Does anyone know if there will be fully editable custom leagues on WE8 ? I want to have a league with my mates and cant be bothered recording the results myself ! Sensible Soccer had this option 10 years ago !! The other thing i think they should include is the option to change the sponsors when editing the Kits.

The bit about sensible soccer is a common complaint about PES/WE. How simple it would be to copy Sensi's custom league and cup options - its not rocket science.

It won't be fake, Konami have said that's the official cover, it would be illegal for them to put the logo's on the front cover if they didn't have permission

Konami have said that WE8 is not coming to the box this year, maybe WE8:International, if there's going to be an international version, next year. It's not very difficult to take a PS2 cover and put some Xbox logos on it, and I don't think it's illegal, eg the French gamesmag which provided the whole fake screens and infos wasn't sued by Konami or anyone.

Basically this is how it is:

Konami have a license for the Eridivisie NV league only (as well as Serie A and La Liga). They are allowed to include the player names, kits and the like for the teams in that division.

But for players outside that division and the national squad, they are under the FIFpro license. Last year Holland were not included in that license but this year they are. Konami have to apply for this license well in advance, so more than likely they applied for it before Holland were inlcluded.

Hope that makes sense.

do you think I'm more or less right with my post above, people keep asking about this topic, and all I can say is what Konami said a couple of months ago, that PES is coming to the xbox, no info about WE8

Wait hear me out. Pes is the european release on X-box right? and w11-8 is the american(also jap) release.And knowing that the biggest xbox fans are americans (and i read it on a xbox site) the game called w11-8 was said to be coming the xbox.

Oh Larsson my fault i didn't read your post in the other topic. :D cheers

WE is the Japanese release. In Europe and the US you get PES. But in the US PES is called WE:International, and is the same like PES. It´s NOT the same game you get in Japan, it´s the same game you get in Europe. Hope that´s clear. I don´t think the Japanese WE will come to the xbox, as Konami said that only PES will come to the box this year and there´s no info about an xbox version so far, with 1 month left to the release, while we have a lot of informations about the PS2 version. So I don´t believe that you get the Japanese WE on the box. I can´t be sure though.

I agree with you larsson. I think the site posted earlier with the XBOX WE8 cover is a fake. I think they're reviewing the PS2 version (which can be seen by clicking the PS2 link on the same site). I think they wrote the info about the PS2 version originally. And assumed PES4/WE8 was the same game on XBOX. So they just copied exactly the same review from the PS2 review they did.

Sorry if that doesn't make sense but thats what I think.

Lock this thread :D

Anyway I still can't believe that Konami haven't been able to grab licenses. Are licenses owned exclusively only and not for everyone.I mean if a movie director wanted to have Pepsi being filmed drinken he couldn't because some other guy filmed Pepsi being drank in the same year? I hope I'm making sense here becasue my copy of Football Kingdom isn't .

Nah the pepsi thing doesnt work like that, and in any case, pepsi will pay the film people to have the pepsi label in the film, its known as product placement, and anyone can secure the right to have a certain product name in a film whatever year it is, no one signs up exclusively to that. The football licensing is different, and until not so long ago, Formula 1 had licensing probs. At one point, Psygnosis were the only game publisher to acquire the FIA licence to make an official F1 game, but they stopped that, and anyone can get hold of the license. Not entirely sure how the FIFA or FIFpro one works, and if its the case that EA have exclusive rights over the full Fifa license, then it means Konami have to find a way round that, like securing individual club, kit and player licences. Not 100% on how it works though, but I think its possibly something like that.

Yeah I think you're right, it's like with nhl, nfl, nba games etc they just have to obtain the licence for that organisation which is effectively what konami have done with the 3 leagues they've got cos they can't buy the whole FIFpro licence cos of ea.

So, just to clear up, the PS2 WE8 cover isn't fake? So we'll still get the 3 licensed leagues?(Does anybody know if its last years license or this years?)

Is it possible that by PES4, we could have the German, French and the EPL licensed?

Who knows... :rolleyes:
