or it the exact same thing and just the name changes?

It more or less is the same game, the differences between WE and PES are superfluous - obviously WE is primarily in Japanese (also releases in Korean, and much later for North America), though PES games released a few months after its equivalent WE game sometimes has a few changes (though hardly any change the gameplay).

I just wish Nokami would stick to one name and release the game worldwide at the same time instead of different names and different release dates everywhere.
