If you had it, surely you'd post more than that. Obviously it's like Fifa 08 with different line ups.

[Excellent2]

Thanks Wayne :) I just need to know if I should buy it or not haha.

[Wayne]

Lol, you might as well buy it. :P Or wait until it becomes preowned and get it slightly cheaper. If you want to play it as soon as possible, order it now. :)

[Cisse9]

the game is amazing, very good gameplay.

[Funya Chin]

[EverSteve]

£35 - Blockbuster

Also the main difference in the game is the play 4 seasons with a player. I know you can now do 20 years with a football team as well, plus some graphic alterations what look mint. Not gonna get it till December though :(

What do they rate Leyton Orient, and can you still make your own team? :D

[Tbh.]

Leyton Orient - 1 and a half stars
and i'm not sure about the team creation

[Excellent2]

Is berbatov at UTD? And is the Be A Pro season any good? :D

[Minstrels]

Not just saying this coz i support them, but they are in League 1 and they aint getting relegated :l

[Camistheman]

DUDE TONIGHT?

I pre order'd a month ago arrived yesterday night great on Wii!

but its gone up £10 since last month.

[Funya Chin]

Yes you are, they deserve that at most.

[newWORLDorder]

Just played the demo. Dont rate it. PES09 is the way forward IMO.

[Wayne]

Fifa 09 is better gameplay definately. PES demo is exactly like PES 2008, the only difference is the licensed teams and the menu. PES is also slow when trying to run round players.

[newWORLDorder]

I find Fifa very slow, its like.. groggy.

[Wayne]

I used to think that about Fifa 08 but then I got used to the Fifa 09 demo. I prefer to play a slower type of game since it's more realistic than players pegging it down the pitch.

[CJW93]

Amazingg

[Andys]

great game, i need to know the celebration buttons :(

[Funya Chin]

So you base a game off a demo?

[newWORLDorder]

So you base a game off a demo?

Thats what games are for, you can do that with most games. I instantly new Saints Row [1] was a must buy for me when I played the demo, as I did with PES09. Fifa is ok, I just find it a bit bland.

[Funya Chin]

Considering the FIFA demo build is about 4 months old... :rolleyes:

[Wayne]

great game, i need to know the celebration buttons :(

Doesn't it tell you when you score like in the demo?

[Excellent2]

Should get my copy tomorrow or monday :D Yeah you can't base a game off a demo, fifa is just a little 3-4 minute match so you can't tell the other features can you?

[newWORLDorder]

I will judge a game by gameplay.. it is possible to base a game of a demo. Its easy. Dont tell me that the demo build is 3-4 months old, the gameplay will have not radically changed and frankly it was a boring, forgettable experience in my opinion

[Funya Chin]

It has changed, and you sound like a PES fan boy.

[newWORLDorder]

Actually I am a huge football hater, I cant sit there for 90 minutes watching a bunch of lads booting a ball into some nets. I find the games amusing, but if I was to buy one of the games, it would be PES.

Your 'its a 4 month old built' comment was super fanboy-ish btw.

[Excellent2]

You still sound like a pes fanboy basing a game on a 2 minute match. They have updated the whole game now.

[Funya Chin]

Your 'its a 4 month old built' comment was super fanboy-ish btw.

It's a fact... lol.

[Excellent2]

It's a fact... lol.Damnit boy get that sexy woman out of your signature it's hard to stay on topic.

[Minstrels]

Damnit boy get that sexy woman out of your signature it's hard to stay on topic.
I think her eyes make her look like a fish. >.<

[Excellent2]

I'm sure that body of hers makes up for it Minstrels ;)

[newWORLDorder]

I played the fifa demo a few times, I cant judge a game based on one play. I done a few matches and found it dull. Where as PES can be a more enjoyable game at times. Im not buying any, I will use my bros copy of PES as he will buy it. But fifa was dull for me.

[Antallica]

Fifa's just amazing.
I love it.
The be a pro is amazing.
;D
and manager mode is brill.

[Excellent2]

Yeah I got in the UTD first team :D Anyone know if you can make changes to your player whilst keeping all your progress? (Appearance wise)

[AgnesIO]

Yes you are, they deserve that at most.


:l

Who do you support?

I bet your one of the people that claim they support Man U, yet have never watched them, even on tv, if your whole ******* life.

Glory hunting...

[Excellent2]

Okay okay ladies, lets calm it :)

lol

Well clearly he knows **** all about football :l

Also LOFC are about 2 star imo, the only team in league two that is 1 and a half is probably Hereford.

Alright then mate, because LO are in the same class as Doncaster - I see where you're coming from here.

I mean, it's not like we beat you 4-2 or anything.

LO should be 1-1&1/2.

:l

One match says nothing, we also had an outstanding game aggainst Carlise, we're both in the same league sooo

Out of all the teams you could measure us to...

[Funya Chin]

I'm sorry, you and your 'wonderful VIP' are right, Leyton Orient should be, well, 5*.

I mean, 19th place and 1 point off the relegation zone is AWESOME!

Oh how I envy to be a supporter of your club.

[Excellent2]

Guys can we edit our Be A Pro star in the mode? (without having to make a new one)

[BowTies1]

how do you check your messages on be a pro star mode where is the Hub

:l

I said 2 star, not 5 :l

and tbh, we played really well aggainst Carlise, and played well aggainst S****horpe on saturday too. Two very good teams and we nicked the draw :)

I aint gona say doncaster are ****, coz its immature and tbh they are no worse/better than leyton orient.

[Geo23]

Good Points

-Better Gameplay
- Clubs online
- BAP seasons
- More realistic overall with Refs and linesmen
- No Skipping
- In BAP online only captain can mass pause
- Stadiums look good with some new songs
- Weather

Bad Points

- No Kit edit for numbers
-Kits are not 100% the same as the real ones
-Weather doesnt affect the game
- Quitters still there
- Made Man Utd Just as good
- Squad and formations on differnet pages which takes up more time online
- Feels less in control of players then Euro 2008 gmae
- A few bugs and glitches

[Funya Chin]

I aint gona say doncaster are ****, coz its immature and tbh they are no worse/better than leyton orient.

The fact that we got promoted and you didn't somehow signifies that, in all honesty - facts and all, Doncaster are better.

[Excellent2]

At the end of the day both leyton orient and doncaster failures both suck.

[Funya Chin]

I don't think any club has achieved what Doncaster Rovers have done in the last 6 years so to be honest, your glory supporting self has just been proven wrong.

[Nereo]

On PS2 its exactly the same as 08 :(

[Minstrels]

I don't think any club has achieved what Doncaster Rovers have done in the last 6 years so to be honest, your glory supporting self has just been proven wrong.
Manchester City did. :8

[Funya Chin]

Manchester City did. :8
From the conference?

;)

We got absolutely hammered, and we will continue to because we've hit a wall. We're a pub team in the Championship.

You're slating lower league clubs as 'crap' because they're not in the top flight and not winning trophies when it's quite clear to me that they're not crap, especially Doncaster as they achieved magnificent feats over the past 5 years.

Would it make you happy if I you'll be the next Manchester City? :8

[Excellent2]

You've hit a pretty big wall haven't you, no points in 6 games, ouch.

[Funya Chin]

I think I'm aware of our current situation and I know where the blame lies, however, I still support my club no matter what :). We've been through tougher times.

I'd cry Matty, lol. We've got here through hard work and dreaming. We don't want no Arabians!
