NJ5 said: Well, it turns out that PES 2008 is really crappy on the PS3... Online play is practically unplayable and there are also slowdowns during offline play.
People are pretty pissed off. Konami will issue a patch, but it's unknown when.

So far only the Pro-G review has complained about framerate problems with the ps3 version of PES08. The Eurogamer review praised the game for it's new ball phsyics and didn't metion any slowdown at all. They did mention that the ball felt weightier and was somewhat harder to maneuver, so maybe the other reviewer got that confused with slowdown?
From the Eurogamer review:
The ball feels considerably weightier this year, players more solid and more combative. From the instant you kick off, you'll feel the difference. No longer does the ball skid puck-like over the surface, but bobbles, floats and rolls with greater realism than ever before. Long shots are no longer laser-guided missiles but more akin to real football, where balance, space, time and distance play a greater role when firing at goal. It takes some getting used to, but after a few hours, the weightier ball physics begin to feel natural and satisfying, almost like watching a real, modern-day pigskin flying around a stadium.
