CBS and Hulu Unite (Kinda)

The weary battle rages on as CBS and Hulu announce a non-exclusive, multi-year licensing agreement to stream certain shows through Hulu's subscription service.

While CBS is still not offering any of its new series for streaming, they are allowing access to more than 2,600 episodes from their library series such as Medium, Numb3rs and CSI: Miami, as well as other classics like Star Trek, I Love Lucy and The Twilight Zone.

The agreement marks another baby step for Hulu and CBS, the only network still not offering new programs on Hulu. The two companies forged a similar deal last year for Japan, granting Hulu Plus members access to some of its older shows.

"CBS has a long history of producing truly great TV. Hulu Plus subscribers are entertainment lovers who spend their time watching shows they love, versus shows they might only just like," said Andy Forssell, Senior VP of Content for Hulu. Those two facts make for a fantastic combination, because this collection of CBS titles are shows that people revere and that really matter to fans of great TV like our subscribers."

CBS content will begin to appear on Hulu Plus in January 2013 and over the following months.

PES 2013 Adds Licensed Brazilian Teams for the First Time

Konami has officially announced a new licensing agreement that will bring 20 teams from across Brazil to the Pro Evolution Soccer series for the first time.

Some of the region's most prestigious football clubs, including Flamengo, Corinthians, Sao Paolo FC, Palmerias and Santos, will now feature in Pro Evolution Soccer 2013.

"The Latin American region, particularly Brazil, continues to grow tremendously for us, so it's important we bring teams and licenses from this region," said Erik Bladinieres, Director of Latin America for Konami. "Bringing in these teams from Brazil, along with the Copa Libertadores license, makes PES 2013 the most authentic soccer experience available in the market."

The full list of teams includes: Flamengo, Corinthians, São Paulo, Santos, Portuguesa, Internacional, Palmeiras, Fluminense, Ponte Preta, Coritiba, Grêmio, Vasco, Atlético Mieiro, Bahia, Atlético Goianiense, Sport, Figueirense, Náutico, Botafogo, and Cruzeiro.
