I think FIFA 09 is a near perfect football game now. Really tight controls & its now more a simulation football game & thats the way I like it. Graphics are what you'd expect from a FIFA game & the Adidas Live Season updates are a great addition, a little bit expensive but if you're a footie junkie like me, its worth getting & it will enhance the realism of the game.
The bar has been raised..can PES 2009 respond ? Judging from PES 2008..its gonna be a real challenge for the guys at Konami.

Online was quite smooth, just a little lag but it was ok after a minute or so. Just a word of advice for the newbies to FIFA 09, the AI opponents in this game are pretty relentless in getting the ball (especially in Professional Mode) but thats the way it should be.

This game gets a 2 thumbs up !!
