Fifa 2009 vs PES 2009

Games by Fusion on  Feb 21, 2009

Every year all football gaming fans go crazy on the two top football games. This year it's no exception and both gamers and football maniacs are going crazy over the two games, Fifa 2009 and Pro Evolution Soccer 2009. In this article, I look at both the games and check out what's good and what's not with my opinion thrown in.

Fifa 2009

This is one game that is widely anticipated by gaming fans and the latest release does not disappoint them. Their policy of getting feedback from the gamers has paid off as they have incorporated several features that were missing last year and they have addressed some downsides as well that were a sore point with the fans last year.

The latest version is much improved than the earlier one and they have paid particular attention to the dynamics of ball physics and the collision system. The ability to specify the camera to switch any angles will sure be a delight. They have also added Be a Pro Seasons Mode, the Adidas Live Season and the 10-on-10 football. These eye catching additions would amaze the most diehard fan.

PES 2009 comes in a neat version that takes us back to the popular PS2 version that won many a gamers heart and purse. Talk about going back to the golden age! But, the flip side is that the graphics leave much to be desired. The game play is smooth and natural and goes with the flow. This is one area which makes PES a good buy.

Where PES 2009 scores is they have managed to get big name licenses like UEFA Champions league license, Manchester United License and Liverpool's License. However, this is where it stops and the other players are little known and may not grab attention.

 

Conclusion:

 

In my opinion, there is a clear winner for this year and the honors go to Fifa 2009. With its reworked look and neat interface, Fifa 2009 looks set to dominate the football games part of the gaming industry. While PES 2009 has scored some goals with their licenses of big leagues, they have a long way to go as many unique licenses are still held by Fifa. The saving grace for PES is that the game has a tendency to hook you slowly and it is one for the long haul. If they can get their act together with the use of modern technology, they can sure catch up.
