truly one of the best sports games there is. The players move freely they try to get open. AI is challenging. IDK why they went away from this. "E sports " is truly the wrost in sports gaming. bring these back

This game was a great way to distract myself during the difficult Covid period, so regardless of its actual quality, I still give it a positive review.
That said, speaking about the game itself, it's both astonishing and worrying to realize that football video game simulation has essentially stalled at this title (ironically, the 2021 version has aged worse, even though it's 90% identical to this one).
The fluidity of the animations, the gameplay, the matches as a whole, the graphics—both in detail and overall impact—the structure of the Master League… everything has a consistency and functionality that often makes you overlook many of its flaws.
It's incredible how Konami squandered all this potential for that “thing” that I struggle to even call a video game...

Every pass, tackle, and goal feels deliberate—like real football. The flow is natural, the gameplay grounded. It’s not flashy, just pure, satisfying football at its core.

Honestly, PES 2020 has some really great moments. The gameplay feels super smooth, and the ball physics are on point...it genuinely feels like you’re playing real football. Every goal has that satisfying weight to it. But outside of matches, it gets a bit annoying. The menus are clunky, Master League feels outdated, and the lack of licenses is kind of a letdown. Still, when you're playing, it’s a lot of fun.

Its formula with smooth, realistic gameplay and fantastic visuals. The improved Master League mode adds depth, and the gameplay feels more dynamic and rewarding than ever. While missing some licenses can be a downside, the overall experience is still a top-tier football sim for fans who prioritize gameplay and realism.
Gameplay:
Refined, smooth gameplay with more realistic ball physics and player movements.
Mastery of dribbling and passing feels rewarding, with subtle touches that add depth.
Great balance between simulation and fun, making it accessible for both casual players and hardcore fans.
Graphics & Presentation:
Stunning player models and lifelike animations.
Improved lighting and stadium details create an immersive matchday atmosphere.
Commentary and crowd noise are solid, adding to the realism.
Game Modes:
Master League mode continues to improve, with new cutscenes and storylines for a more engaging career mode.
MyClub mode offers a fun, yet familiar, way to build your dream team.
Lacking some modes and depth compared to FIFA, but still solid.
Licensing Issues:
Missing some key licenses (like teams and leagues), which can break immersion for some fans.
However, PES 2020 still has strong partnerships with several clubs and leagues, like Juventus and the Spanish La Liga.
Verdict:
PES 2020 continues to deliver excellent gameplay and realism, making it one of the best football sims out there, even if it lacks the full licenses of its competitors.
