Heading arguably needs the most work, though - players are still rooted to the spot under the arc of goal kicks and it's too easy to lose 1-0 to the first corner you concede.
Relative player speeds still feel a bit unrealistic and the physical side of the game - while a great improvement - is nowhere near as developed as it is in FIFA. These are strong fundamentals, then, although there are other areas that could still do with work. (The slide tackle might as well be called The Yellow Card Button, and is all but forgotten except in desperate circumstances.) It's imagination versus patience and composure, as the player on the attack drops his shoulder or waits for supporting runs (or initiates them with team-mate controls) and the defender waits for a good moment to stick out a foot or uses a second defender to directly press the ball. The onus is then on the attacker to go past you, either using the close-control buttons (or trying for a cheeky nutmeg) or dragging you out of position and exploiting that space. This means that you tend to defend by switching to an appropriate player and then staying goal-side of the man in possession, managing the distance between you with the analogue stick. One of the biggest changes comes in defence, where PES has now joined FIFA in switching from pressing to containment as the primary means of holding off the opposition.

A new controlled shot and driven 'Knuckle' shot gives you more attacking options as well.

You can put your foot on it and perform quick and easy little rollovers to keep control in tight spaces, you can flick it up and distribute it or knock it over a defender's head if he's right behind you, and you can experiment with fully manual passes and shots. You can do much more with the ball, too, and Konami has slowed the game down to emphasise this. Passes along the ground are fast and accurate, there are driven and floated aerial passes, and a good first touch is down to a timely stab of the right trigger, injecting a bit of skill into receiving the ball. This year's instalment gives you a much more responsive, consistent and productive range of basic controls, too. At a basic level, it's as though all the dangling threads of unfinished programming have been knitted together into something approximating the actual sport. Players are much less likely to ignore the ball as it glides past them within easy reach than they were in PES 20, and somebody's finally introduced the ball to Sir Isaac Newton, so it no longer behaves as though it's weaving through a cluster of dancing singularities, subject to random stabs of acceleration. The first thing you notice is what you don't notice. On the scale of dramatic football comebacks it's not quite up there with That Night in Barcelona (© Clive Tyldesley) or The Miracle of Istanbul, but it surely comes close. Wake up, everyone! With PES 2013, Konami has finally pulled off the excellent game it's been threatening to release for the last couple of years.
