Konami has released 4 new screens from Pro Evolution Soccer 7/2008 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 showing Cristiano Ronaldo.
"Portuguese midfield maestro to be the European face of Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH's new Pro Evolution Soccer title
Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH has announced that Cristiano Ronaldo will be the pan-European face of its forthcoming PES 2008 – the latest incarnation of the multi-million-selling Pro Evolution Soccer series.
Midfielder Ronaldo is regarded as one of the most exciting talents of the modern game, and the 22-year-old is a permanent fixture in the Portuguese national squad. His incredible ball control and trademark skills have seen him receive countless awards, including both the PFA's 2007 Player and Young Player of the Year awards. As part of the deal, Cristiano Ronaldo will appear on the packaging and point-of-sale materials for Konami's PAL versions of PES 2008, alongside specially selected local talent, details of which will be released at a later date.
The Ronaldo deal comes as Konami gears up for the launch of PES 2008 this Autumn. Due for release for PLAYSTATION®3, Xbox 360, PC-DVD, PlayStation®2, PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) and Nintendo DS, the new game boasts the revolutionary Teamvision AI system, a proprietary element that actively monitors the player's onscreen movements and adapts accordingly, forcing the player to consider their own strategic play more carefully. Other new additions include amazing attention to aesthetic detail as faces contort and shirts crease during a match, extensive Edit modes in all Next Generation versions, and closer control than ever before."
