PCXBoxPlaystationNintendo
Konami today confirmed the European launch date of the 6th Pro Evo soccer game. PS2, Xbox 360 and PC versions will all be available on October 27th, with PSP and DS versions to follow.

The Konami football game enters its sixth incarnation with an unrivalled reputation for realistic and gripping gameplay. Key improvements to Pro Evolution Soccer 6 include new player AI with team mates running into space more intelligently, while the physical nature of the sport has also been enhanced with new turns and defensive blocks to learn, alongside closing down unmarked opponents.

The shooting system has also been refined, and players will be able to attempt more snap shots than in previous versions, while volleys and half-volleys have been reworked. It is also now possible to retain control of the ball after performing a sliding tackle, while all-new feints and backwards dribbling are now possible thanks to the improved dribbling controls. Coupled with the series' famed realism, the result is a more flowing and fluid game with all the movement and pace of the real thing.

Konami's has also added a raft of new licensed sides to Pro Evolution Soccer 6, and all versions will include the fully-licensed kits and squads for the Czech, French, Australian, English, Italian, Argentinian, Spanish and Swedish national sides. Similarly, the French Ligue 1 Orange has been added to the game, alongside key European sides such as Sporting Lisbon, Benfica, Olympiacos Piraeus, and Manchester United.

Another key addition to the October launch, is Pro Evolution Soccer 6's first appearance for a Next Generation format. Released alongside the established PlayStation 2 version, the Xbox 360 game features massively improved visuals and audio effects, while the player AI is also noticeably improved as Producer Shingo 'Seabass' Takatsuka and his team flex their skills using the 360 system's advanced capabilities.

I've played 5 on the PSP and it was good, as for the why part, its because they are going put extra content on the PS2 one because its the last one for PS2. I also don't own a 360 when im not at uni (yet)
