I'm sort of digressing here, but did anyone mention anything about option files being completely impossible on current-gen? I realize they're fan-generated and not officially supported, so is it just a matter of "cracking the code" on PS4/XB1 saves? I certainly hope so.

Konami, please tell me this isn't the big news for today...

I don't think the reward (increase in ppl buying the game in those 2 countries) would be worth the cost of acquiring those licenses. Just my .02

If so, then Konami's PR is officially the worst.

Who would make a teaser announcement about tutorial vids? That is insane.

Personally, I hope that more licenses mean more relevant European leagues. I like how when they got the La Liga license a few years back, Konami went all out and included all of the stadiums in Spain. I'm really hoping for Serie A and Bundesliga, if not EPL and/or La Liga. I know it's a stretch since EA seems to have licenses to all of the major clubs and leagues. I can't imagine Konami taking away too many licenses away from EA since it's a huge part of annual FIFA releases.

For all we know, "more licenses" could mean more licensed national teams, tournaments (Copa America, FIFA Club World Cup, Gold Cup), or even South American leagues like Uruguay, Argentina, or Brazil.

The lack of an EPL license, plus no viable option files on current-gen systems (and the dud that was PES 2014), has effectively killed PES. I hate it too, as it used to be such a great experience, but those days are gone. Only 600K PES games sold this year- FIFA sold that in a few hours. There's next to no way Konami is making $$$ on PES, and IMO the only question is when will they pull the plug?

With all of the weird news swirling around Konami these days, I don't think anyone can accurately predict the long-term future for PES. What we do know is that healthy competition makes a better product for everyone, hopefully PES doesn't go away anytime soon.

I mainly play FIFA, I thought 15 was damn-near perfect, but after seeing all of the great things PES 2015 did on-pitch I now see that FIFA can still make some huge strides. Hopefully EA have taken notice as well.

I've read that the Bundesliga and EPL deals expire at least in a couple years so no chance any of those appear soon.

I didn't understand not being able to have every Spanish stadium in PES, if they've the license of every team how they can't use them? If they could do the same with every team they've licensed it'd be fantastic.

Lol. No way they get our league in the game, it sucks so bad it isn't worth getting.

Seeing as Konami did not renew the J-League license, I wouldn't be surprised if EA FIFA picks that up now.
