For me Fifa 09 was all wrong, the game play, online, everything. In the game none of the players are realistic, they never run for the ball and you can't move them, goal keepers make silly mistakes and I get my own team shooting into my own net??? To me that's an awful game. EA servers are rubbish in my area and it's definitely not my connection. I'm really hoping Fifa 10 to be really good because Fifa 09 has been such a let down. The referees are strange on the game, the advantage rule is stupid and it gets me really annoyed and also the tackling on the game is ridiculous. There's a lot of soar losers on the game as well, they don't like losing so if you get the first goal they will quit straight away and people always play as Man United or Barcelona and I know now that Ronaldos gone to Real everyone will play as them, it's sad! The good point is (and there is only really one) is that the game has wicked graphics and they must have put a load of work into it and I'm thankful for that. I've played this game for ages since Christmas because it really is addictive and every time I go back on it I'm hoping it will be better for some reason. I don't know why people are saying this was the best in the series cause to me it was a huge let down.
