Soccer war: Konami accuses FIFA of copying Pro Evolution Soccer

For them “the only reason” why FIFA is where it is today is thanks to Pro Evolution Soccer.

Jon Murphy, one of the top executives of Konami’s Pro Evolution Soccer series has given an interview to the British site Eurogamer in which he talks about the current situation of FIFA and Pro Evolution Soccer in what has been called the “Soccer War”.

“Recent examples of that when we announced something they announce it at the time. I’m not sure how these accidents happen so often,” said Murphy, who answered a resounding “yes” to question whether you are accusing FIFA of copying Pro Evolution Soccer. “I would not say they are actively doing it now, but do have a long history of copying Pro Evolution Soccer to get what they want. People should not forget that this is how they are seen. They have a lot of credit for having managed to be where they are now, but we must not forget that PES innovated many of these things and they copied it. ”

“If you look further back into the past of PES you can see they’ve obviously gone from a game that was totally different from PES to one that started copying PES to one that started taking areas PES did well further into the product they have now,” he went on.”
