Brett from Lazygamer has had some hands on time with PES 2011... here's his take on it

"I was lucky enough to receive an invite to the Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 Master League Online beta.

It’s not until you scan down the page and read the accompanying headline that you might - if you are a videogamer - find your interest being piqued:

'Video's Killed the Brain Cells'

As it transpires the story, written by Richard Godwin, is a small slice of praise for Del Rey’s song - ‘Video Games’, we are told, is a ‘heartbreaking ballad’ and a ‘perfect modern pop song, as authentic as they come. It takes an ancient theme (unrequited love) and puts it in a contemporary context (the object of her love keeps ignoring her, retreating into video games).

‘Video Games’ really is a lovely track, and one that deserves to be heard if you haven’t heard it already.
