Pro Evolution Soccer 5 scores on PSP™ (PlayStation®Portable)
Play at home or away as Konami of Europe’s seminal
Konami of Europe has announced a version of its much anticipated Pro Evolution Soccer 5 will be released for the PSPTM this autumn.
Due for release on PlayStation 2, Xbox and PC-DVD in Q4, the PSPTM version of Pro Evolution Soccer 5 will feature the utter realism, intuitive play and fast-paced action of the ever-popular series. The handheld version will also be almost identical in terms of available clubs and international sides, with 57 national sides lining up alongside 136 club teams.
Pro Evolution Soccer 5 also benefits from a number of exclusive features designed to showcase the PSPTM's capabilities. The highly-competitive multi-player aspects of the game are highlighted using the hardware's wireless systems. Using this, players within a certain network radius can challenge rival Pro Evolution Soccer 5 fans to games, with all data related to match results - goals for, goals against, wins, etc - retained in a running tally.
Solo players can also hone their skills within six different leagues and a host of cup tournaments, and the PSPTM game can also be linked to the PlayStation 2 version of Pro Evolution Soccer 5 for data exchange. Using this, players can import teams they have created within the PlayStation 2 game for use against friends on their PSPTM, or swap teams with other PSPTM users.
