That really does look slick. Whilst i don't have physical collection, I spent a few hours the other week making custom sleeves for my installed editions of PES in my Steam library to make things a bit more presentable.
I have to say from what i've been playing of WE7/PES 3 this week - That game IS bloody hard, But not in a cheap BS way though. It's just challenging and the emphasis is on paitence and build up. You can't play it the same way you play subsequent editions with their quality of life changes such as simply holding down
to pass to further away players.I'm not sure exactly what you mean by manage to run PES 2008, If you having issues starting it, Can you be more specific?
Haha not at all. I was inspired to make that meme thanks to Twitter user Shale's post about a PS2 memory card he ordered off of ebay that still contained some strangers PES 4 replays, Which he subsequently uploaded in the thread.
Great, you have tempted me to start a master league, although I have winning eleven 2008 it has a more difficult level, it is called superstar, good matches and norwich I beat you very well.
How do you have PES games pre-2015 on steam library? IIRC the first physical copy that "forced" me to install steam was PES 2015.That really does look slick.

More relevant to me though, PES 2012 is really difficult on the highest setting, But not for the reasons i mentioned above.
The game's main issue is it's dribbling and defending on higher difficulties. It's the only let down for me with this edition. Basically, The ball sticks to the CPU's feet and it's IMPOSSIBLE to tackle them, Even if you know you timed it right and the animation of you defender made sense, The attacker simply turns into a poltergeist and they just pass through you. They do this hyper speed, Ninja dribbling bull shit where the games generally good inertia just goes out the window in favour of attacking mindlessness.
Your defenders can't chill, Start running around like uncontrollable headless chickens that leaves you wrestling control back from the game and then the CPU does what i like to call the "magic through-ball" or "magic bullet" (Which I've been flirting with in reference to JFK) where the context of the play maker's position makes no sense, Yet they ping this through pass anyway travels like a speeding bullet, whizzes past a defender that could stop it if they simply stick a leg out if they was a real person and it lands in the lap of a goal side striker.
It's not challenging, IT's not plausible and simply not fun, You know you're being conned by the game. It brings back traumatising memories of the unplayable PES 2019. So i dropped the difficulty down to professional and with the automatic Tournament mode difficulty boost you get anyway, The game has the perfect balance. So yeah, A lot of the time, The highest difficulties don't necessarily mean their the most realistic or even the most reasonably challenging either. It's like going to the funfair & trying to throw rings on an object it will literally never fit around - Completley rigged.

I got the Euro Patch from here, It's not exactly a patch per se, It's more this patch for 08/09 has the accurate Euro 2008 squads, Kits and stadiums inside of it.
https://www.virtuared.com/foro/viewtopic.php?f=96&t=2393
As for PES 2012, The Euro 2012 patch is here - https://www.pesnewupdate.com/2019/08/pes-2012-peseditcom-2012-euro-2012-patch-add-on.html
That link also contains the PESEdit Patch 3.4 which contains the 11/12 season but with a few transfers for the upcoming season.

It sounds silly but to me, There's something cathartic about exploring someones memory card, knowing that a living soul played this game, Enjoyed this goal so much that he captured it & recorded it to his card, But it goes nowhere until someone else picks it up presumably 15 years later. It's like unearthing artefacts, a memoir or graffiti left left by someone from a different era. "I was here..". What was that persons hopes and dreams in 2004? Did he have a room full of buddies when he scored it, Where they gonna hang out at the park or go to the bar afterwards, Where are they now? The world has moved on yet there is a tiny contingent of us who give enough of a damn about these hold games to have found relevance in his replays and it becomes anecdotal.
These games really are like time capsules. Imagine the emotion the original owner would experience if he could watch those goals back one last time and he's instantly transported back to his bedroom as a youngster when life was good before the burden and responsibility of being an adult poleaxes you.
Any way, Quarter Final time in Euro 2012. We had seductive summery weather in England this week and if everything was normal we'd be tripping over ourselves preparing for the Euro 2020 festivities just around the corner, Running those "It's coming home" meme's into the god damn ground... It actually makes me really sad. A good summer tournament is what we all really look forward to, Summer has a scent and it's complimented by International ecstasy and agony. So playing and editing this episode down this week has been really enjoyable and therapeutic. As usual, The typical couldn't make it up drama of football festivals encapsulated brilliantly in the best footballing franchise of all time.
We are down to the last 8 as underdogs Greece & Czech Republic challenge favourites Netherlands & Portugal, Italy & France collide in a rematch of the 2006 World Cup Final and England take on European champions, Spain.
With default skin steam on bottom left corner there is a "+ add games".
Oh cool!! Does it keep statistic of play hours of the non-steam games when added? (i am greedy now!!
)
Ok, So PES 2008 had a bug with the settings exe at launch. The kitservers for that game fixed this. So when you download that virtuared patch and install it, It should fix that bug can you can set your resolution as normal.
Yeah, I had to use the kitserver config to force my own resoltion and ratio.
It does as long as you launch the game from Steam. But i usually launch from desktop though so my hours haven't been logged.Oh cool!! Does it keep statistic of play hours of the non-steam games when added? (i am greedy now!!
