Anyone else think it's weird that as faithful as Pro Evolution Soccer 2013 (known in Asia as World Soccer: Winning Eleven) is to the world's most popular sport, it's still called "Soccer" instead of "Football"?

But that's neither here nor there: The hardcore football simulation is getting its latest entry this fall, and the demo for the new game is now available for download on Xbox Live and PSN. You can see new mechanics like PES FullControl, play with eight fully-licensed teams, or check out cover athlete Cristiano Ronaldo in the game, running at any difficulty level. Go, download, and enjoy yourself some brand new Pro Evolution Footb-- sorry, Soccer.

It's been a long time coming, but the Wii's first online-enabled sports game, Mario Strikers: Charged, is getting on towards completion. French gaming mega-site JeuxFrance sat down with the developers at Next Level Games to get some details on how online gameplay will work on the Wii. Among the interesting features:
  • Ranked matches will pair players based on win-loss records, but those records will reset at the end of three month "seasons."
  • Unranked matches will make use Mii-specific friend lists, so multiple users on one system can have different friends.
  • The player that earns the most ranking points every day will have their Mii featured on the log-in screen as the "player of the day." Ranking points are earned based on wins and number of goals. Disconnects will be punished with negative ranking points.
  • Online matches can have four players at most (no four-on-four networked play). Ranked matches can be one-on-one or two-on-two, with each team sharing a system. Three-on-one and two-on-one matches are available in unranked games.
The full interview also reveals many new characters and features for the sequel, including a new mega-shot that can be worth up to six points. Six points in one play? Sounds like somebody confused American football and European football again.
