Pros
-Widgets seem very cool...I want to see how this develops.
-The graphics are better {not necessarily leading-edge, but better}
-Teams playing like teams. I felt that Chelsea didn't play the same way Toronto FC did.
-Easier to get into then 08. I actually felt like I had a chance to beat the AI without resorting to breakaways to score. Moving the ball around and finding a break in the defense seems better then previous years.
-LiveSeason sounded interesting. A lot like NBA 09's DNA I'm assuming


Cons
-No Playground Session (1v1) like the consoles? If you're gonna give a nerfed demo compared to consoles, at least give us the op. to learn the new features in a more relaxed manner
-Collisions seemed gimmicky.
-PLAYERS STILL LOCK ON THE BALL AFTER A FOUL. Very, very, very annoying.
-The Through Ball seems harder to controller then previous years, idk if its just me
-Players still too far away to be "In The Game". Seems like you're just controlling from afar.
-Right Stick Moves are not as clear as its made out to be...

Misc Wish List
-Playground in PC for next year please. I spent hours with the XBOX 08 demo just based on this
-Make more of a focus catching up the PC with the Console versions in terms of what's available. (i.e Moves, ESPN line widget [A part of a bigger problem with EA Sports games period], etc). I'm about to download the demo on My Xbox360 after playing it at gamestop and I can already tell what version I should put my preorder down on.
-Make the tricks actually fool people and/or give players a reason to use them in game. Yea, I can do a Ribona...so what? It doesn't give me an advantage (create space, shake a defender, etc). The only useful move I come back to is the knock-on move to get past defenders.
-For the love of Pele, include some classic teams and/or situations. It would be killer to replay the UEFA CL final from this year or other important games during the season

All in all, an ok game coming out this year. I'm hungry for '10 already tho.

Edit-Forgot EA doesn't have rights to the CL anymore...Konami did that horrible card based game.
