I just finished playing the Winning Eleven 8 demo for PS2 and I sorta liked the game. The only problem I have with it is that I do not watch soccer, and I don't know much about it other than kicking the ball into the goal. Do you think someone who is not familiar with the sport will be able to really get into the game and enjoy it? I heard the price is $29.99 so that is nice, and I cannot get Xbox Live so the online play isn't a big deal to me.

So, with that said, should I get the game?
 
Winning 11 will teach you to love the game. Im dead serious. The training modes are incredible. If you think you might have any affinity for soccer whatsoever, buy it without hesitation. If you know deep down soccer just isnt your thing and even the greatest soccer game ever wouldnt float your boat, dont.
 
I won Winning Eleven 7 in a Konami sponsored contest here on CAG about a year ago (I think). I've only picked up the game once, but from what I played, it's pretty top quality. I'm just not into soccer.
 
Buy it so they keep bringing these games over to Xbiox. Basically its a great soccer game with graphics that are not as flashy but the best game play you will ever get. The computer players will learn how you play as the game goes on and will set up their defense/offense to match you. They even make mistakes... forget doing th esame moves over and over to score, it won't work - which is why people love this game.
 
I thought it was ok....does not support 16:9 mode...which is just pointless....all games should.

Anyways, I'm over soccer games now....just not my game. TOO slow, but I guess that is what soccer is.
 
I'm not really a soccer fan or anything...but Winning Eleven is the perfect sports game whether you're playing with a friend or against the AI.
 
I plan going pickup WE 8 $39.99 at BB this week with $5 off coupon in the mail along with (2) $9.99 games (limit 3) and Otogi 2 $29.99 then use $5 off $19.99 coupon to knock WE 8 down $29.99, (2) $9.99 for Free and Otigi 2 for $24.99 (all 4 games around $60)

I think myself is DEVIL ;)
 
i think u shud get it. from all the reviews that i've seen out there, i think it has gotten the most best ones. if u a soccer fa, i definetely recommend it.
 
I just ordered it off ebgames.com
It sucks though cause I have to wait 5-10 days for it since I'm such a cheapass to pay for expensive shipping :D
