seriously, is this suppose to be better than Pro Evo? It has all the teams fully licensed right? All the leagues too?

If you love Pro Evo because of the gameplay mechanics then it is very unlikely that you would prefer FIFA. The two franchises have been competing for many years, and every single year Pro Evo has more realistic and more engaging gameplay. That is not to say that FIFA is not fun to play, but it is certainly simpler and more arcadish. FIFA however does have the full license to all the clubs and players which means you don't have to change the team names or play in made up leagues. FIFA also generally looks much better. If you play hockey games, Pro Evo is like the 2K series and FIFA is like EA's NHL 0x series (until this year where NHL 08 nails the gameplay).

Personally I am willing to trade the gameplay elements in favour of the team licenses and greater graphics, but I am not much of a soccer game fan and suspect that if I was I would prefer Pro Evo.
