Yeah, when PES comes out I'll be getting is straight away and I'll tell you if it's worth the $60.
Usually I am never disappointed in PES but a lot of people hate having unlicensed teams -- It doesn't bother me as it's pretty easily fixed.
Generally it comes with Liverpool and United plus another "big" club but I'm not sure which ones they're going for this year.  I would love for them to add Arsenal but I don't think it will happen.
All of the players have the same names and the players mostly look exactly like the real life person.  Andrey Arshavin looks uncanny in PES2009.
Fifa only just introduced their 360 dribbling this year (which is the one a only good improvement from 2009, in my opinion) but PES have had it for about three years now.  In the old Fifas, the players used to run on invisible tracks basically, but "360 dribbling" has always been the case for PES.
I would like the new PES to be a little friendlier on the eye with the menu graphics and music (it's always pretty lackluster) but once again, it's no real major issue.
I'm looking forward to its release, as I was with Fifa -- Hopefully I'm not too disappointed this time around.
Does anybody know the release date for PES2010?
