I created this thread because I've been reading a lot vague, general posts that PES2009 has room for improvement. Therefore, I am creating this thread to get an idea of what exactly improvements should be patched in the retail version of PES 2009. If for some reason the retail version includes...

I have to agree, having played both it really boils down to game play vs licenses. FIFA09 game play (to me) is robotic and sometimes appears scripted as others have mentioned. Having said that it's odd that some insist on casting judgment on a demo by comparing it to the full version of...

Ok here is video 1<--click here video 2<--click here I'm not able to get the same kind of score. The GKs are for the most part doing their job.

thanks, trying it now

Ok, I tried it a few times and I am not getting the same result. Regardless of what controller one can use it's basically using the button that controls long passing + special control button. That's what gives the ball a little extra lift in altitude (from what I can tell). You can also use...

thanks, let me try it.

It's nothing for anyone to master, it's the player attributes that allow this. As I've said before, playing the same team I can get the ball to go that far but I don't get the amount of altitude, lift or height (whatever you want to call it) as seen in that video. So I ask if you or your...

Something is not right with that video. I've played the same team/player(s) and I can't get the ball that high up but can get it to go that far in the air using "long pass" which is the O button. There is a mod available that lets you change the attributes of a player. Were any of the players...

also use the settings.exe to turn off videos at the end of the game.

This is true, FIFA 09 lacks in depth attacking. No matter what I tried, including various usages of the finesse button, I found that shooting only has two modes: ON or OFF.

I couldn't agree more. It makes no sense to complain now when it's only a demo. And, from what others said, the demo is based on a incomplete version of the game. It's like watching a car being manufactured on the assembly line. As you watch the chassis of a car being painted you think...

ok, I figured it out. If you want to curl the ball on the move use the red B button to charge you long pass. Once the ball is airborne use the left thumbstick to guide it's direction. A slight tap is all you should need.

You misunderstood the content of my post, man!

I tend to agree here. If you have it set on the easiest level the GKs aren't very "active" but if you up the difficulty I've notice that the GK is more proactive and will deflects goals at the farthest reach of his range. I wouldn't expect a GK to grab a shot aiming for the right side of the...

I find that if you fill the power meter of your shot to about 1/2 way or less (depending on where you are shooting from) seem to work best for me. I believe that this will change once you player beings to get tired.

Good observation on the situation between games. It's amazing how some try to differentiate game play between FIFA09 and PC version but don't explain themselves. I've played both and found that the game play between the PC and console version of FIFA09 to be essentially the same. Therefore...

I actually see FIFA09 for what it is based on what I like/want. The ball is kicked further then normal thus the AI has the opportunity to steal it more with very little contact. IMO, contributes to why there is rarely any cards called. Furthermore, the animation and the ball's floaty flight...

On the xbox 360 controller to do a curl/swerve: use the d-pad to start a FK -position the camera so that the goal is slightly to the side -push the left thumb stick left and tap the red "B" button at the same time -continue to hold left thumbstick as the player begins to kick the ball On the PS3...

But they are doing that now on FIFA09. They call it "curving" as it doesn't curl like in RL. IE: you have the option to delay the bend after the ball is kicked. So what may look like a straight kick will actually turn at the last moment.

^^ That was a very informative, unbais post, cheers! This is were the AI players attempt to mimic real life movement. IMO, you shouldn't be able to turn on a dime, kick on a dime, tackle on a dime, etc. There should be proper animation when a player goes from a running stance to a tackle...
