Review
FIFA 09 is this year's soccer game by EA SPORTS for Windows. I, as a woman, cannot say that this is my type of game. I am not a big fan of sports, but I see men playing this like crazies all the time. The game itself looks like a real soccer match broadcast on TV. The players all look realistic and the rain and snow are pretty to watch. But, from what I could gather, the game allows the player to take full control of the players and do whatever you want with them. Every player has a different set of skills which you can use at any time. Players get tired, so those skills won't always work. Scoring is a little bit harder than with previous games, and that seems to be a good thing, since it makes the game more realistic. There are plenty of teams which the user can select to play with. Most international leagues are included. Most important teams from every league are also present when the league is not playable. There is a Be a Pro mode this year, which allows you to control a single player from a team, and play with 10 other players against some other 11 players. Each one of those players controls a player on the field. However, this mode can be laggy and people always complain about this. |
