Maybe we're old, but 4, 5 and 6 - those were the PES days. The 2008 edition deserves its low position in this chart for that hideous cover with Michael Owen and Cristiano Ronaldo looking like they're starring on a footballing version of Babestation.Īnyone remember how hard Pro Evo 5 was? Man, the game had John Terry and Thierry Henry on the front cover and you had to be as good as both if you wanted to get anywhere. Interesting to see the three original releases all languishing in the bottom half of this list alongside 2019's edition, which has not fared well in the eyes of fans. It was also possibly the peak of the dodgy player names in unlicensed teams (we're looking at you Von Mistelroum), maybe that's just our opinion though. It's got the intimidating grimace of Pierluigi Collina on the front cover and featured gameplay that blew our tiny minds. Now, they've gone wrong already you see, because Pro Evolution Soccer 3 is one of the greatest football games ever made and we won't be swayed. Talking of the halcyon days, the folks over at Ranker have made a list of the greatest Pro Evolution Soccer games of all time.ĩ.
