Like a phoenix from the ashes ...

Actually I wanted to write PES is back, but this title has someone employed in one of the previous reviews before me, but this short sentence hits the nail.
Konami has returned really impressive with PES 2011.

I, too, was for a time an ardent supporter of the Pro Evo series, but without prejudice to the FIFA series over that I've bought parallel even frequently.
PES 5, 6 and 2007 were absolutely top class, but somehow Konami has any as always made the game worse afterwards. To put the years of denial on motion capture and therefore not to make the leap to the next-gen consoles, a burden was the Konami lies increasingly being left behind. But already in PES 2010 Konami was noted that they do not simply want a fight to give EA the top spot.
Playful While it was not quite to my taste, but graphically PES was already last season and this year a real Sahnestückchen Konami has really impressive return again.
PES is back.

The new free pass and manual control with the manual can play one magnificent passes in the blank leaves nothing to be desired and I like it almost better than the comparable game engine of FIFA, if you put there the controller helps to manual.
But most impressive is the beautiful sculptural graphics. The player faces, jerseys, stadiums, grass, etc. look eerily realistic and have a high recognition factor (faces, hairstyles, jerseys).
The beautifully designed and clearly laid out menu are the finest, which was not always so. By contrast, the menus look in FIFA drab.
Even the editor leaves nothing to be desired, you really can edit almost everything (player values, faces, jerseys, teams, leagues, coat of arms and, more recently, you can create even own stages).
The strategic and tactical settings have been, as usual PES, a multitude of possibilities.
It is also gratifying that Konami makes diehard FIFA players this year a lot easier to get along with the game. Finally, the tricks are completely on the right analog stick, as is common with FIFA for years. The complicated control with numerous shortcuts for simple tricks have always had me in PES an eyesore and I've always liked much better in FIFA. But apparently you have learned here from EA and starts the controller control easier to make logical and.

Honestly, if not the most vexing issue with the licenses would be (I play now times like the Bundesliga), would no longer exist for me this year is no reason to buy FIFA, PES is because virtually since PES 6 times.

Conclusion: In my opinion the best of all time and a clear PES Kauftip !!!

Pro:

- Beautiful, sculptural game graphics, high brand recognition in faces and jerseys, and the grass really looks like one of

- Beautifully designed and clearly menus

- 360 degree control and free manual passport system is incredibly realistic and the finest plays

- Great dynamic camera angles

- Many taktische- and strategic adjustment

- Very nice animations

- Very versatile editor which allows you to edit almost everything

Cons:

- The usual problem of missing Bundesliga licenses, although there are a few players that does not bother, want but most with their favorite club from the Bundesliga (the editor is there not much solace, because you have to invest a lot of sweat of the brow to the Bundesliga integrate)

- Control could be simplified even more, since FIFA is logical and innovative

Addendum:
On a tip down, I ordered the Xbox Live Vision camera, with which you can very easily be integrated into the editor with a little diligence work and a steady hand, logos, insignia, player faces and emblems. Then the captured image processed a little in the editor and you get a very respectable results created.
Did the nature testweise my favorite club created and am of the opinion it looks very realistic in the game. The PES League with the fantasy team is great to the Bundesliga to integrate it.
