    We'd like to see the player rewarded for his skills more, that the game was fairer. There remain plenty of moments in Winning Eleven 9 where you'll scream with frustration not because 'that's football' but because the game does something that's completely out of your control, and for that reason we have to mark it down.

    A scintillating performance, marred only by the odd foul.

    The gameplay is nigh on perfection, the pace is perfect, the shooting has been tweaked subtly and, with the addition of the R2 shooting, it really feels like a new game. This is the first time since WE6 that most die-hard fans will notice a real change and a real sense of newfound enjoyment in the game.

    The greatest soccer game on the market! Perfect control, intelligent opponent and teammate AI, and online play help make this game the ultimate soccer experience! You must play the amazing Master League Mode to get the full experience, its RPG elements will have you hooked in a short time! I can't stop playing this game, thank you Konami!… Expand

    Konami strikes again! Can it get any better than this. The physics engine is unbelievable with realistic bounces, slide tackles, dribbling, shots, etc. Although it still doesn't own all of the licenses, once it does, FIFA will be wiped off the mat for good. The six star setting is a little unrealistic (magic goals for the computer, etc.) but is still worth the challenge. Buying classic players is a gem as usual as well as the access to classic squads. You can change teams around easily, and the Master League mode had gotten more in-depth as the series continues. I can't wait for the PS3 version of this franchise. Well worth the money and time to play the game.… Expand

    You have GOT to be kidding. Maybe the low quality of Fifa has made this game seem good by comparison. Terrible player auto-selection, sluggish responses, poor team-mate AI, strikers who can't hit a barn door at ten paces, unsatisfying winning tactics (you'll do far better simply sprinting past defenders than trying to pass your way to a good opening)....it's RUBBISH. If anyone is old enough to remember Sensible Soccer, they might have some idea of what it's like to play a football game that's actually fun rather than merely good looking. This might be the best 3D soccer game ever made. As they've all been atrocious, however, it isn't saying very much.… Expand
