SAMPLE CUSTOMER REVIEWS –


1)  NBA 2K15 is a great all-around product hampered by server problems. - NBA 2K15 is an impressive all-around product. There is a ton of content within, a lot of work has been done to the various modes, and gameplay and presentation remain strong. It's unfortunate then that once again 2K is plagued by server-related issues and with them having created what is largely an "always-online" game it's continued reason for concern.

MyCareer - Still my personal favorite mode in the game, it's compelling even though the story is silly, you're forced to be a guy who's a jackass, and the voice acting is atrocious. I still keep going back to it regardless. This time around the story is based on being an undrafted free agent fighting for a spot on the rosters and working your way up in the league. Conceptually it's strong but also makes you think they went this way because your player starts lower rated and with less playing time so you'll want to spend money on VC to compensate. Having a practice gym to shoot in and the new way of upgrading attributes are positive changes.

Face Scan - This is the most infuriating feature I've ever attempted to use in a sports game and after nearly an hour of trying to complete it I've just given up. It has worked for some people, so it's not "broken" necessarily, but it hasn't worked well (see all the alien looking scans out there) or at all for many others. Considering some bought a camera just for this purpose or had it as their most anticipated feature of the game this year, that's a huge problem.

MyPark - This is a great concept for online but the servers and other issues (like standing around in "Got Next" and even getting stuck there and having to restart the game completely) makes it a rough experience for now. It has a lot of potential though.

MyGM and MyLeague - Good options for fans of franchise modes. MyLeague is all offline so the servers can't impact it. MyGM like MyCareer has the VC ties to the server so a connection is required to make any progress.

MyTeam - The servers for MyTeam have been down almost completely since release. Some have squeezed in at times but also found their progress completely wiped out after server crashes.

Gameplay/Presentation - Nothing too dramatic in limited standard games so far different from last year. It's still top of its class in both regards in the genre, though commentary has lagged a bit and isn't improved over last year (especially since Steve Kerr is still in the booth). A new shot meter has gotten mostly positive response from the community.

Reduction of VC - One of the big takeaways from NBA 2K14 for 2K was they had to draw back on their invasive implementation of VC. So there's now the MyLeague mode which doesn't involve it and the pressure in other areas to spend money just to play the way you want has been reduced. Still VC is the majority of the game is "always-online" and may be the culprit behind much of the server issues. Consider just how often the servers are pinged by millions of people earning and spending VC constantly.

Right now though it would be difficult to give a flat out recommendation for this game. Until the server situation clears up, which with 2K14 never completely happened so it's not something that should just be assumed will take place soon or guaranteed to happen at all, it's a great game that isn't always available for you to play when and how you want - and that's what makes it most frustrating. That great game is just out of reach.

*Should the server situation improve I'll update the review with details and a new rating. It's a 4-5 star game if it would be working properly.

1) Flower is a great game that everyone should play - "Flower" on PS4 is the same great, beautiful, meditative game is was on PS3, only better looking and playing, now presented in 1080p/60fps and with more responsive motion controls thanks to the Dualshock 4. There are six or so levels (not including a brilliant credit sequence), none running more than ~30 minutes each depending on how quick or slow you are. You traverse the large open landscapes as a flower pedal floating in the wind, collecting more pedals by blooming other flowers. It's not played for high scores or unlockables, and it's not designed merely for kids, but for all ages. People who don't typically play or like games will like this one. It's the type of game experience you let wash over you. You sit back, let the beautiful music play on your ears, and the colorful sweeping visuals on your imagination. This is a great game.

2) They say simplicity is genius... - Flower is an absolutely gorgeous game that my wife and I both enjoyed a lot. There is an emotional depth to this game that I have rarely experienced. Between the music, the sound effects, and the graphics, the experience is wonderful. The graphics are really nice, and the controls are super simple.

You'll just have to play Flower to feel the experience.

1) You'll Love It - I got DriveClub on 12/6 so my experience with it has been a lot different than those who played it at launch. I created a club right of the bat and have had online races and completed challenges over the network without issues. I've read that it still isn't working perfectly for all players, but the problems are much, much less prevalent.

The driving experience itself is right up my alley. I'm a player who has never been able to get really into simulation racers, as I always want to have a little more fun than real-life physics allows. DriveClub provides that realism aspect in the visual fidelity and the environmental effects, but the handling itself is still arcadey enough to have the fun factor.

The visuals in this game are truly something we've never seen before. The sound and sights as you're racing downhill are enough to make your heart race- the sense of speed here is unmatched. Weather was just added to the game (http://a.pomf.se/dwgknv.gif) and it's a whole additional element to the race experience. Heavy rain at night obscures your vision in the cockpit & dashboard views, with rain droplets moving around the wildshield appropriately with the force of the car. The wiper blades leave mild streaks behind as they push the rain away, just as in real life. Make sure you download the latest patch to take advantage of this highlight of the game.

2) A Gorgeous and Symphonic Meditation I only play single player, in car games. Sometimes multi-player, but my heart is with single player.

So. As such, this game delivers in a number of Spades.

It is beautiful, you can control weather and time, and from the get-go you have access to a crap-load of tracks.

They allowed a type of openness that lets you use the same car to explore numerous environments, or, in one environment to explore numerous cars. And at the same time explore that same environment at different times of day and with different weather.

This sort of flexibility is part of why this game is so lovely.

You say, I want to drive *this* car in *this* environment, with *this* weather at *this* time of day.

And this thing delivers in a way that Gran Turismo, Forza, and Horizon, do not. Horizon 2 meets that to a similar degree-- only it's not nearly as pretty or realistic, it does not sound as good, and it has different physics.

If you want a meditative experience where you get behind the wheel and in the seat of a beautiful car, and you get to drive it in a place that is at the time you want it and where you want it, and sounds like you're in that place-- this game hits it the best, of all of them, at this time.

We can go to the others for meditation too, and we do-- but I always come back to this game, also.

I turn the music off, and it lets me. It has numerous, gorgeous camera views while you're driving: everything from a realistic hood to a "post-steering wheel" version that is more similar to driving the real car. And the sounds are recorded by professional audio engineers, not like this jokers at Forza who put reverb on everything. And as we know Gran Turismo is hit-and-miss with sounds.

So the sound recording is the best of any driving game on console. You have inside recordings and outside, and they were recorded dry, not like the Forza people who continue to record their samples with reverberation because they're recording in a closed space. Foolish. Thank God for Drive Club.

And the weather, tires, all that sounds great.

The cars drive great, only problem they seem to all be like European and there are no classics like Muscle. I actually question whether the restricted physics model would even allow a more "lugubrious" car such as something with floppy suspension. Every car on here is tight, but they're all modern-- another failing of this title, but then again-- you're just in a modern museum, deal with it/etc.

The game has a 'look ahead' feature that you can turn off, it's not unlike that used in Shift 2. Makes the driving much more realistic, but at first you'll be turning too soon, if you're used to Forza and Gran Turismo. Still, I think it's a wonderful feature and adds to the ease with which we can actually drive and race, feel the suspension, feel the tires' grip, hear it, and all through using a controller.

I could go on, but another thing is that the steering depiction is remarkably realistic, even in real-time.

And when you're racing and those cars are in front of you, there's an odd symphony going on where you don't care if you're 7th. You're in a beautiful space in a gorgeous piece of kit, and you're getting to experience this tool/museum in such a way that you are buoyed by it's art.

1) The Next Generation Soccer Videogame. Period. - I have been a follower of PES since it was only Konami and all they were doing was Winning Eleven. At that time I used to live in Europe, more than 15 years ago. I still remember playing Winning Eleven 4, which was re-released in Europe under the name of ISS Pro Evolution. Graphics looked like a joke compared to the fancier FIFA's, but the game-play was always, always light years ahead. And so on during the following years. ISS became PES, and it was always my choice for soccer gaming on PlayStation. I have been a follower of their legacy for almost 20 years, back when only Winning Eleven was available and I had to download the Japanese version from the web and burn it onto a CD for my PlayStation 1 and navigate through the Japanese-only menu. Since then, I have probably played over 10,000 matches by myself or with my friends throughout the whole series. Just to let you understand how a hardcore of fan I have been.

Now, back to our days. Last year PES (2014) was terrible, everybody knows that. Konami screwed us and they were sorry. This year, after buying the PS4, I started having that feeling -I don't know why- that this year's PES was going to be different, because I know that Japanese people might do a mistake once but they won't repeat it. They will actually surprise you back. After buying the game, downloading the mega update pack (1.3GB) and configuring all my favorite settings for the first game (I recommend setting up the speed of the game to the maximum and using the analog arrows to control the game, not the 360 stick), I sat down and waited to be amazed.

I am still in shock of how good of a video-game they made it. I just can't make-up to that feeling. It looks and feels extremely neat, and the game-play it is just SUPERB. There is no other way to put it. I can spend hours writing how this year's PES is fantastic, but do yourself a favor and go get it and have a wonderful time playing it. If you are a looking for a video-game with all the licenses for naming teams and championships and with all the fancy looking boys and jerseys but with a Pac-Man style game-play, get FIFA and be one of many. But if you truly love soccer and you can't live without it and you want a realistic, heart-beating gameplay within an over-the-edge soccer simulation, you will find your happiness into this.

All I can say is that, given my experience with the Konami series, this is the best PES they have ever done. And, simply put, the most outstanding soccer video-game ever made. Kudos to the whole Konami team, and THANK YOU for FINALLY adding live updates of rosters and names and teams and everything else.

2) Solid contender to FIFA15 - 1st, please do not feel offended if you like FIFA15 better. This review is based solely on my personal opinion. EA game is a complex and fine product. It has pros and cons. I am just giving my personal point of view. I own both games (PS4) and I've been playing FIFA for more than a decade.

Let's get into business. Konami did a great job!

Gameplay:
Pro Evolution Soccer provides the most amazing football gameplay that you may get on consoles at the time of my review. Passes are precise, dribbling is magnificent (without having to get a Phd on that) and the pace is just right. This is, in my opinion, the closest football (soccer) experience you can get on consoles right now. You won't see players running all over the pitch (online or offline mode) like the bionic man. You won't see kickoff glitches. You won't see perfectly insane Through Ball Passes.

Players appearance:
They look very, very real! James looks like James. Same goes for Ronaldo, even Messi. I read online that Konami engineers render the facial attributes in a more manual fashion way while FIFA engineers scanned players faces. The result? Players look more real on Konami's game.

myClub (PES version of UT)
No more coins, lol. You want a better player on your team? You will have to "hire an agent", he will do his best, and then you bet your chances to a spinning roulette with several players (hidden, of course). Once stopped, you will open (based on the position it stopped at) whatever player is there and then is yours. This fixes the unbalanced issue with online teams, as is less likely that you will find a "super team" online as your next opponent.

Licenses
Konami does not have the "monetary muscle" to exercise and pay royalties to major FIFA leagues and teams. So if you don't mind playing with "Romadino" instead of "Ronaldinho", you will be fine. I personally believe that the better gameplay compensates for that, but it is a personal opinion. If you are one of those who really need play with your favorite team and its absent from PES2015, you may be better getting FIFA's game instead.

Overall (If you don't care about FIFA licenses) this is a better proposition. Also, if you prefer a less arcade type of game, you will like this game better.I no longer enjoy playing FIFA online, it's very frustrating. I think that FIFA15 (online and gameply) is broken beyond repair.

Feel free to comment or ask me about differences between both games (FIFA15 and PES2015, PS4) I will do my best to answer,.
