Oh god, my day has just been made;
We are pleased to announce a game update for FIFA 09 on Xbox360 and PS3, hopefully arriving sometime next week. In line with community feedback, we have spent time improving the gameplay experience and addressed the following problems:
- Fixed side-stepping issue on lofted through balls
Fixing the issue where a player sidesteps when trying to control a lofted through ball instead of running straight onto it and controlling it, was a top priority for the EAC development team. We’re happy to say that the team at EAC has been able to fix this problem and it will be included in the game update.
- Improved advantage rule: fixed goals being called back for free kicks
There was a problem in the advantage rule whereby the referee would call back a goal if it was scored when the advantage was being played. Instead the referee would give a FK or a PK to the fouled player. This issue has been resolved in the game update. Goals that are going in when a foul is committed will count when they score.
- Improved number assigning in Manager Mode
When signing a player in Manager Mode the player now makes a more sensible decision, based on this position, on which number he would like, whereas previously he would always take the number 2.
- Allowed up to 8 user-controlled teams in Tournament Mode
After installing the game update it will be possible to play in Tournament Mode with up to 8 user-controlled teams. This gives the option to host bigger events with your friends to compete in offline-tournaments. Have fun!
- Removed ability to bring custom teams into Online ranked matches
Everybody has the option to transfer players in his favorite team and create his own custom dream team. This is an option we want to offer everybody to enjoy the feeling of creating own teams and play matches online or offline. When it comes to ranked competitive online matches we think only real teams should compete against each other to keep everybody’s chances even. So with the update it is no longer possible to enter a ranked match with a custom created team. You will still be able to upload your customized team online as in customized starting line-up with the existing players of that team’s roster
- Fixed Stadium 23.Maj lag issue
We fixed a major frame rate issue in 23.Maj stadium.
- Fixed join issue in Online Team Play Lobbies
A game hang issue occurred during search for available OTP game sections within the lobby rooms has been resolved.

They still have dynamic weather to fix. Plus, it doesn't seem like the advantage rule will be fully fixed, as it only mentions goals above. My main gripe was the "crabwalk" on through balls/balls in open space, so now that's going to be fixed, I'm delighted.
It'd be great if they release more updates after this, but I'd be more than happy to settle for this one.

That's good news. I saw last night on the tracker bar, that the game update was coming soon.
On the commentary downloads, there's an option to download different commentators, such as; Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend, but, this is available at a price. 400 MS points for 360 users.

DON'T GET IT!!!
...Or so I heard.
Apparently, it's just taken from the EURO2008 game. Almost literally, in that when the commo's are welcoming you to the game, they mention that it's an "international match" even if you're playing in the Premier League.
A guy was venting about it on a forum, saying how it was wasted MS points.
EDIT: England League? Premier League* ...this isn't PES ¬_¬
:lol:
That's pretty bad then. I wasn't going to get it as I normally play with the commentary off anyway.

Probably just different commentators in the same language...and mostly the same dialogue, I would think.

Just downloading the free commentary update now. Anyone else got it? What's it like, what does it add etc.?
It's 725MB so it should add quite a bit, surely...
EDIT: It seems it's the original commentary file, adding absolutely nothing.
Yeah I downloaded it, played a game, but couldn't really pick out any new phrases.

Be a pro: seasons is wank but addictive. There's no league table, no cups and those daft objectives force you to do shit that limit your enjoyment of the game. I'm doing fine as Lone Striker of the Palace, but a league table better pop up sometime. Also, it would be better if the management of the team was done by the game. It feels unreal being the starter and club captain all of a sudden.
