    ....is just pure gold in PES2009.

    Someone must've told him to "put more emotion" into his coverage, and quite rightly. PES2008's performance was completely deadpan.

    But poor Mark seems to have taken this advice to mean he should just basically shout from now on. Listen for his comments directly after half-time & full-time.

    "I MEAN I'M NOT TRYING TO TEACH MY GRANNY TO SUCK EGGS JON..." - omg!

    I hate how both commentators are so negative this year. Things like missing free kicks they say something like 'Oh, he needs to look at himself after that miss' when its not that really that bad of a miss or 'Its still goalless, I don't think we're going to see a goal before half time'. Drives me mad.

    Also, I heard Mark Lawrenson recorded his pro evo comments over a phone last year. lol

    Commentating is terrible....apart from Lawerenson's voice the annoying thing is that they just lifted most of the lines from last years game.

    It's back to that old argument about referees who've never played the game at this level.

    Guaranteed to be said at least once a game. There is another thing he says at the end of games about starting the car and getting out of there or something. Hilarious! :D
