experience with its latest instalment, Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 (PES 2009). The main upgrades from year to year in sports simulators are the expected features such as extended and updated rosters, teams, players and stadiums, with extra game modes perhaps and improved AI; this is where PES 2009 conforms to the norm. The AI is more intelligent, there's a heightened sense of realism with unique camera angles and improved graphics as well as the functionality of PES 2009 over Xbox Live and in the brand new Become a Legend mode where players start off as an amateur footballer who becomes scouted out to play for a top club and then must prove that he can wing it with the pros.

control interface, only made possible by the unique nature of the Wii controllers offered a completely new way for players to interact with PES. One year on and the programmers have listened to feedback from gamers and made PES 2009 on Wii an even more impressive title.The new game will retain the intuitive point and click interface used to control both the player in possession of the ball and to send those around him on to runs into space. However, a new traditional control system using either a Wii Remote or Classic controller has also been implemented.Using a Wii Remote held sideways or a classic controller, the secondary player can control the game in a manner familiar to existing versions of PES for other formats. Thus, they can control using familiar PES controls while their co-op player orchestrates their player and the rest of the team using the bespoke Wii system.An improved defense system will allow players to close down their opposition with more precision using the Z button, while a new targeting system sees the player steering where they place the ball when shooting. Coupled with better AI for the CPU-controlled players and opposition, the result is a more free-flowing and faster paced simulation. Set pieces have alsobeen reworked, with more precision on free kicks and a wider range of corners than in the previous game.In keeping with versions for other formats, PES 2009 for Wii will also feature the UEFA Champions League, the addition of the ever-popular Master League for the first time on this format plus the return of an enhanced Champions Road competition, an enhanced Edit Mode, more online gameplay possibilities, and a Mii Training sub-game systemImproved defensive controlsSecond player can use 'Sideways' controllerChampions leag

Overall
The first thing I want to say is that this is the best soccer games that I've ever played. When I got the game last year, I doubt it might repeat the dissapointment of the previous version, but I was convinced that it's the best game when installed and started playing.

Gameplay
There is a big improvement of gameplay compared to the previous versions. Players are now equiped with more tricks but it might take a while to figure out some complicated tricks. Some players' unique figures are also expressed in the game. For example, Cristiano Ronaldo's pose before his freekick, or Torres' celebration are very well reflected.
There is also a Europe Champions Legue mode, which allows you to choose a team and fight for the glory. This is the first time PES can afford a license of a big competition in the game.
The best thing a love about this game is the newly designed "Become a legend mode". In this mode, you can create a player of your own, sign for clubs and start training that player. You can also change the appearnance of your player, choose a new pair of boots or take on a nice pair of sun glasses. After creating the player, you will then play a scouting match, from which different clubs will offer you. Based on how well you played in this scout match, and the level of difficulty, clubs with different levels will give offers, but dont expect a big club like ManU or Chelsea right after your first match. After one season, there will be other clubs offering you new deals. If you are bored of the current clubs, or the club does not offer you the right salary for your talents, you can always change to a better option. The feeling of being offered by your favourite clubs is just great. And it took me a hard time to decide whether to joine ManU or Real Madrid since I love both teams, but then decided to play for ManU.
The only weakness of this game is that it can't afford all the license. That's why you will find many teams do not have the correct jerseys. However, this is just a minor problem as you can download and install Kit server, a great tool for PES. It allows you to update the lastest jersey design, boots, stadium, or even advertisement boards around the field, and this tool is free!
Conclusion
With no doub, PES 2009 is the best soccer game that you can find. With great graphic design and creative gameplay, you will stay hours in front of your computer to be the new Europe Champion with your favourite team, or become the world most famoust player. Despite the lack of license, the game provides great flexibility through Kit Server, which allows you to modify to the smallest appearence aspect of the game.
Advantages: Stunning graphics, plenty of game modes Disadvantages: Lack of team licenses
Atter being disappointed by PES 2008, I was very interested to see what this game has to offer.
I must admit that I was very impressed. The UEFA Champions League and the Be a Legend modes were welcome additions. The graphics are simply stunning with all the players looking very realistic.
Once again PES 2009 has proved its superiority in the football games department. The gameplay is as good as ever, now making you work harder to score. You can ...

Advantages: Everything is amazing! Disadvantages: You need a great computer to run it
Last year Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 really disappointed me and I bet all the fans of the game in the world.
So this year they decided to start all over again from a scratch and fortunately its was a great chance! excuse me a HUGE AND PERFECT chance. This year there is no other game that can match with Pro Evolution Soccer 09.
Everytime I play it the graphics kill me, IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL and REAL that you can even see players veins, their muscules ...

Proevolutionsoccer (PES) 2009 is a footballcomputer game spread across several different platforms- I have the xbox 360 version so my review will be based on that although I don't believe there to be much difference between this and the PS3 version.
The Pros--- The game is quite realistic, players think like real players (although they don't look like them), the controls are smooth, and you will never score the same goal twice!
It now feature the champions league licence--- although this is quite a boring league and a lot of the teams playing in it don't have licensing so you find your self being bored!
The replay system has also been revamped making this a lot smoother and free.
If you have a webcam for your 360 there is a continuing feature from PES 2006 which lets you take a picture of your face and stick it on a player ...

Manufacturer's product description
It's back, and this years Pro Evolution Soccer has been reworked from the ground up! New player models, AI elements and physics routines all combine to create the most advanced and realistic football game ever, but at the heart of PES 2009 are two new modes designed to make players rethink the way they approach the game. 'PES Unites' is the key phrase Konami is using to sum up the ethos of the new game. PES 2009 also improves on its many existing game modes and adds a number of new ways to play the game. Central to this is the new 'Become a Legend' solo mode, which casts the user as a midfielder or striker within a match. Using a default vertical camera view, the player starts as a rookie pro at the start of their career, and charts the many highs and lows of becoming a professional player. An extension of the popular 'Fix' mode, the 'Become a Legend' mode sees the player operate in their favoured attacking position, and work as part of the overall team as opposed to controlling every member as in a normal game.
