I was going to say him the same... but in part he's rigth at least this year, Konami will not have the rigths to put  ssome panish clubs and stadiums on the PES2014 because EA bougth the irgths... Stil their fault for being so lazy about, but  is a logical thing to happen if we analyze the slow start this generation of the Japanese developers... something that will not happen next one..

but again no PES2014 on PS4/Xone is just stupid, or is kojima thinking on showing the Foxengine exclusively for MGSV first and later for other games on the nextgen consoles? And what's worst, stillno PES for Vita. Is clearly they have neglected their franchise, and EA just take chance of it... actually is not longer a competition anymore like older times...

They've abandoned the 3DS version this year too.

Licenses aren't the be all and end all, yes they help, but in the peak of PES (3 and 4 for me) it didn't need the licenses, because the bliss of the gameplay spoke for itself.

There was a reason for a couple of years, PES was a genuine sales contender against FIFA even without the licenses. But Konami squandered it big time in refusing to invest in the HD formats. I guess that is systemic of a bigger issue that Japanese developers have had in adapting to newer systems.
