In an attempt to breathe life back into this forum, I thought I'd post some news on the latest iteration of the Pro Evolution Soccer series. It's been confirmed that PES 2009 will have the Champions League license (see screenshots & trailer below).

The speed seems to be slightly slower than in PES 2008, which is a good thing in my opinion but disappointingly, the graphics don't seem to be vastly different from last year's.
I'm still undecided on which out of FIFA and PES to get this year but if Konami sort out the online side of things, that may sway me back to PES after a year without any football game.
