## Description

desertcart.co.uk Review Step onto the pitch and play professional football your way in FIFA 09. Experience the most authentic football simulation EA Sports has delivered as you live the fantasy of playing as a professional player and customise the game to suit your style and ability. 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.

Review: Average - My brother has this game and I will admit that I am constantly playing on it because it is an absorbing game. Unfortunately there are two major flaws. Firstly the squads are more or less the same as Fifa 08 with a few changes (for example Modric is Spurs' only change.) The other problem is training. It is once every 5 weeks and sometimes your player can be trained to be one of the best players in the world and the next week he is way down on a rating like 25 (for Roy Carrolll, who the previous week had been rated as 64.) If you want a good fun game then you will enjoy this game but if you are a stickler for detail then this isn't for you.
Review: Funtastic FIFA 09 - I bought this game for my 10 year old son and he loves it. He plays as a recognised league team or as the team he compiled himself. Action packed and great fun, a fab game for a young footie fan.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ FIFA 09 Review
*by P***P on 20 April 2009*

Many people who have played the FIFA games regularly on PS3 or Xbox 360 will think this game is rubbish. They'll think the graphics are bad and that there aren't enough things for you to do. However, as someone who does not have a PS3 or Xbox, i think it's very good for a non-nintendo DS game. It's certainly much much better than the other football game i have had for DS (which was PES '08), which was just dreadful compared to this. The game is very to easy to get the hang of, and with 4 difficulty levels to choose from it'll be a while before it gets too easy. The game features all 4 divisions of the English football league, plus most of the major European leagues (includiong the top 2 divisions in Germany, Spain and Italy). It's not flawless (there are occasional glitches and it's way too easy to have players sent off), but all in all, it's pretty good.
