This year's version is far more fleshed out, far more navigable than in previous games, giving season players ideas of new moves to incorporate into play, but more importantly, it offers new players a place to learn the ins and outs of soccer. Though I feel confident I can beat any of my American friends here at IGN, I still check out the Training Mode every season.

Old-time give-and-goes still function perfectly, varying pressure on the analog sticks initiates off-speed dribbles, and a full 360 spin on the right analog actuates the fancy Marseille Roulette, among other moves. Improving upon last year's well-polished title, WE8 adds in new moves, dribbling skills and techniques that, when used with proper timing and skill, will elate you and surprise your opponent. It's like every time I'm ready to evolve as a player, the game has more for me. We're not talking about rocket science here, but somehow this soccer game feels simultaneously like high-tech science and masterful art.

Even though I've been playing it for years, TYO's series continues to stun me with its incredible depth and variety.

This year's effort once again focuses on improving AI, adding and refining control and technique, and bettering all the little things, from free kicks and throw-ins to penalty kicks. Whether you're a Brit in Bristol watching league play or a Yank in New York viewing Major League Soccer, Konami has masterfully incorporated realism and skill into its series like none other. The Winning Eleven series' consistent accomplishment over the years has been the developer's ability to pay attention to the nature of the sport and deliver the game in its purest form. This year, Winning Eleven 8 offers even deeper core gameplay, while broadening in scope, giving long-time fans the names, officially leagues, the feature sets, and moves they've been clamoring for. Alongside the top-notch gameplay highlighted in this year's superb Master League is a slew of improvements - from the acquisition of official big-league licenses to a more operational front-end, to on-screen referees to the improved Training mode. The endless layers of tactical play, smart AI and the unbeatable one-on-one matches outweighed the clunky menu systems and lack of official teams or players. Developer Konami TYO was always old-fashioned in presentation, yet the strength of its gameplay and graphics always won out. This year proves to be a different one for Konami. EA might have the licenses, but it still doesn't come close in gameplay. As it's transformed over the years, from the great, bare-bones ISS to the disappointing ESPN MLS Extra Time (here in the US) to the brilliant Winning Eleven 8, Konami's series has brought the most realistic, deep and strategic soccer game to a home system, full stop. Ever since International Superstar Soccer appeared on Nintendo 64, I've been able to relive my high school and college days playing soccer in a fashion that's easier on my lungs.
