2009 is on the horizon and that means the influx of games released pre Christmas and it also means the Fifa vs Pro Evo battle commences. I've always been a die hard Pro Evo fan and having played both Fifa 2009 and PES 2009 there's no change, as a football sim PES still comes out on top for me. If slick graphics and full licencing is your cup of tea then stick with Fifa, if you prefer to play a football games that each year gets closer and closer to the real thing then PES wins hands down. On the surface it looks like not much has changed but after a few hours playing you'll be in awe as you receive the ball shimmy past 2 opponents and roll the ball into the bottom corner if the net, the movement is so much more fluid and the passing feels direct and tidy. Scoring goals if also much harder, the opponent a.i has been vastly improved which makes for a much more challenging experience. All this added to the Champions League licencing, become a Pro mode, much improved editing features and improved online play equates to a much better effort than 2008, roll on PES 2010!
