Great game, good gameplay, realistic, but a few AI bugs are about....
The graphics have been dramatically improved, with over 20 stadiums available, in stunning detail, player models are also brilliant, more life like, and alot of key player moves which matches a certain real-world players attributes and trademark celebrations, also Ronaldos Free-Kick stance is in there
Gameplay is good, but a few problems with player AI, sometimes when you pass a ball to a player, sometimes the player (Player or CPU) will move away from the ball and will make things alot slower, usually automatically, the player gets it regardless of wether you are in control or not.
Arena mode has been greatly improved, with MORE arenas, ive counted 5 so far, which makes the game more variable and better to get used to.
I havent tried online so i cant comment.
For the next game, Fifa 2010 or the world cup, there isnt much that can change for the game, probably the Blue Square Premier might a more interesting mode, also, improve the player AI, also, there are commentary problems, maybe more commentators, Martin Tyler, Iain Darke and all the other sky sports commentators can make it more variable, other than that its fine.
The game is excellent, and easily the best game ive got out of the Fifa series so far, apart from a few AI problems and sometimes the substitutes makes you wait longer than in Fifa 08, but the game is great to get, so anyone who hasnt, TUT TUT
