PES 2010 to drop online IDs

Konami promises 'unforgettable online experience,' says report
Konami's set to ditch the much-hated Konami online IDs for Pro Evolution Soccer 2010.

That's according to a report on French site Gamekyo, which claims to have heard PES 2010's online plans from Konami itself.

PES 2010 online games will now be hosted directly on PSN and Xbox Live servers, it claims, hopefully guaranteeing a lag-free experience a far cry from the often troublesome network bouts of the last two PES entries.

Apparently Konami promises an "unforgettable experience" with PES 2010's online game, with no need to arse around registering multiple usernames and network IDs. Thank Christ.

We've left a message with Konami's UK outfit.

Good!!!

Although is this just another Konami politician's-promise? I'd much rather they concentrated on the gameplay in general and then the master league, although lag-free online would be 3rd on my priority list.

My previous experiences with Konami online games have been 'unforgettable'. And not in a good way.

Good that they are dropping online konami id's, I cant begin to tell how maddening it was after making my psn profile to have to make a konami one for metal gear online which had it's own share of problems.

I still cant remember my konami id and pass and if I knew how boring MGO was I wouldnt have bothered.

Oh F**k, I just set mine up recently, and what a pain in the ass. Good riddance to that S**t.

they NEED to sort out the angles on the game, the shooting physics and then the online. and why why why do the footballers keep shooting with the wrong foot - utter garbage, and it looks so stupid

I am still trying to figure why oh the F**k why did they mess with the shooting last time around. That same shooting animation that kicks in is so Annoying. I have played the game loads, and there are other new animations for shots, but instead the game uses the same one over and over and over. There is a Fairly nifty shot from Rooney in PES 2009, but you would have to play for hours and hours to see it. If they would have used that as the default shot option then it wouldn't have been so bad. Instead they went with one that is so awkward. ffs Everything should stop until they sort this out, world hunger can wait, MJ's memorial can wait, it's started, WTF!
