    Seriously EOM this isn't a story on the competitivness of FIFA09 and PES09...It's about FIFA09 beating CoD:WaW to the number 1 spot even though it looked like CoD:WaW was going to get the number 1 spot. It's like you don't read the sources haha.

      EOM (an abbreviation I used to go by) was talking about how it's nice that FIFA has finally gone away with having to compete with PES each year to competing for the best sold game period, which he clearly stated. This is awesome news, I've always loved FIFA games.

    I usually get both Fifa and Pes but not this time, just got Fifa. Prefer it a lot over Pes and glad to see it reaching the number one spot.

    However it wasn't between those two games for the #1 spot, I would have reckoned Cod:WaW would have got the number 1 spot even though I prefer FIFA.
