Winning Eleven returns to Japan for its 10th anniversary. Usually, the annual revamp gets released during the summer, but Konami is naturally jumping on the World Cup hysteria bandwagon [Editor: who else got their Argentina-Netherlands tickets yet?] this year and intends to have Winning Eleven 10 ready on April 27th, which we couldn't be more excited about. While visually the PS2 has been mostly maxed out now, major changes in the new WE include more content (national teams, licences, game modes) and tuned handling. Fans of the series (titled Pro Evolution Soccer in Europe) can expect another perfect and simply fun to play soccer simulation, that will be popular long after the last rerun of this year's World Cup's best goals and most spectacular actions from Ronaldinho & co has aired.
As we look ahead to next month, there's just four weeks left till April 27th when Winning Eleven 10 scores again on PS2.

Concerning gameplay, the new WE 10 overall seems to come off as more dynamic than last year's version. Dribbles have been added and there's a more sensitive cursor change, when you select your active player, resulting in faster changes altogether. The referee issues less yellow and red cards now, while it's also possible to start a match again directly with a simple button combination. The game flow is likely to feel even more natural with all the dedicated effort the soccer experts at Konami put into this year's title. Even beginners are taken care of: simply set up an automatic strategy depending on your team's type of play (English, Brazilian, Asian style etc.). Updated with the latest transfers, Winning Eleven 10 will offer a comprehensive library of real-life players to have at your disposal for fantastic, soccer action filled gaming sessions.
New licenses will include the English national team plus Italy, Netherlands, Spain and Argentina also entering the virtual lawn from your PS2 this time. On top of that, Bayern Munich is licensed as well, as are African countries. Graphically, the reactions of players have been reworked for the better and we can look forward to new animations here too. Massive soccer content, visual brilliance and what not only fans of the series regard as the most authentic gameplay for this genre, Winning Eleven 10 sure is worth your bet already. What greater way than to celebrate/replay the 2006 World Cup's events? If your favorite team fails to convince in Germany this year, with this title you'll have the means to set the record straight: right there in front of your PS2. Later this year, we hope for the first Nintendo DS version of Winning Eleven then. Certainly interesting how touch screen and stylus control will come into play there.
