So, which system are you getting it for? PS3 or 360?

It's going to allow 10 vs 10 online play, which is superb, but only if enough people can get together. This version also has a much more fleshed out Be A Pro mode, which is something that I'm really looking forward to.

I'm edging towards the PS3 version, mainly due to the fact that I don't have enough games for that system, though I'll probably end up getting for the 360 because that's the main gaming machine (in my house)

A couple of good reviews are out from the European sites:

IGN UK: 8.9 (http://ps3.ign.com/articles/913/913806p1.html)
Gameplanet: 90 (http://www.gameplanet.co.nz/xbox-360/reviews/132428.FIFA-09/)

Other reviews: metacritic PS3: 88 (http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps3/fifasoccer09#critics) 360: 89 (http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/xbox360/fifasoccer09#critics)

Tempted to get it on PS3 as well. I've not played a FIFA game in years but this one's looking pretty good.

As a longtime PES fan all I can say is: It's good. Surprisingly good.

I got it on Xbox 360. Mainly because I want to play against my friends, who mainly got 360s.

360. Or PS3. I just don't know - now that I have an option.

Damn you , rini! :)

I got it for the 360. Judging by the demo the 360 version looks slightly better, like most EA Sports titles.

I really like FIFA09, so much that I'm not sure when or if I'll pick up PES09. EA has slowly made FIFA into a pretty great soccer game. And the presentation is way ahead of the competition.

I used to really enjoy the PES games, but then found that the year to year iterations weren't improving/adding very much anymore, so I went back to FIFA and I've pretty much stayed there now mainly due to the presentation...something I've watched improve since the early Genesis days, then PC days, etc...
