Ever since the popularity of Fifa2002 , EA sports has given lot of attention in the making of fifa series having been one of the most sought after PC sport games of all times. The advent of Fifa 2002 saw rapid improvements in the game play and made EA sports FIFA series a favorite pass time for all football fans and lovers around the world.
EA sports has been coming up with new FIFA versions every year ever since and FIFA 09 is the latest installment that is about to hit the market. I have tried the Fifa 09 demo version for PC and will give a short review on it.
The graphics has been improved from FIFA 08 though not on a scale that one would have imagined having played PES ( Pro Evolution Soccer) who is now the closest competitor to the EA FIFA series.
The major option that has been provided is the new mouse plus keyboad controls that would make playing a lot easier for a new player though i felt it still needs perfection. From the point of view of an old player i doubt it will make any difference though the splitting of controls in the keyborad like for example lobbing and sliding tackle as two separte functions would make playing with keyboard alone a lot more complicated affair. Though the full version may have sorted this out, the demo lacks seriously with this respect as an old player will find it quite irritating.
On the whole the new stadium looks, fans look and player look is better the game play still remains same though the level of difficulty may have been reduced compared to 08.
So i will rate the demo of FIFA 09 2/5.
If u are a new player buying fifa 09 would be exciting but if u already own fifa 08 i would suggest you not buy it.
On a high note this is just the demo and the full version may be lot better.
