FIFA 09 Producer Interview: Dave Rutter

Can we get all the English Premier League stadiums, or all the stadiums for the greatest leagues in 360 and PS3 version?
White Hart Lane must be there please ;-)

Can't wait for this puppy to be released.

are they still selling their soul to the s*n? if thats what I have to have my name sprawled over in manager mode, then I'll still be going for PES. If not, then it may be the first time since 2002 that I have chosen FIFA first, looks like it could be a pretty good game

that's kinda scary he didn't know what a quick restart was.

hopefully the euro 2008 generic stadia are in the game instead of that goddamned estadio de la artes.

I'm sick of that stadium.

I hope that if they don't have a ton of authentic stadiums that they have like 6 generic stadiums that they use randomly for teams without real stadiums.

I never thought I would see the day when the summer football titles would be a stopgap for me between NHL and FIFA instead of being the feature attractions of the annual sports games releases. Can't wait for this.

Two things I'm interested in since most of my other questions have already been answered: Are player stats laid out differently/better in the menus? It's way too hard to effectively compare two players now as #1 they only show you 5 or 6 key stats and #2 they're all the same color. Any color coding a la pro evo? (95 and up is red, 90-95 is orange etc)?

Also can I choose to have a defender come up for all corners? (a la Terry and Vidic for example)

Strange, huh? I'm the same way. Maybe next year it'll be level across the board. The sad thing is I can't remember how long it's been that I'm actually waiting for the newest EA Sports games. They really are getting it together. Maybe they aren't the Devil, after all.

Can you please tell me if you guys finally added a lot of stadiums???i mean,for a game with a huge amount of teams it is really disappointing to see just a few stadiums.

They added 15 more stadiums this year. Not really sure which ones as of yet.
