It's my goty for 2009 thus far, albeit I've got plenty of catching up to do on older games before I can confirm that.
The online side is just amazing, I've got 3 mates who I play online with alot and it's just such fun playing online as a team with them. It's to me what makes this generation so amazing :).
Best gameplay for a football game etc I've ever had, and you can turn all controls to manual (I.e. passes dont go automatically to a player, shots arn't 'guided' toward goal), and it feels like you're in total control.
So er yeah, awesome!
