![]() Why is the game stuttering? Is something wrong with my setup? Is my 8600GT graphics card unable to handle the next-gen visuals? Ahh!! Looking good! The match began and being the seasoned footballer that I am, I could’t wait to… what the hell? Then I started a quick match and waited in anticipation at the loading screen. But what’s this? Some buttons just would not get mapped and remained ‘EMPTY’! After a little searching on the Internet, I was able to find a solution for this. Then I proceeded to set up my cheap PS-2 controller lookalike. The first time I fired up the game, I set all details to high including 3-D Grass, Depth of Field and Shader Quality. Now please note, I’m expressing my own opinions here, which may or may not correspond to your views. In short, I was looking for something which would make me go “Wow!” and make me want to play the game again and again.īut this was not to be. What I expected was pretty clear – smooth, stunning visual quality, fluid player movement, ‘intelligent’ AI, engrossing gameplay. Sadly despite all the hype surrounding the so-called next-gen features incorporated in FIFA 09, the game did not live up to my expectations. Enough small-talk, now let’s get down to business. The other game modes are the same as in previous releases. This time around, you can opt to play a single Be-A-Pro game rather than a whole season. The much-acclaimed Be-A-Pro mode is also there, with a new camera angle that looks better than the one in FIFA 08. And if a player has a dip in form, his game stats will be reduced. For example, if a certain player is performing well in real life, his stats will be affected in the game as well. It basically allows you to select a league, for which you’ll get periodic updates from EA. The interface is carried over from FIFA 08, with Adidas Live Season being a new addition. Selected my beloved Chelsea as the favourite team and I was all set. Even the video quality was not all that impressive. Looks like EA have stopped making interesting opening videos since FIFA 2004. ![]() ![]() I waited with bated breath as the opening cinematic began. Did that, and the mandatory declarations about the leagues and the copyrights came up. Started the game, and the first screen asks me to select a language. Okay, I’ll skip the installation part as most of you are aware of it. Is FIFA 09 really next-gen, as promised? Does it deliver oh-so-realistic visuals? Have the quirks and bugs in previous versions been ironed out? How does it compare to its arch nemesis – Pro Evolution Soccer? All these and more will be answered! ![]() Nice.Īnyways, let’s get down to the interesting part, the things most of you would like answers to. So what we have here is a scenario where people were playing the game one day before its scheduled release. However, the ones who couldn’t wait for the game to release and were not afraid to get their hands dirty, got their hands on it through the generous torrent community. Some may have pre-ordered their copies while some might be waiting for it to hit the store shelves in their town. Where you ask? Apparently the game has released in Europe and has rapidly spread all over the bit-torrent network. The tagline for the game is Let's FIFA 09.The next instalment of EA’s football game is here.
