i like pes since it's started but I read the inf about the new things on pes 09' what they included which is great! but i don't like the idea about the other leagues not been fully licensed and that is something that I wish they can change or fix so all teams can be licensed on the game,but still the best game to play and have fun!

A Definite Improvement on PES 2008
I fully admit I have long been a Pro Evolution fan over the FIFA series, but I also must admit that I came very close to making the switch after last year's PES and having read all the great reviews for the new FIFA. However, I went with my gut and gave PES 2009 a shot, in part b/c the price of $39.99 for a new copy of the game is tough to beat. Boy, amd I glad I did.First, the differences between Konami and FIFA are the same: PES 2009 is for true fans of the sport who genuinely understand how the game is played; if, however, you're looking for the arcade-style gameplay, then FIFA is your game. They have slowed the ball physics and player movement down a bit from last year, so the build-up play is more deliberate in PES 2009, which I think is a positive. Also, you cannot turn on a dime while dashing like you could last year, so you'll have to make smarter passes and movements. I view all of these as positives.Although the graphics are a bit better in FIFA, this year's PES is a vast improvement on last year's. The stadiums and crowds, as well as player animations are better. Perhaps most importantly, they corrected whatever problem caused the terrible framerate on replays and cutscenes in PES 2008. Overall, I would say this is finally the next-gen advancement that the series needed, although as FIFA illustrates, there is still room for improvement.Ah, the licensing issue...everyone's favorite complaint about PES. Well, frankly, it doesn't bother me that much, especially given the extensive editing feature of the game. First, many teams are fully licensed (Man Utd, Liverpool, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Villareal, Espanyol, all of the Italian and Dutch Leages, French League, etc.). So, Arsenal is still called North London; well, just open up the Edit mode and change the team name, all of the players are already featured, so changing the team name takes all of about 30 seconds. One disappointment was that the Spanish League used to be fully licensed, but now it is only about 50% licensed. However, once again, just change the team name...the uniforms are almost identical anyway, and once again, if it really bothers you, then edit the jerseys. Finally, the UEFA Champions League license is a pretty cool feature and adds a cinematic feel to the game.Overall, the gameplay is what makes PES 2009 a better game than FIFA in my book. That, and I love the Konomi's Master League. I have yet to try out the new Become a Legend Mode, so I can't make a recommendation on that one way or another. Nevertheless, if you're a long-time PES fan, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

No Fifa-Pes Debate
Things are simple: Fifa is for those who like to WATCH soccer; Pes is for those who like to PLAY soccer. Being soccer games is barely the only thing they have in common, cause both games aim to targets that are not necessarily the same and, of course, offer different gameplaying experiences. My choice is Pes because is the game that hits closer to the things I want to do when I'm playing and the things that are shown in game... that's gameplay pals, and I preffer it much more than thousands of stadiums and licenses.
