Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 Unlockables and Hints (PS3)

Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 is a video game in the Pro Evolution Soccer series by Konami. The game was officially announced on 18 June 2007. PES 2008 features a brand new intelligence system, called Teamvision, that adapts and reacts to players own gameplay styles to ensure that the computer-controlled opponents are always challenging and forcing the player to think and change their style of play to avoid being out-thought by the game.

It will learn counter attacks that target players' weaknesses and look to exploit any repetitive tactics players use. Defenders react better to danger, closing down the ball and charging at shots and the goalkeepers will hold shots that are closer to them as well. Teammates will make more intelligent runs into space and the close control has been sharpened to ensure quick and fluid passing and speedy attacks can be built.
