I don't agree with that. You have a lot of ex-PES players on FIFA09 threads (like me)

And I'm not sure what is better - PES6 or FIFA09 - PES6 has a more fluid movement than FIFA and much better and user-friendlier editing options but cutbacks and back pass exploits are a big flaw as well as body balance usage (anyone called for Adriano?).

On the other side I really enjoy FIFA gameplay and flow of the game. The only "exploit" I have found in FIFA is soft-lobbed shot when the keeper runs towards you (but since he will catch almost any of your ball if you try to dribble him, it's nothing really bad). Speaking of flaw I find in FIFA is long distance shot - as a matter of fact shot physics.

In PES you have positions and turns on which if you perform there you can really expect a goal. In FIFA that's not the case - almost every shot is a roulette or I'm missing something. Speaking of glitches, referee is definetly a waste and I hate when I cannot switch my player until someone touches the ball which is in air no matter how hard I hit the switch button.

So it's something like this:

PES6 - almost perfect fast gameplay but with a big exploit danger
FIFA09 - perfect mid-paced gameplay with a dozens of small glitches which threat to ruin the joy of playing perfect game.

Because of it - I really cannot favour any game. I would call a draw.

But PES2008/09 over FIFA08/09? Definetly FIFA.
