Amazon have published that FIFA 09 will be released on October 3rd 2008!

Fans of the game have been awaiting this news and will be keen to mark it in their diary as the date to get hold of the latest installation of their favourite football simulation.

Discussion has been rife on our forums over when the game will be released and we are happy to be able to give you the news!

FIFA 09 is available on Amazon to pre-order, although a release date is yet to be announced by the retailer.

Just two platforms are currently available, but more are expected to arrive soon, and we’ll update you as soon as they do - but all you X-Box and PS3 owners can grab their copy first by clicking the link below…

The “Wii” version of FIFA 09 will concentrate on the fun element of the Wii, rather than being a serious football simulation.  Gone will be the realistic graphics of other nex-gen consoles and instead will appear the cartoon-like figures more associated with children’s games.

This fits in well with the ethos of Nintendo when designing the Wii, that anyone can pick up a controller and have fun, but will clearly not be what serious FIFA games are looking for.

Above is yet another screenshot from the new version of EA Sports’ soccer simulation, FIFA 09.

As you can see, there appears to be a linesman running in the background of the shot, which would hint that there will be “in play” officials on this game, which will be a welcome addition in 09.

In the past, officials have flitted from being in the game on one version, and not the next, and as they weren’t visible during gameplay on the pitch in FIFA 08, it would seem their return was imminent in this version.

We have been away for a little while, but decided to come back and give you a look at what the new FIFA will look like!

As we approach the summer, with the domestic football season in the UK ending, and the Euro 2008 tournement holding little or no interest , attention has started to turn to what people want from the next installation of the FIFA series.

The Euro 2008 game will hold a little interest during the summer, and the enhanced gameplay should give some useful hints as to what we can expect from FIFA 09, but as more and more firm answers come out, the interest will grow.
