Thanks to those guys at Fifa Soccer Blog, they've managed to get a few scans online of FIFA 09. The upcoming PSM3 is supposed to have a massive 7 page-feature on FIFA 09, hitting stands on June 5th. Can't Wait!

PSM3: "EA'slatest silences its sternest critic...yes, us."



Is that an F'n Referee in the background!!?




Oooohh My..........

Wow.

[J-Unit40]

Wow. That looks fantastic.

Amazing! I wish Madden and NCAA would have evolved on Next Gen the way FIFA has. Those look like real photos of the players.

Yep! I read that referees, linemen, benches, and coaches will be on the sideline in FIFA 09.

Looks nice...but EA has relied on updating graphics for far too long. Going to need something more than that to make FIFA 09 an upgrade. They were on the right track with 08, so double fingers crossing.

I will buy it no matter what, but how about having players move towards passes instead of just sitting there and waiting for them? That would be the BIGGEST change that would make me happy.

Ahhh....forgot to cite my sources lol....Let's keep an eye on this awesome Fifa website, because those guys already have the magazines with the colossal news...I'm guessing Monday they'll start unleashing the news

Also, If 10vs10 online indeed is really going to be implemented into Fifa 09, that would be simply off the hizzain. No longer would AI/Switching to AI teammates have any part in the online component. Just Imagine: 20 Os'ers on the pitch, everyone playing there position correctly and as sim as possible ....Mind-boggling indeed!
