Are PSP versions of PES5 and WE9 too different?

[Mahler_seele]

I just bought my PSP yesterday in order to play friendly football matches on the road.
Where I live everyone sells WE9 for PSP for a fair price ($55). My problem with that is that it's all in japanese. But, as far as I know, there are option files that deal with this problem (I can't patch, I have GTA:LCS, which forced me to switch to firmware 2.0).
I asked about PES5, but they said it will only arrive to stores here in about a month.

So here's my question. Is PES5 THAT different from WE9?? Is it worth the wait? Or should I just go for the WE9:UE?

Thanks

Quick question. Can you play games from any region on your PSP, or does the unit require modding (like a PS2) to play import games? I ask because I will be geting a PSP for Xmas and want a footy game, but have no desire for WTS or FIFA titles. Since WE9 isn't coming out here in the states until March, i was hopig I could import PES5 from Europe. Would this game be compatible with my USA PSP? Thanks!
