ECTS 2003: Pro Evo 3 PC confirmation

After implying yesterday that Pro Evo 3 on the PC was less than a dead cert and telling us to watch out for their ECTS press announcement, we finally got hold of the disc this morning and discovered all the supposedly unconfirmed details waiting for us in black and white. We can certainly see how this press release became the various news items we’ve read, so we’re guessing it also made an appearance at Games Connection in Leipzig.

Obviously there were no shots (or you’d be looking at them right now) and the game was decidedly absent from the Konami stand here at ECTS (which was very nice regardless - we like air conditioning and freshly squeezed orange juice), but the release is more specific than we expected - it does say November, it does say it’s underway at KCET right now, and it does say that we can expect to see everything from the PS2 version - including the new Shop and four-division Master League - and then some. However there is no mention of online multiplayer, just "multiplayer" – boo! Hiss! The referee’s a wanker!
