Patching chaos pt3 - A Short reflection on advertising and sponsorship greed:

[pes3yes_fifa_no]

Ironic that we go to all this effort to have the correct advertising and sponsor logos in the game - the real life clubs shouldn't be so greedy with licensing fees, as they would get more exposure.
As for the corporate sponsors, they would be thrilled if they heard me say:
"Wait a minute, somethings missing here... oh yeah, my reality is not complete without the Vodafone(*) logo..."

cheers,

this should be in general and i'll move it there.

also people like realism in their game, thats why we are here patching it in the first place.

as for fees. it costs money. its not people being greedy...its the way the world is man.

i don't understand why sponsors wouldn't be thrilled to be on such a popular video game. konami should pitch the fact that it would be free advertising, like product boosting in blockbuster movies. with all the millions of people playing and replaying this game we'll see the same trademarks over and over again. sponsors of club teams should be knocking down konami's doors!!!

its the fact that they have lower sales numbers than fifa, bottom line

fifa makes more money so they can afford the licenses, and when you go to the sponsors they are prolly expecting to get what fifa pays for their licenses

plus this is what, the seventh version and they STILL havnt gotten the licenses yet...doesnt look like a pressing issue inside konami to me...granted i think we'd all like it!

Dont ask stupid questions about why we patch the game...... try it yourself and you will see why.. its a bit like doctor pepper...

but why limit yourself to one game, when you can be on both and saturate the market. if i was head of a large company, i'd be like: "say, we sponsor this team. go ahead and use their kits as long as it looks realistic...and don't butcher the logo!" knowing full well that millions of kids as well as adults will be seeing my logo. kit manufacturers should be saying the same thing. when the kids see it, it'll be all good. shoot, companies pay to sponsor a team, why don't they do the same for konami.

i'm just speaking on behalf of us poor few, that don't have the resources to do any patching. try going back to playing WE/PES unpatched...
