in terms of Pro evo - as many stated this came out in february for Europe, this is 3 months before the end of the season in Uk and clearly the wrong time to be releasing a football game. Half of the modes were missing, there was no kit editing functionality, the players database was out of date but it did it's job in terms of promoting the new gameplay engine, getting a good reputation and setting itself up for the big release this year.
it was heavily rumoured that Ubisoft dumped the Red Steeel 2 project, moved location and started again - probably when they realised a cheap cash in wasn't gonna cut it so this is the quiet before the storm.
