Advantages: Everything

Disadvantages: None

Fifa 09 is or was the latest Fifa game in the series and promised to be something special. Especially when put onto the Playstation 3. So there are a number of solid reasons as to why this game is extremely good.

When you have got the game loaded you will find yourself in an arena area taking control of Ronaldinho at the centre circle with the ball facing a goalkeeper. This arena allows you to get used to the controls by doing various things, practicing tricks and trying shots. Quite a clever intro into the game really. Helpful if you want a quick mess about to pick up a few tricsk before heading into the game.

From here you can skip through to the main menu which gives you the different game modes as well as options for set up.

The game oprtions include:

Be a pro, here you select a player or create your own. This is definately a good feature as you can make yourself! Thumbs up, unless of course you want to be a goalkeeper then your not aloud to do this, you must be an outfield player. This displeased me somewhat, as its the position i play!!! I would like to see this changed in future games.
After selecting or creating yourself you have to work you way through the ranks to become a Pro!

Manager mode, gives you the option to select a team and can manage them for upto 12+ seasons. Good idea.

Tournaments - Here you can compete in tournaments or create your own.
Such as the Fa cup etc. You can choose what teams play aswell.

Now onto the actual game play. The graphics are awesome, very good physics of the ball and player movements too. Even the goalkeepers act like real people. Commentry is also much better, being spot on with advancements in the game.
There are loads of leagues too many to mention but in the english leagues it goes from the premiership down to the conference. So just a few teams, and thats not including the rest of the world.

Overall a brilliant football game which is accurate and looks great. Its fun to play be it 1 or 2 players. Be it cooperative or against and be it even online.
Fifa 09 is definately a football game to remember!

Summary: A great all round performance from Ea make this game unmissable
