Screw EA!

No, please! BEFORE you think about deleting this Thread, understand my reasons.

I´m from Germany and every year i buy both the EA Game and PES (since International Superstar Soccer Deluxe on the SNES) and i really love PES and enjoy playing fifa (it´s good for a kick or two if you don´t wanna hang all the time on your PC) And every year i edit everything on my own in PES... which leads me to my primary problem!

You seem to be, well a little bit to kind to EA. I don´t know why you are that damn inactive when it comes to competition! :shocking:

The point is that EA does EVERYTHING to sabotage you selling records just to have the customers buying the fifa games. But why in the blue hell aren´t you doing it also?

Take a look back at PES4 and PES5... There was a German League in it! with Fake Team names! only the Players were real (except a few from Netherlands) and it was fantastic that you didn´t have to build every Player on your own. But in PES6 EA had it forbidden because they had/have the official, exclusiv license for the Bundesliga... well fuck...

but in 2009 you bought yourself the official Champions League license... then the Europa League license... and you implemented them in the game and everybody was happy... and what did EA? they have this sweet little career mode and tournament mode and so one... where you can play Bundesliga and qualify for something that reminds me of something... What is it?... Yes, it seems that you can qualify for something like the Champions League... of course it isn´t called the Champions League or Europa League... but you can tell that it IS the champions League! and what do you do about it? NOTHING!

Maybe you don´t want trouble with EA... but they would do it also! THEY would get your asses infront of an judge, if they had the CL license and you would integrate an mode that reminds only a bit of the CL... They would let it get removed from the game... and maybe sue you for having the nuts to create something like the CL!

But YOU do nothing about it! I´m pretty sure you could let it get removed from FIFA also, but you don´t. I´m not saying that you should go war with EA! NO WAY!! but... only maybe... you could get along with them... you could allow them to keep their Champions CUP (it does´nt even SOUND like they would try to let the buyers think of something other then the Champions LEAGUE!) and you could, for example bring back the German League (and the fucking Spanish Stadiums! did i already tell how much that sucks?).

If i, as Gamer, am not allowed to participate in the Champions League AFTER i won the Bundesliga... i would be very pissed and maybe would´nt buy fiffy ahm fifa 15... Come... you are Japanese (at least the programmers... right?) YOU are fucking SAMURAIS and NINJAS:ninja:! (well... this does´nt sound the way like it should...) YOU are fucking AWESOME SAMURAIS and NINJAS (yep... that´s better) YOU are born Fighters! so please... at least once in you life STAND UP and FIGHT!

I am pretty sure that you could sell many more copies of PES in germany if, at least, something like the German League would come back... and EA can go on with using their champions CUP...

Just some thoughts from me... But you can think about it...

and PLEASE don´t delete this thread, you can lock it, but i don´t think that other gamers are pleased with what EA is doing to be the top dog in football gaming...

best regards from Germany

I don't really get your argument.

Konami can't do anything about EA having an in game tournament similar to the Champions League, as long as it doesn't use the official competition name.

But for arguments sake, if Konami did kick up a fuss about this, wouldn't EA have a similar gripe about using leagues similar to the official licensed ones in FIFA?

The fact is, game companies have been working to get around licensing issues for years, and Konami have had to do so themselves more than many others.

Ok, i see you point. but i thought if EA had the "right" to get the German League removed, because of it´s similarity with the Bundesliga, Konami should also have the "right" to remove the Champions Cup.
