Powered by the third generation of the EA SPORTS football engine, FIFA 09 features more than 250 core gameplay additions and enhancements that deliver the most responsive, intelligent and realistic action ever for the series. Enjoy turning defenders with more controlled dribbling and ball control, snapping off precision shots with improved first-time shooting mechanics and firing beautifully timed passes with greater accuracy, placing the ball exactly where you want it. With new player momentum physics the speed and weight of the player determines everything from the distance of a slide tackle and the power of a header to the severity of player collisions and the height of a player`s jump. Plus, players now behave according to their physical attributes with larger, stronger players dominating collisions, battles for control of the ball, and position in challenges for two player headers.

Polished, refined gameplay - Featuring 250 additions and enhancements to core gameplay, including new animation technology that creates more responsive first-time shooting and passing, faster and more controlled dribbling, and improved trapping, and new player momentum physics that delivers realistic player collisions, authentic jostling for the ball, and more variation in tackling.

Custom Team Tactics - Become a first-team coach with the power to tune and balance 11 tactical sliders for 140 attacking and 40 defending options (more than 50,000 combinations) so CPU players and your team perform just like the real-world team or how you think the real team should play. Save your tactics to make strategic decisions to exploit your opponent’s weaknesses during the game. Plus, share your strategies with friends online*.

Be A Pro: Seasons - Pick or create a professional player and test your football ability over a four season campaign. Master a single position and develop your skills -- passing, shooting, positioning, marking -- to ultimately become a national legend.

Be A Pro: 10 vs 10 Online Team Play - Create your own team of up to 10 friends, all playing fixed outfield positions, to challenge rival teams of up to 10 players. Instead of thinking as an individual player now you have to think and play as a team.

Improved Goalkeeper Intelligence - Goalkeepers position themselves more intelligently, react to shots more realistically and recover from saves faster.

Customised Controllers - Create your own bespoke controller configuration, save it and even take it online effortlessly. Assign actions to the buttons exactly how you like them for complete control.

Looks great you should look at some of the screenshot too. They are very good. I might get it when it comes out eventually at the end of this year.

This game also got a 9/10 rating in the official playstation magazine.

I don't think I've heard bad things about a Fifa game in years if not more. Unfortunately I find soccer/football to be mind numbingly boring haha, but for those that enjoy the sport I can only imagine that this is the pinacle of gaming. I know the Fifa games I've played, technologically, were at the top of their realm. I couldn't think of many faults to say of them ignoring my personal opinions of the sport. If you're a fan of football/soccer I'd have to reccomend this game as well.

Actually as some of you may know its out now and is selling. PES2009 is also out and i noticed that the old ones are fairly cheap if you look around. I saw a PES2008 ps2 game for sale at $27 which is really good. Anyway I'm sure you would be able to find a good detailed review of it if you were interested.
