ISS was amazing. I remember it was the first game to introduce player characteristics like Ravanelli's grey hair and Roberto Baggio's pony tail. Also, the Cruyff turn on that ame was immense. I think we're talking N64 when I got that one. Cheers guys, I'm really happy that this stirred up the right emotions and differing opinions... People really feel strongly about these games! @ Coverter09, thanks for that.

I was a pro evo fan from back in the days when it was called International Superstar Soccer (go on Roberto Carlos up front for my old skool crowd, you know what I mean ;-) on the Playstation. But I burrowed FIFA 09 from a friend bout three days ago after various arguements about how better pro evolution 2009 was and thought I'd take a chance. To mine suprise FIFA 09 is a massive step in the right direction that my loyalties have been tested. I now own a copy of FIFA 09 and my flatemate can no longer stand the sight of me lol. Times change which Konami don't seem to understand. Fair enough if its not broke don't fix it but I mean c'mon the online lag is ridicoulous in 2009 which I was excited about. Touching up the graphics and shooting physics does not justify a years work by Konami its unacceptable. I'm not saying they have lost another Pro evo fan because I now own both. I'm just saying fix up Konami and fast before us fan who made your series as popular as it is by just word of mouth (no need for commercials galore) will be gone forever. I can’t lie.

It really has been one of the biggest turnarounds in gaming history - I really believe that. FIFA used to be laughable but it has stepped up ridiculously well! haha, I like the analogy... More fitting than the ones I mentioned about girlfriends! I could have gone on all day and night about what impresses me about FIFA. I guess the review I wrote on here covered that ;o) @Gibbo, I think it was how much I once loved PES that really made it more of a blow. @Gavinox,

You're absolutely spot on and the exact same thing happened to myself and my PES friends. I'm on FIFA09 and the thing that blew me away was the sheer depth of tricks and skills they've put in. I can't help casting a glance over to PES though, like a guilty Man Utd fan checking if his LOCAL team has avoided relegation.

Infact I might pick up FIFA 09 soon.
