Lifelike Player Reactions
Soccer matches are filled with a myriad of sounds, gestures and
emotions. Until now this firsthand experience has been missing
from video game simulations, but FIFA Soccer 09 brings the
richness of the world's game to life with its lifelike player
reaction system. Through this, players on your squad react to the
events on the pitch, both through gestures and in their native
tongues. These can be emotional responses like complaints about a
call, or about the way the game is unfolding, but they can also
be directional, such as indicating that a player is offsides,
calling for a ball/directing where it should be passsed and
waving off a defensive assignment. Not only does this smart
cooperative AI help you in the field, but it also injects soul
into a game loved by millions around the world and one it is you
task to conquer in FIFA 09.
