Did anybody get it today?

 

[Callum93]

I pre-ordered it on amazon yesterday.

You?

 

[Ste]

I didn't get it today but probably will over the weekend.

 

[Callum93]

I have got it just now 🙂

 

[Ste]

You will have to tell me what it is like, I have heard good reviews and bad.

I have also heard that there is a problem with players getting injured every game. -lol-

 

[StickyXD]

Naa hopefully crimbo.
FM08 i have.

 

[Callum93]

-lol- well is that only for people playing with Chelsea? -lol-

 

[StickyXD]

Lol does anyone fancy a online game on FM08?

 

[Callum93]

Na we are all playing FM09 -lol-

I've started the game and it seems quite good so far. Not a fan of STEAM though. Can't access the editor 🙁

Just got this today, i can't stand the 3D match engine so i use the 2D Classic and players make far too many mistakes.
On the good side, the Assistant Manager thing is good when it comes to matches as it shows your weaknesses, don't trust it 100% though.
The player abilities are alot more realistic this time, and the added media things are alot better.
I'll play someone on an online game if they want?

Oh and you can access the Editor 🙂
You can find the data editor at Steam/steamapps/common/football manager 2009/tools/data editor

 

[Callum93]

Apparently only for Vista... I'll look later though, thanks 🙂

 

[Edd Bundy]

Anyone else got this yet?

 

[Ste]

I am still debating if I should buy it. I have heard very good reviews and I have heard rubbish reviews. From screenshots the 3D match engine looks really good. I get told in the game there is a problem with injuries, like a player gets injured every match and even if they get a stubbed toe they are out for months. ~lol~

 

[Edd Bundy]

3D thing is the worst thing about it lol

Also the injuries don't occur if you dont over use the training.

It's a good addition to anyones collection.

It might seem crap because we are all used to it being 3D.

What is Football Manager?

 

[Ste]

It is the biggest football management game around. You pick a any team around the world to manage, it is a very realistic game.

There is a demo download here --> http://www.footballmanager.com/

[Ste]

It is but I am not so sure of the differences between them.
