Konami's Winning Eleven games have never been able to boast the official licenses and superb presentation that are such integral parts of many other sports games, and as a result, the series has earned its great reputation solely on the strength of its realistic gameplay. World Soccer Winning Eleven 8 International not only marks the first time that (an unfortunately limited number of) licensed club teams have appeared in a Winning Eleven game, but also the first time that the series has appeared on the Xbox. Released in Europe as Pro Evolution Soccer 4 toward the end of last year, World Soccer Winning Eleven 8 International is undoubtedly Konami's best soccer game to date, thanks to a number of quite dramatic improvements made both on and off the field. The training mode offers plenty of ways to hone your skills. The PC version of Winning Eleven 8 is essentially a slightly enhanced port of the PlayStation 2 game released earlier this month. The most noticeable differences between the PC and PS2 versions are that the PC game benefits from improved visuals (thanks purely to the maximum resolution of 1280x1024) and adds online play to what was already a package offering great longevity.
So our job as musicians is to help them get loose and have a good time and feel good about themselves.' A lot of people don't know how to get loose of it. In the digital age, it's even more intense.
It's not all good news, though, because the game's menus and tutorials frequently refer to the PS2's X, square, circle, and triangle buttons (only the colors of them have changed). Furthermore, the online play, although a welcome addition, could not have been implemented more poorly. The only way you can connect to another player online is by exchanging IP addresses and then entering into a host-client relationship. There are third-party downloads available (such as PES4 Launcher) that let you match up with other players from around the world, but finding opponents with an acceptable ping (one that won't make the controls feel frustratingly unresponsive) can occasionally prove difficult. Regardless of whether or not you're familiar with previous Winning Eleven games, the first thing you'll want to check out in Winning Eleven 8 is its surprisingly deep training mode, which, like everything else, can be reached via menu screens that are both far easier on the eyes and far easier to navigate than those found in previous entries in the series. The training options in Winning Eleven 8 are divided into four subcategories: beginner training, free training, situation training, and challenge training.
