Winning Eleven is No More

Today Konami confirmed to IGN that the franchise formerly titled Winning Eleven Soccer in the United States will now be known as Pro Evolution Soccer 2008. This in no way affects the title in Europe where it will stay known as Pro Evolution Soccer.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 is scheduled to ship on March 11, 2008.

1.1 - "What do Europeans think..."
Europeans don't need to "think" cause we all know what the word soccer means...
Who cares if it's called Football or Soccer ? isn't it the same sport ?

Roger out.

Not alot, its still the best football game out there.

Also Pro Evo Scoccer sounds better than Pro Evo Football.

Still i fail to see why american football is called football as you only use you feet to kick the ball a few times a game. Surly they could have come up with a mroe suitable name. Like Stop-Start ball or something

I would buy it.
Get the code right Konami, not the name.

I was looking forward for "Wining Eleven 11", that would've been so cool but I guess Konami don't agree.
