eFootball: Steam players hate the free PES successor, poor ratings
eFootball
Today, Thursday, the starting shot for the new eFootball, formerly known as PES (Pro Evolution Soccer), was fired. But at least on Steam there is no trace of a euphoric atmosphere at the launch. On the contrary, there is currently even heavy review bombing, which is causing the current average rating to slide to "extremely negative". At the moment only nine percent of all reviews are of a positive nature, the rest are hailing criticism - and not too close.What is the trigger for the negative ratings? The Steam reviews focus on three main points. First, the players complain, among other things, of the unrealistic physics engine of eFootball. According to their statements, this is not only noticeable in the movements of the playing pieces, but extremely in the behavior of the ball. According to the critics, this leaves a lot to be desired and spoils the flow of the game. Second, the graphical presentation of the Free2Play title does not come off very well in the reviews. Third, the lack of features and content in the launch version is criticized, which Konami actually communicated quite openly in advance. Here are some excerpts from the Steam reviews:
"This is a joke. The worst football game I have ever played. It's like a mobile game. The ball seems to weigh 100 kg, the contacts between the players are chaotic, nothing feels right on. It's a shame. " "Two years. People have waited two full years with the promise that this game would be game changing. The only logical and possible explanation for the poor quality of the game is that Konami wants to go bankrupt or something like that. It's laughable alike and sad." "Uninstalled it after two games. They had to feel like PES Mobile was a huge hit, so they made a PC / console version. The game is no longer fluid, the AI is slow to respond and the characters have ' Dynamic movements', which makes them seem unrealistic. " PES2021 is a psychological horror game produced by Konami Studios. It carefully blurs the line between gaming and politics, fear is that it was only created to demoralize the West.
If you like situations where you hold your head in your hands and wonder if if you destroy the keyboard or throw the controller out the window, you will love this game.
Have you already downloaded and played eFootball? If so, what is your experience with the game so far? Are they similarly negative or are the Steam critics exaggerating? Write it in the comments!

Bengals vs. Jaguars player props, odds, Thursday Night Football picks: Joe Burrow over 246.5 passing yards
Without much time to prepare and playing on short rest, Thursday Night Football often leads to mixed results. The Panthers had to grind out a 24-9 win over the Texans in Week 3, while Washington won a 30-29 thriller over the Giants in Week 2. D.J. Moore, Brandin Cooks and Terry McLaurin have all had 100-yard receiving games on Thursday Night Football, but does that mean you should target NFL props on wide receivers when the Cincinnati Bengals take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 4? Which NFL player props could yield strong returns?
Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has 11 catches for 220 yards and four touchdowns in his first three games, but how should you approach the rookie with your NFL player props? Marvin Jones leads the Jaguars with 17 catches for 194 yards and two scores, and the latest NFL odds from Caesars Sportsbook list his over-under for receiving yards at 67.5. Before submitting any NFL prop bets for Jaguars vs. Bengals, you need to see the Bengals vs. Jaguars prop predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.
The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up almost $7,800 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception six-plus years ago. It went a sizzling 24-14 on top-rated NFL picks last season, returning more than $800. The model also enters Week 4 of the 2021 season on an incredible 123-81 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season.
The model also ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past five years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94 percent of CBS Sports Football Pick'em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is way up.
It can also be used to crush prop picks. Last season, the player over-under prop picks went 389-310, returning over $3,000.
With Bengals vs. Jaguars on Thursday Night Football, the model has evaluated the NFL player props from Caesars and found five strong bets. You can only see them here.
Top NFL player prop bets for Jaguars vs. BengalsAfter simulating Bengals vs. Jaguars 10,000 times, the model predicts that Burrow will easily surpass 246.5 passing yards and finish with 264. Burrow looked like a serious NFL Rookie of the Year contender before tearing his ACL in Week 11 last season, but he made his return to start the 2021 season and erased any doubts about his surgically-repaired left knee in a strong Week 1 win over the Vikings.
After throwing three interceptions in a row to sink the Bengals' chances of staying unbeaten against the Bears in Week 2, Burrow came back to throw for three touchdowns in a win over the Steelers last week. Burrow has only exceeded 246.5 passing yards once this season, but he bested that total six times in 10 starts as a rookie. Plus, the Jaguars' defense is allowing 302.3 passing yards per game through three weeks.
SportsLine's NFL model also has Jaguars running back James Robinson going over his total rushing yards of 49.5. The model sees Robinson gaining 59 yards on the ground and averaging a respectable 4.6 per carry. After Travis Etienne Jr. underwent season-ending foot surgery during the preseason, Robinson was able to reprise his role as the No. 1 back in Jacksonville and he's been very productive on a per touch basis despite the Jags trailing often and getting away from the run.
Robinson has carried the ball 31 times for 160 yards and added 12 receptions for 92 yards so far this season. At 5.2 yards per carry, Robinson only needs 10 carries for the over to hit and he's had at least 11 carries in his last two games. Look for Robinson to be involved a lot early as the Jaguars look to take pressure off rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence and for Robinson to comfortably go over 49.5 yards.
