While new football games on the next-gen consoles use all eight buttons on the controllers, this two-button system is more than adequate. Using a dual-sliding Nokia N96, we controlled the players with the five-way nav key and the two dedicated gaming keys under the top slide for passing and shooting. Playing FIFA 09 on a Nokia phone feels like playing a soccer game on the Sega Master System. These aberrations aside, the graphics are definitely passable for a mobile phone game. Stepping onto the park, the graphics look like PC game graphics from the mid-90s all the characters are designed from a limited number of polygons, which makes the goalkeeper look like a hunchback from behind during goal kicks and the ref looks like a praying mantis as he hands out yellow cards with arms that end in pointy blades instead of hands. Of course, all game modes lead to the pitch and to what we hoped would be some fast and furious football. FIFA 09 features five main game modes: exhibition matches are called Scenarios, pre-set mid-game challenges, a full season, custom made tournaments and penalty shoot-outs. Entering the game through the menus looks good, and the slick graphics are complemented by some sunny-sounding Latin pop music.
