FIFA Soccer 09 is probably the closest game ever to replicate the experience of being in an actual soccer field. Learning from the pitfalls of last year's version, the series is back with a lot of improvements on its arsenal and is set to change the way we'll look at football gaming from here on out.



Before the development went on to work with FIFA 09, they first gathered valuable insights from fans, critcs and athletes themselves about what elements should be present in the game. Hence, they were able to come up with a more concrete idea of what to deliver for this game to make it the best offering off of the franchise yet.

With over 250 improvements in total, FIFA 2009 is looking to respond to every essential detail possible. Although some might be minor revisions or adjustments, it makes up for a well balanced and superior game.

The gameplay in FIFA Soccer 09 focuses on two elements: a cross between speed and physicality. The wider range of motion that is available in the game allows for a more physical play. It is definitely a thrill to watch how players jostle for position and the way they crash against each other as they go for the ball in FIFA 09. The intense on-court battle certainly raises the level of competition to a higher level.

A few other gameplay elements that have been improved for FIFA 2009 are the new ball physics and the highly improved collision system. But these newly improved gameplay elements will produce a more realistic effect as players crash into one another, or as the ball hits either the goal post or when hit by the players themselves.

To give you better control of how you want to enjoy this game, FIFA Soccer 09 is now filled with more customizable features and controls. Hence, you can adjust your view of the camera based on settings or attributes so you won't miss a single bit of action in FIFA 09.

The new custom tactics feature in FIFA 2009 is one of the results of the feedback gathered in the pre-development process, which lets you control the play. You can also customize your own character so if you want to create a virtual representation of yourself, it is indeed possible.

In its efforts to produce a game that every football fan would truly enjoy, EA Sports introduced some new additions into FIFA Soccer 2009. Some of the most exciting additions include the Be A Pro Seasons mode, the Adidas Live Season, and the 10-on-10 football.

All these new features for FIFA 09 expands your horizon to enjoying this game so you can compete with friends or fellow gamers to battle it out in the virtual soccer field. Then, there's the Be A Pro Season mode, which lets you control a single player and build him up. There's certainly bound to be a lot to look forward to with FIFA 2009.
