SchizoidFreud Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 PS3 FIFA 09 graphics 'at least as good' as 360 version PS3 FIFA 09's graphics will be "at least as good" as 360 FIFA 09's, EA has promised. Speaking to VideoGamer.com in an interview, FIFA 09 PS3 and Xbox 360 producer David Rutter said that some multiplatform game developers had in the past struggled to get the PS3 version up to scratch simply because they started working on Microsoft's console first. However, Rutter said that EA development on PS3 has now "caught up" and it has achieved "parity" on its multiplatform games. Rutter said: "This year we've done a heap of work to make sure that the actual visuals of the game are at least as good on PS3 as 360, to the extent where we've had meetings with executives that have basically been fine tooth combing almost, taken a microscopic look at what's going on to make sure they are as good as each other, and they are. There's no graphical features or level of rendering or anything else that's different between the consoles this year." When asked why such attention was needed to get the PS3 version to the same level as the 360 version, Rutter replied: "A lot of it is to do with the fact that when all the game teams around the world started work on console games they ended up making a 360 version before a PS3. So tools and technologies were there to support 360 in advance of PS3, and the investment required to do both is obviously an up front cost, and it takes a little while to catch up." He added: "Yeah. As far as we're concerned we're there. There is parity, as it's called, between 360 and PS3 for us. We're chuffed about that." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 with all the pre season games begining it wouldve been so much better if this game released 1st august. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HundredProofSam Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 ^^ i kinda agree....this is the time when people are dying for some new football action and people would jump at a new football game....but at the same time, the reason its scheduled for after september is so they can get all the team rosters and other licensing details like updated jerseys right.....with player transfers going on till the end of the transfer window and some leagues (like serie a) starting later than others, it makes sense to release the game after september rather than have roster and team updates after the game is released peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDribbler Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Well..Brotha...some more goodie newz: A renowned team visiting the EA Canada facilities in Vancouver and getting their hands on the pc and nex gen console version had to say the following: FIFA 09 is truly where next gen football begins. A few key points: 1. Be a pro is 4 seasons offline 2. They have a new EA locker where the game tactics and formations an stuff by the fans can be exchanged! 3. They are also implementing a new online rule for quitters. If you quit in the first 3 minutes no penalty. Quit between 3 and 5 minutes you get a DNF and quit after 5 minutes you get a 5 minute loss and a really bad rating. 4. Collision system is phenomenal! You really have to see it in action. 5. New jostling system is also amazing. 6. Ball physics and passing is improved drastically. 7. The pace of the game is much better. 8. The manager mode is pretty much the same, as well the edit mode. 9. There will be some major announcements at Leipzig about the exclusive ps3 mode. 10. Player fatigue has been improved. The PC version of FIFA 09 has undergone a massive overhaul this season and is looking a real treat with the new mouse and keyboard controls that remind us of a certain football game on the Wii, be it with much much more accurate controls. The focus... a much more innovative control scheme. The next-gen version of FIFA 09 though stole the show. From the moment you get your hands on it you will realise how much this game has come along. We were pleasantly surprised at the progress the team here in Vancouver have made over the course of the year. The focus was "250 Key Changes", and its clear they did deliver! ----------- Point # 3: Woooh..needed that for dickhead quitters !!! way to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclops Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 If the 3rd point is really implemented i'll be more than pleased...I was fed up of people running away when they were losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 i really wished they could add a bit more razzle dazzle to the manager mode as it gets boring after it gets repetitive with the same messages popping up during the interviews and also the common problem i noticed was how only the user team could make any signing he wants whereas the a.i just has players aging and after awhile these teams become weak whereas those who have young players with an average rating of 75 each player becomes the strongest in a few seasons as they simply dont buy players.

SchizoidFreud Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Fifa 09 Dated One of the biggest titles of the year goes on sale October 3rd. With consumer anticipation for the game already sky high – and some hardline PES supporters even admitting that it could be a Pro Evo beater – EA has exclusively revealed to MCV that FIFA ‘09 is set for release on October 3rd. The latest in the ultra-successful FIFA series is scheduled for release on PS3, 360, Wii, PC, PS2, PSP, DS and mobile platforms, and boasts considerable improvements over last year’s edition. “We’ve made over 250 improvements from last year and we wanted to give the team the time they needed to make the best FIFA game possible,” said senior product manager Trevor Uzice. “We’re continuing to build on the solid foundation from last year which saw us create the most successful FIFA both in terms of sales and quality.” Game improvements include a 20-player online mode, more responsive first time shooting, improved goalkeeper AI, and an over-the-top arcade mode built specifically for the Wii.With consumer anticipation for the game already sky high – and some hardline PES supporters even admitting that it could be a Pro Evo beater – EA has exclusively revealed to MCV that FIFA ‘09 is set for release on October 3rd.
