As Is The lot of the PC gamer, this isn't the same game that is currently looking very tasty on the next-gen consoles, but as ever is instead the umpteenth iteration of 'old' FIFA. As if to emphasise the point, our review copy announced itself with an all-singing intro video that ended with the words FIFA 08 emblazoned on our PC's screen.
We spent a couple of minutes making sure the game was indeed FIFA 09, and that there were indeed some features unique to the PC: specifically two all-new mouse and keyboard control systems, perhaps included as an acknowledgment that it's virtually impossible to satisfactorily set up a joypad. First up, you can control the player with the keyboard and pass using the mouse, something that is initially like trying to simultaneously rub your belly and pat your head.
However, with practice it becomes vaguely manageable, enabling you to genuinely play the ball into space. A nonsense, but there's more, with a mouse-oriented mode that sees the player in possession haplessly chasing the cursor as yqu make him dance around the pitch.
It's a bit like driving a car with your tongue, but perversely is all the more satisfying if you manage to score. All the same, while it's gratifying to see some concessions made to the PC, we struggle to see either control method replacing the humble joypad. This year, goal feasts seem to be the order of the day, as the review kicked off with a win, followed by a succession of high-scoring affairs, accompanied by the crowd singing the sanitised, "You're so bad it's unbelievable.
Elsewhere, the Be A Pro mode where you control one player over the season is still an utterly absurd concept, and there's a footwear-sponsored live update feature that also enables you to buy further leagues.
The commentary is still the best around, the graphics are OK, and there are about 10 million official licenses. All the same, we've seen it all before. What year is it again? This name is inaccurate, as I spent 90 minutes chasing after the ball, trying to nick it from my own team, refusing to pass the ball once it was in my possession and acting silly during free kicks.
I was as professional as a fart in a board meeting. If the problem with Microsoft DirectX continues, upgrade your video card. Direct x for fifa Go To Solution. Best Answer. Direct x for fifa 09 Hi, You are having an issue with your DirectX.
