Pro Evo 3 dated
Italian ref enlisted for box art
Konami today confirmed the official release date for the PS2's Pro Evolution Soccer 3, as well as revealing that Italian referee Pierluigi Collina, "arguably one of the most recognisable (and definitely the most terrifying) faces in football" has been signed for use on the official packaging of both the PC and PS2 versions of the eagerly awaited title.
The Japanese publisher's latest opus will be with us on October the 17th on the PS2, whilst PC gamers are promised they'll be getting their hands on it in time for the festive season.
"Pierluigi Collina sums up everything that is great about modern football and Pro Evolution Soccer 3," enthused Martin Schneider, Konami Europe's head marketing monkey. "He is an uncompromising, no nonsense figure who enjoys the respect of everybody in the game - from fans through to the world's most famous players and leading managers. With such a strong pedigree, we are naturally delighted that Mr Collina has agreed to front the packaging for a football game that shares so many of his traits. Pro Evolution Soccer 3 will be one of our key titles this year, and Mr Collina will help to extend aware of the game to a wider range of football fans."

Well there goes the one reason I might have bought a PS2 for. Must buy a joypad tho so sony will still get some of my cash.
Its not often a packshot for a game is scary. But this one is.
That morph-like ref (I can't remember his name, but someone here will) is a freak of nature.
Looks more akin to a packshot for a new vampire game.
AHHHHHHHH!! BUT THE GAMES THE BEST!

You're very sad!!!
Everyone using obsene language may as well be put down. There's no need for it really.
Anyway, I did have Pro Evo 2 had I've just got Pro Evo 3. To be honest I think that Pro Evo 2 plays better, I don't know if anyone feels the same. Saying that the Pro Evo series just blows apart the competition from the FIFA series ;-)
I reckon i can take you.
Name the place and time and im there dude.
fifa is only good because it is a licensed game so everyone loves it. fifa is a harder game because of pro evo is easy to score, on fifa i win about 5 - 0 but on pro evo i normally win about 10 - 0 so fifa is like real football and pro evo is a bit of fun.
merci
