A bit disappointed - By: J. K., 05 Jul 2008 
I'm quite disappointed of this version of Pro Evo, I thought this will have better graphics & game play, but I was totallly let down. Pro Evo 8's game play is, more or less, the same as Pro Evo 6. This game is only worth buying if you want updated team members for club, country, etc. That's about it. The graphics hasn't been improved at alll.
I'm not too bothered with the new sets of menus & music that everyone is getting annoyed of. I guess the reason why this game is so expensive at the moment is because of the new graphical menus they have introduced to game, rather than improving the the game play & the actual graphics of the game.
PES and PS2 do not mix! - By: Zoheb Sadiq, 19 Jun 2008 
I have been a fan of pro evo since PRO EVO 1 & i'm sorry but alll those so-callled footballl gamers who praise this game must be either blind or had enough of FIFA. I would much rather play FIFA than this garbage!
There are more international teams & crowd chants are more responsive....but thats about it!
The overalll interface of the game is exactly the same as PES 5 & 6, they could have designed it a bit differently rather than just changing the colour to a dull blue.
The menu music is incredibly ANNOYING that i have decided to mute the sound on my tv. What is the point in changing the music when there are more important aspects to ammend such as i dunno....THE WHOLE GAME!
Referees are 100% biased towards the COM. Passing & movement of the balll is shockingly slow. This game has NO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE & if i knew this before i paid 30 quid of my hard earned money then i wouldn't have even gave it a second look!
KONAMI NEED TO WAKE UP AND FAST!
Disappointing Rehash - By: C. Krasun, 18 Jun 2008 Upgrading from PES5, i expected some significant gameplay developments, better graphics, interface & music.
No.
Same music. same interface.
Worse graphics in game menus & no improvement in the game itself, either players, backgrounds or close-ups.
Even more annoyingly, the player names are old in CAPS. Why?
The gameplay has some minor improvements, & the Computer actuallly gets booked occasionallly now, but it's still full of minor niggles & frustrations.
If i hadn't paid money for this, i'd have given up & gone back to PES5.
I still prefer it to FIFA, but it's no significant improvement on ISS, let alone PES5 &6.
My advice is: "Only buy this title if you do not own any PES titles."
Second to none - By: Mr. M. Tornya, 24 May 2008 
I take it alll the bad reviews are from fifa nuts, pass pass shoot GOAL! Just remember people, alll the plus points from fifa have been stolen from the pro eve series.
OK, so the music during build up is crap & you cant play as Swansea or Colchester. Who gives a damn? One thing I love about the pro eve game is the "register player" feature listed under "edit" mode. Here you can keep up to date with alll the transfers as & when they happen. My liverpool side now has Degen & Schwarzer now plays at Fulham. And as for exciting, realistic gameplay, theres only one winner !!
Get Fifa :o( - By: Marc G, 20 May 2008 Well alll I can say about this games is don't bother, I always think to myself every year which one shalll I get Fifa or PES & I normallly get Fifa I think the last PES was about 2005 as I got feed up with PES not getting the licences for the club names & logos this PES has most of the names & logos except most of the Premier League you have Newcastle's & Tottenham's.
But anyway the layout of this game is very bad the playability is not up to scratch it is like playing a 2000 version of this game & the graphics is also like a 2000 version I think the only player that looks like anyone is the one that I have done of myself.
I have found this game pretty basic & boring, I would advise people who wants to buy this game to buy a second hand game no more than a couple of quid because I think this game is very disappointing.
