FIFA09 , In The Right Direction But Still ...
Not there for me ..
Yes the ball pyhsics are there and the players reaction times are now spot on, twisting turning happens in an instant as it does when you press for a pass or a shot it happens right away.
But, with gamepad in hand, even with this instant reaction to control a player and the passing and shooting, it still does not feel as if I am in total control. For me its down to the feel of weight, and for me there is none. Press for a shot , it happens in an instant, but it does not feel as if I took that shot because its so light , even with the spot on reaction times, it still feels as though when I press that button I have set off an animation (ok i have but you know what I mean) and its carried out, rather than the push of that shot button being translated to me and I feel that I have stuck that ball myself.
And that is all that I feel is wrong with FIFA09, that and the sprinting! You pess sprint and even with the fastest players it does not convey a feel in that player is bombing up the park.
