World Soccer Winning Eleven 9

Pro Evolution Soccer 5 is a football video game developed and published by Konami as part of the Pro Evolution Soccer series. It is also known as World Soccer: Winning Eleven 9 in North America and Japan and is sometimes mislabeled as World Soccer Winning Eleven 9 International. With the inclusion of Arsenal and Chelsea, it is the first release of the series to offer fully licensed clubs from the Premier League, one of the game’s three unlicensed leagues. As with the predecessor Pro Evolution Soccer 4, three licensed leagues exist. In addition, the game includes three fully licensed leagues: the Spanish Liga Espanola, the Dutch Eredivisie, and the Italian Serie A. The game, like previous versions, consists of an edit mode that allows the player to change certain aspects of the game. It was the final release to feature the German Bundesliga (known in-game as the German League) before a generic league replaced it due to losing the license for subsequent releases. Pro Evolution Soccer 5 was the series’ first appearance on the PlayStation Portable. It was also the first game in the series to include online play for the PlayStation 2. Statistics and league points are saved on the server for each game played during online play. These points determine the position of a team (player) within the five online divisions.
