In conclusion
November 7, 2008
A few niggling details aside, the gameplay is tighter and more fun than it's been in a long time, while other aspects, where FIFA has always led, keep improving. There is a plethora of game modes, both online and offline, offering something for everyone. For fans of football games, the mantra has always been -- FIFA for presentation and licenses, PES for gameplay. Now, with FIFA upping the ante with more fluid gameplay, it is getting uncomfortably close to matching Konami's cult hit in that department, and with all other aspects stacked in its favour, it comes out ahead as an overall package.
For the first time in a long, long time, I'm in a position where I can, without hesitation, recommend a FIFA game to anyone that asks. It is the complete football game, and while it's far from perfect, for anyone who's ever considered trying out a football game, FIFA 09 is a great place to begin.
Verdict: Buy
