PES 2012 Whats Going On?

So it has been a few weeks sins the PES 2012 announcement and we have had no more official news to report. The next batch of news will be at E3 as we reported last week. This year E3 will be massive for PES with new screens videos and announcements. Adam from WENB hinted on the forums what to expect from E3 saying the following.

 E3 is going to be huge for PES by the way, it's going to be an explosion of information. The video will wow you, but the announcements regarding features will make everyone here feel really good... I actually think the visuals will impress a lot of people when they see it. Not just the look of the players, but the look of everything going on while you play

 E3 will be held between June 7-9 so stay tuned as we will be keeping you all up to date. Until then we will leave you with some hints again from WENB main man Adam.

PES2012 is so stable right now, from quick FK's to advantage rule, to physicality & collision detection, to brand new reworked ball physics. 

You'll be happier once E3 hits. New video, new details, new pictures, and gameplay impressions.Got beta testing news.

Not going to say anything yet, I hope they announce at E3, but everyone will be buzzing!

Taking Apart The PES 2012 Video

Every year before Konami release a Gameplay video we always get videos that will feature the game being played in the background. Whether its from a studio tour of Konami like last year for PES 2011 or like this year with the Seabass video we got yesterday.

I have taken the video released yesterday by Konami and used just the parts that Seabass and the TV behind him are present and zoomed in on the TV to get a bigger picture. The quality isn't brilliant and I am no master in editing but I done my best and I think it really shows how much of a improvement PES 2012 Gameplay is over PES 2011. It seems to move so smoothly and fluidly.

Here is the video and don't forget to watch in HD to help with the quality a little.

Also at the same time as uploading mine Rage06 from Twitter and WENB forums has uploaded his work (here)

Rage06 also made a second video which just features Gameplay elements taken from the video but not the ones from Widecam or behind Seabass. Here is his video below.

Great work as always by the community. If you have made any videos or .gif files from the footage released yesterday then pop a link to your work in the comments and I shall put them in a post.

“For me, the ultimate aim in the ongoing PES series is to match what people see when they go to a match or watch a big game on TV with what they experience on their console,” explains Shingo ‘Seabass’ Takatsuka, the Creative Producer of the Pro Evolution Soccer series. “As such, in consultation with football fans across the globe, we have been working non-stop to isolate and determine how to make our game marry in with how real football is played. This is key to PES 2012, and key to providing the ultimate football experience within a console title.”

PES 2012 Announced - Detailed Video Released.

Let me start by Apologising for the delay in bringing you today's news and the PES2012 announcement. Blogger was down till the afternoon and I have also had work. Better late then never? Hope so.

So Konami have released there first video this afternoon with Seabass talking about new AI elements and other new features in PES 2012.

When you watch the video take note that some parts are PES 2011 footage and will tell you in the top right corner. Also I would recommend watching the video a few times as you will notice new things each time and the work done with PES 2012 so far will really shine.

Could Torres Be Back?

Yesterday on the Official Pro Evolution Soccer Facebook page there was the following message posted -

Dear PES-Fans, we are meeting Fernando Torres this week in London - and we want to ask him your questions! So what do you want to know from Torres? Christian, PES-Team

At the moment we are not sure what this means for PES 2012. But y would they want to speak to Torres? Could we see Torres return to the cover of PES after he appeared on the PES 2010 cover? This also could point towards Chelsea being licensed in this years game.

Nothing Official on this yet and we most likely wont get any news on this until closer to release.

PES 2012 Announcement SOON !

Jon Murphy tweeted just a few hours ago to let all us know that we can expect the PES 2012 announcement in the next few days..

PESKings is hoping that by the next few days Jon means this Friday. That is not confirmed to us but when we have more we will let you know.

If PES 2012 is not announced by Friday this week then as far as I can remember most PES games are announced on a Wednesday right? 18th May would look likely but in most people minds that is more than a few days.

Fingers crossed it is this week. Stay Tuned.
