTD. I myself am a Blackburn Rovers fan, but since the years of shearer and sutton back in the mid 90's, they just haven't had the presence I had hoped. Well back to the present anyhows. As I said, I was to be MAN UTD. The presence of Rooney was sure to help me, even if Ronaldo had gone overseas. Well I was in for a little shock, but I still had a good strength squad. Park Ji Sung and nani on the wings, and scholes along side giggs in the centre with rooney up front. Ferdinand, Vidic, Neville and O'Shea made up my defence, but with the added bonus of the twins (Fabio and Raphael), I still had choices. 

Well within the master league, the system had become more interactive with scouts handling extras and the basis of fan club revenue and sponsors which left me quite pleased. I started off my campaign within the league slowly and after the first 5 games I had won 3 and drawn 2 only to have scored 4 goals. Wow! I had believed the game to be harder, but had not anticipate the computer AI to be so realistic and lifelike. I had at this time still been using my old formation as previously mentioned in other posts. When I changed to my newer formation, things started to look up, but this change hadn't started untill sfter I managed to get myself knocked out of the champions league. DOH! Well I still had a chance in the Europa League, which I went on to win against Fiorentina in the Final. The League finished with MAN UTD top by 11 points and Rooney was league best player, top scorer with 47 goals and Park Ji Sung was assist leader. Season 2 got off to a bad start, even after I had bought a few new players. Owen and Berbatov had both been sold as they were as much use as a car with no wheels. I had bought Luis Fabiano, Mutu, Lennon, Wright Phillips, through transfers and Van Der Vaart on a loan deal. I think the problem had been getting used to the new players within the team. I have now started getting used to my new team and they are making their way steadily back up the table and are currently 3rd. Only 2 points behind the leaders. Also, from winning the previous seasons league, I am back in the champions league. First game against Real Madrid was to be a real test (no pun intended!). In the first season, they hammered me and I did not think they would give an easy run this time either. This is the most current and up to date game I have played in my master league. The final score finished 5-0 to me! 13 shots, 12 on target, 34% possession (work that out, lol), nah, seriously though, I never have a high possession rate, but I still manage get the shots in. 

As this is my most up to date game, I am afraid I am at the end of this post. Do not worry though as there will definately be more to come. I have the lads coming round for a tourney on weds night, and hope to play more of my master league, as well as try out the "become a legend" mode. I enjoyed this in previous versions on the PS2. Well I hope you enjoyed this post and have kept up to date with the others too. I hope you can come back regularly as I have more and more posts and other content becoming available.
