Pro Evolution Soccer 2013 confirmed
PES 2013 out this autumn on multiple platforms including PS2 and PSP; no Vita or Wii U versions coming.
The Pro Evolution Soccer franchise will be kicking off again this year, Konami announced today. Though the firm would only confirm an autumn release window, an October release in Europe is to be expected; for as long as the series has been around, Konami has never failed to ship a Pro Evolution soccer game in that month.
The Japanese publisher has promised a raft of AI and control improvements, as it did in 2011, 2010, and 2009, as well as in 2007 and 2005.
Konami's PES European team leader Jon Murphy was unconcerned about apparent personnel changes behind the scenes, saying, "Fresh faces within the development team and some very exciting ideas will breathe new life into the PES series."
Konami has also promised steps forward in the areas of audio and social networking. The game's audio effects "are being tied closer to the on-field action," the firm said. It also confirmed it is planning an extension to the myPES application for Facebook, which will "extend the connectivity and communication between Facebook-using PES fans."
The game is due for release this autumn for the PS3, Xbox 360, PC, PS2, PSP, 3DS, and Wii, the firm said. No mention was made of a version for Sony's Vita handheld or Nintendo's upcoming Wii U.

Wen is it releasing for Ps2 nd Psp ?anyone hv any idea ?
What the??? PS2?? THIS IS AWESOME!! X'D Thankyou Konami..

I go definitely for PES!
wow that's amazing i didn't play master league in pes 2012 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
u missed a lot
wawwww
I am a fan of bundes liga but i cant enjoy its teams in PES
PES if for real football fans, FIFA is some arcade garbage where the same move works all the time.
I love pes
Why Don't they include German teams in it
Prince2013XD i was wondering about the same thing
PS2.... Really? PS2, you scary!!!
PES is awesome but wow they still make it for PS2?!
PES absolutly, :D
Well if Fifa 13 comes out for the Wii U then Pes 13 will not be missed at all. Infact they will probably release Pes 13 on the Wii U March/April 2013. Konami have a thing about releasing Pes games late to Nintendo platforms.
pes is the best
People still play PES?
PES 2013 out this autumn on multiple platforms including PS2 and PSP; no Vita or Wii U versions coming. I am reading this right, it says PS2?
PES 2012 was bad and I hope to be PES 2013 a good
prince_2009 come on man play it again its awsome
smart move...they are still aiming for old fans
PES is still doing good.
Where i live, the game shop doesn't have a section for PS2 games anymore (the oldest stuff there would be the used launch games for this generation). Wonder what gain does Konami get for making it for the PS2(other than those unable to afford new gen consoles)? Maybe for people collecting all copies of PES, but that's just some opinion.
but more importantly KONAMI wheres our contra lol
Holly cow ps2 is still kicking ass
iiii.. don.t do shi»»»»... pes is a great game...but pes 12...daaaaaa... go back a little to pes 11 and do a perfect game...
I'm a MU fan.
it think it is funny and awesome that games are still comin out for PS2
Awesome, the PS2 is still beast!
the ps2 version will bebetter than the Wii version
Viva PS2!
Hot damn!, I can play this on my PlayStation 2!
