Very big heads, that is. The folks behind the Official Nintendo Magazine posted a video showing off Winning Eleven: Pro Evolution Soccer 2008's RTS-esque plays and what the pitch will look like when you replace your team of normal-sized-head players with a squad of Miis, goofy expressions and all. It's worth watching the five-minute clip for both of those details!The game looks as goofy as NBA Jam's Big Head code, except with soccer! Also, PES 2008 matches will feature full commentary by Jon Champion and Mark Lawrenson, and not some guy yelling out a bunch of foolishness like "Razzle dazzle!" and "Boomshakalaka!" If that sounds like a minus to you, you always have the option of shouting those lines out yourself; that's what we do whenever we're at the dinner table. Kick the read link below for the video.

Giving a heads up (no pun intended) to let us know if the Read link will force resize our browser window would be nice.

This gives way to the possibilities of all sorts of funny Mii-style versus matches (Star Wars-themed Light Side vs. Dark Side comes to mind first). This seems pretty interesting and I have to say I'm glad to see some more third-parties getting into the Miis.

mii's are not that cool in the video how the game works is the important part. Pointing mechanics are a REVOLUTION IN Futbol (soccer) games. Something that is easy enough for casuals and elegant enough for hardcore people to get into.

The star wars idea could be cool & I'm sure there's loads more.
The good news here though is that the Wii version isn't just some sloppy port, their putting some thought into, hopefully it turns out good.

That's AWFUL!... The quality of the faces is horrible, please keep it away from my PES... I *LOVE* the new controller and strategical approach but the Mii stuff looks WAY TOO CHEAP.
