I should be addicted to it by Friday, after I've bought it.
However, I'm currently addicted to Tony Hawk's Underground 2.

Well I'm addicted to Rome Total War right now, but I would have been giving Pro Evo 4 a good go, except it hasn't arrived yet. My brother pre-ordered it from Amazon and hurrah, they haven't even dispatched it yet. The bastards.

Amazon just can't cope with bulk orders.
I don't hold out much hope for me getting GTA:SA on time.

Aye.
They've already put the date back a little.
I might as well just cancel my order.
It'd be easier to book the day off work and get down to HMV for when it opens.

Have they? Bastards! I'll go and have a look now.
I'm away that weekend though, so I wouldn't get to play it. As long as it came on the Monday it would be allright I suppose.

I think they only put it back a couple of days.
Still, it's annoying as hell when they do that.
Same with dvd's.
I ordered Shaun of the Dead and Dawn of the Dead in a double pack. T'was cheaper.
DotD should've been released on the 8th.
Haven't got a bloody clue when it's going to arrive.
They've put that date back twice.

Anyone else get extremely pissed off by the number of times your strikers miss 1on1s with the keeper? I must be getting 1 goal from every 10 1on1s (excluding sneaky chip shots of course)

Yes, the keepers keep saving them.
I think the thing is that in the previous PES's you jsut had to tap it, because as soon as you filld the bar you just ballooned the ball over.
In 4, during a one on one situation you need at least half a bar so the stricker will lift the ball over the diving keeper.
Either that or fake the shot with that [] + X combo.
Still is a creat game though!

It is great But difficulty 3 is a lot easier than it was in PES3.

After the initial first few games, yes it is. Suppose that's why they put 6* in.

I haven't played it much, but my brother has, and what he's noticed, and what I did a bit when I played, is that the goalies not only tend to save your shots when 1 on 1 , but the ball then nearly always goes straight to another attacker. Saved shot - rebound to striker - goal. Time and time again.
The slowdown is abysmal though. Old Trafford or whatever it's called in the game, and corners = sloooooooow, stuttery play. Especially in the rain. Serves Man Utd right for having such a big ground.
Good game though. Miles ahead of that Fifa crap.

I've yet to see slow down. Not sure if I've played any games in Old Trafford yet...

I've never had any slowdown at all either, and I have payed at "Trad Brick". Seems some people get it, some don't.
Anyone want to know a cheat on how to win every game? Never used it msyelf, so I don't know if it actually works...

Are you playing in wide view, or whatever the most zoomed out view is?
Because with that view during corners there is noticable slow-down on some of the bigger grounds. And also some when it zooms onto the goalie when he goes to take a goal kick.
It can become quite atrocious, although only for a second or so. The last game had annoying pauses, this one has annoying flickers and slowdown.
I can't believe you haven't witnessed any slow down. It's usually just Man Utd fans who never see anything that's going on on the pitch.
