As FIFA 09 got some serious attention, some modders decided to make a Next Generation Graphics Patch for EA’s FIFA 09 that optimizes and improves the in-game visuals.
The improvements are numerous: new turf, new crowds in different colors, original sky textures, improved lighting, numerous kits, gloves and balls, and many more.
