What would EA do if PES gets official licencing and better graphics?
I think that would raise the standards for soccer(football) simulation games, and of course that would cause EA to start working alot harder than they are right now and would stop dissapointing FIFA lovers (like I was before i got FIFA 2004).
Coming up with one new gameplay addition per year, which was the repetitive OTB in FIFA 2004, is just a bad strategy by EA.
Why don't EA don't give us the whole gameplay fixed and not just piece by piece like they are right now?
Why does EA take out stuff intead of adding to it every year?
It looks like EA is starting from scratch every single year trying to get a perfect game, when you're never going to get a soccer game right the first time.

What do you guys think?

FIFA developers would pee in thier pants if they hear the news that PES has real licenses and as much leagues does EA have. :D

Who are they fooling with their uncomplete game? Ohh yeah the kids... :funny:

It will not work this time though ;)

Actually it is impossible for Konami to get the official license from FIFA (i mean the real football association FIFA, not EA's crap game), at least not these few years. Because EA got its exclusive license that prevents anyone getting the license. This is really really bad that EA wastes this license and insults football every year.

However, as PES 3 coming out of PC, we can edit the game much easier now. Thanks to many editors all around the world (some of them are even converted from FIFA), we can have offical kits with sponsors soon, which is already very close to offical license.

Try to make a better Fifa game. A game without bugs. If fifa didn´t have so many bugs, it would still be the best soccer game.

Well if one were to remove the bugs from any game it would be the best in it's category wouldn't it?

I really don't think that Konami needs to get licences. They have a clear head start over FIFA in the gameplay, they should spend the money refining and enhancing that instead of buying the right to render Fulham's away kit every year.

What they should do is provide solid, bullet-proof editor tools with the game, so that anyone can easily edit almost any aspect of the game. Kinda like Bioware did with Neverwinter Nights. Then you'd have a whole community of enthusiasts designing their own leagues and sharing them between themselves. Evey year you'd get the updated stats, transfers, kits etc, from others, or edit them yourself.

Want to play a season of English Second Division? Fine, fire up the editor and create the teams and players yourself. Post it on your website so that others can play as their Second Division team too. Want to be a Serie B team? Or an FA Conference team? They don't need to be "in the game", because with a bit of work I can put them in myself. It just needs to be easier for me to do the creative work.

With the advent of the PC version of PES, and the harddrive for the PS2, we may see this in the next iteration of PES/WE7 (I hope so). Sure, there are editors out there right now to edit certain aspects of the game, but they're not easy to find, use and integrate together to create your own custom leagues. I don't mean to belittle what those tool authors have created, because they've done a great job, but it can be a real pain to patch PES/WE7 correctly. What we need is one simple application that gives you control over everything - and I bet Konami have something like that already that they use to build the game in the first place.

It's nice to have the realism of the licenced stuff, but I don't want to pay for it every year and get the same gameplay in a shinier box (or worse gameplay - as evidenced by FIFA 2K4 this year). I'd rather pay for the gameplay improvements and work on the kits, faces, stadia etc myself.

i kinda agree... with the patching options you basically can get all the licensing into the game... as long as PES has all of the star players the rest is easily patchable.

take a look, PES3 w/ gobby's kits ....

That's why I decided to buy PES instead of Fifa. It's all about gameplay.
