Pro Evolution Soccer 2009

Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 (often abbreviated as PES 2009 or simply PES 09) is a club soccer video game from Konami's Pro Evolution Soccer series. It is the sequel to Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 and prior to the game's release, it was announced that developer Shingo Takatsuka had completely reworked the game following heavy criticism of the previous title. The game supports network matches and has less lag than PES 2008. Lionel Messi is the cover star, although Andrés Guardado can be seen on some versions. A new game mode called Become a Legend has been introduced, where you create a player and guide them through a career. Two-stage negotiations have been introduced in Master League mode, where you negotiate first with the club and then with the player. The edit mode has also been improved. The game was replaced by PES 2010.
