Pro Evo 5 Gets a Splash of Henry
Just what the Arsenal striker needed - more exposure and more money. New screens.
If you've been suffering sleepless nights wondering who's going to be the face of Pro Evolution Soccer 5, we come bearing relief.
Arsenal and French international squad super striker Thierry Henry will be lending his face to the game for the second year running, netting him not-really-needed publicity and, we presume, a spot of cash too.
Henry, who says he's been a fan of Konami's pro-realism football series for a decade, will be involved in publicity for the game and he'll also help the developers craft the most accurate game to date.
Pro Evolution Soccer 5 will be out for Xbox, PC and PlayStation 2 this autumn.
