Best Football Game Out There - By: Harry Spencer, 18 Nov 2008 
Destroys PES 2009 all day. If you want a top football game then look no further. Waste so many hours playing this bad boy!
Best football game ever! - By: Danielle Simmons, 16 Nov 2008 
After purchasing this game, I was very pleased as it is the best Fifa game to date. The graphics are brilliant & game play to match. I would definitely recommend any football & PS3 fan this game. It seems like every detail has been accounted for, from the wonderful detail & likeness to the real players, to the brand names on the back of the net. I would give this game 10/10, it really is brilliant!
Horrible Game - By: Mr. Josh A. Rathbone, 16 Nov 2008 
What have they done to Fifa, I feel they have tried to become PRO EVO & have failled. I have always been a fan of FIFA until this 2009 edition. After buying this gamein good spirits I have been let down to the max, I cannot play this game for longer than 10-15 minutes before it becomes soul destroying. From now on I would say try before you buy.
an honest approach from a fifa nut - By: f*** your system.try mine, 12 Nov 2008 
good but not quite there!!! mayby 2010 fifa eh?
this review is on the grounds that i have played every fifa since 1995.
i watched the fifa games get better & better from 95 to about 2002....they started to go downhill at this point which made 03,04 & 05 complete disasters.06 was nothing special so ea needed a big onein 07.they did that & went on to make 08 extremely impressive aswell.
with 09 i admire what theyve done except the gameplay.can be very fustrating with the passing & movement.when passing i tilt my joystick towards the player i want the ball to go to yet alot of the time this never happens resultingin me losing the ball & my online skill rating.the movement is rigid & with 08 being very handy to beat players with this time you have limited options on where you can go & often lose the ball when running at speed.also the speed is still not there.the last 2 games have not been fast moving but have got away with it with excellent gameplay but not this time....the game can be very slow at times!
hopefully ea will realise these faults & build on the gameplay for 2010 which has major potential i must add.
to ea:fix the inacurate passing,the limited movement & speed things up! make it exciting! & with the online play....i know game quality depends on player connections but there must be something you can do to help those with bad connections?....better servers?,not such high sizes unable to make it down small bandwidths
all i can really say is this is a very good game but its just a stepping stone to 2010 & what fifa can really do.watch the fifa/ea space!
FIFA gets a whole lot better - By: Mr. M. Randall, 11 Nov 2008 
The best FIFA yet.... by a long way.
Now I look at FIFA through tinted glasses as I have always been a fan of the series. But after 08 I was getting fed up with the slow player reations, stuttery gameplay & stupidity of the refs.
Well for the moist part the flaws are ironed out. Yes players tend to look ovet their shoulder when revieving a pass over the top & it can lead to silly goals of missed chnces. But you can work over this with experience. Defence is massively improved & I have found on a number of occasions no matter what you do the ball wont find the net (likein real life). On the other hand you can score repeat goals if you arein the groove! keepers are good & charge quickly, reach well but do letin suspect near post goals. as usual kits & stia are all there (minu the bernabeu) & plyer likenesses & graphics are very good.
I enjoy this immensely & the games modes offer so many options from online to Be A Prop & manager mode.
Very enjoyable game & a big improvement on previous years.
