@KiriharaZro: No, I'm not a SJW. It's about having principles - something you might struggle to understand.

@KiriharaZro: The reason for the lack of licensing of the most important leagues is that they do not have buckets of cash and exclusive contracts like EA. That's the main thing that keeps FIFA on top in terms of sales. If everything was fair and Konami had access to all the licenses, it would have turned out like the NBA 2K and NBA Live series. Gaining an advantage because of the company's wealth is something that annoys me, so I'm perfectly happy to support the underdog, especially when it offers a superior product at the core. Also, I'm glad that I'm not an American, and if supporting monopolies and taking the easy route, while not caring much about aspects that matter the most is the smart thing to do, I prefer not to be smart.

Ah, the irony of talking about context, while the immediate context is the article about a game that simulates the sport that 95% of the world calls football. The context of Gamespot being an American site is secondary.

P.S.

You might want to revise the rules for capitalizing words. It looks awkward when someone whose first language is not English has to give writing advices to such a smart American.

@KiriharaZro: I really enjoy reading such bold statements from people who have little to no clue about a subject. First of all, the number of licensed teams has nothing to do with the Champions League license. Team licensing is down to the licensing of national leagues and individual club contracts. In fact, there will be many more licensed teams in PES 2019 because Konami acquired licenses for the leagues of countries like Argentina, Portugal, Belguim, Scotland, Russia, Turkey and so on.

The term "soccer" is slang for "association football" and is used officially in approximately 5 countries, while the rest of the world calls the sport "football", not just Spanish-speaking countries. But I suppose you are American, so you are forgiven for your ignorance. And since we are writing in English, you might as well capitalize the names of languages.

Where did I say that caring about the gameplay is somehow tied to playing with fake teams? Using patches has always been the way to play a fully licensed version of PES and for people who are so inept that they cannot install such a patch, there is always FIFA. Also, I play on PC and not console, so space limitations don't bother me that much.

All in all, you could barely muster a true statement in three paragraphs, but thanks for the laugh.

@KiriharaZro: You obviously don't know much about football, do you? The Champions League license basically a fancy skin for a competition. People who are really into football care about the gameplay and that is where PES is king. Also, most of us are capable enough to install a patch that fixes the licensing issues.

@lonesamurai1: That's 60 seconds more than the time during which your opinion made sense.

@ZIMdoom: It seems that time travel has created too many parallel universes, which can also serve as a good excuse for all those inconsistencies :)

@DARREN636: After T2 rather.

@cornbredx: The new movie will ignore T3 for sure, as Sarah Connor had died in it. T3 also had a couple of factual mistakes about previous events, so it's best forgotten. Salvation might be ignored as well, but it didn't affect the overall storyline that much. I treat every sequel after T2 as a story from a parallel Terminator universe, cause the original script ends with T2.

@peterhorner1867: What's so different about it? I can only see improvements.

@peterhorner1867: In reality, PES should be a 9 and FIFA an 8. This is about gameplay over presentation and substance over style.
