    Konami on the brink?
    Take a look at how much Konami makes on gambling machines alone.

    Enough to buy as much licensing they want really, but the Japanese aren't stupid enough to waist money for just fun.

      True, but FIFA already absolutely dominates the market. It's rational for them to try and eat into that market share, and the decision they've apparently made is to essentially turn PES into FC Barcelona 2017 and use that huge brand to sell the game.

      I think it's a big selling point to be honest from this standpoint:

      Not having Barcelona licensed and official (team & player names) would be a killer blow.


      I don't know enough about exclusive partnerships and their limitations to just outright say they're horrible.

      Also,

      Pretty cool how they recreated several of Barca's famous goals from the last 2 years. They nailed em.
      Good point, interested to see if Barcelona is even licensed in FIFA because of this exclusive deal. I assume they would be featured like the unlicensed Serie B teams with altered emblem and default kits.

      Let rephrase that, bad financial state. They were losing money, there is a reason why they're focusing on mobile and gambling machines.
      Mets/Giants/Knicks/Rangers/Manchester United/Notre Dame Football

      Never let fear determine who you are. Never let where you came from determine where you are going.

        Barca will still be fully licensed in FIFA 17. Barca's a "premium partner" with PES which means that EA, who has deals with FIFPRO, and the La Liga license will still have real players and kits. I'm not sure about the Nou Camp though.

          Why don't we talk about how great this game looks and moves, even in that comparison too real life video on page 4 looks amazing.
          It moves okay, the player models of the baggy shorts and bulky legs are still throwing me off. That real life comparison goal video alone shows the difference.

              Please, I really hope they do. It's the little things, but they turn out big. Like Madden's lack of team celebrations.

                I agree, it took them long enough to fix those oven mitts that were masquerading as GK gloves.

                  The first goal from the Trailer vs Real life shows us blank kits for Real, which could mean Real is not licensed in the game and probably only Barcelona is for the Spanish league. If this is the case, the licensing of Barca is meaningless to a lot, a LOT of football video game fans.

                    You do know Atletico Madrid has already been confirmed right? Plus if the others aren't licensed, that's what the edit mode is for.
