I don't know about the licenses in PES this year, but do know FIFA has got some licenses back in the game, missing in previous versions (i.e. the Netherlands)
I would think they will have the three main leagues Italy, Spain, English it would be suicide if they did not!
PS: though it's much more fun to play with accurate sides, if PES is the better game in the end I'll still go with that one. I'm not convinced by either one yet. Though I do think PES is going to win for me this year...
Well lets hope that early promise holds out, I am gonna wait and see, problem was I was a huge fan of PES since PES version 4 (what ever it was actually called now!) right up til version 8. This is where they started losing the plot and FIFA did a smash and grab right under their noses!
