this came is awful. its far to difficult. Ive played football manager all my life and loved every one until 08. why have they made this one so hard?? whats the point?? i'm not playing it because i'm going to become a professional manager, or want to!! to sum up how terrible this game is and how flawed it is, i won promotion with hoffenheim and then found myself with a lower reputation than before!! its boring losing!

I have played pretty much all of the Football Manager and old Champ Man series, way back to the 99/00 series... which was great fun, if a little simple!
Over the years S.I have made improvements to the game, to the point of last year when FM2007 was released and what a great game to play this was. So much so that I saw no reason why I should not invest another £25-30 in the latest installment.
I honestly would have got more joy out of spending that money on a new tin of paint, letting my 70-year old neighbour paint their fence and then being invited round to watch the thing dry, and then coming back the next day to see how the second coat dries... this game is that bad...
Firstly, I'd like to pint out ... Read More:

I've been playing this game for a while now so I think I have enough experience with it to write a review.
The first thing I can say is that if you're an expert at Championship manager/Football manager, then you'll probably excel that this game, or any other future FM game for that matter. However, a lot of users are ones learning the ropes to this game, and this is the worst introduction to a great game series that I have ever encountered. Others have mentioned annoying glitches; 4-2-4, the corner exploit, etc. Yes, they are incredibly annoying, but it doesn't end there. The game is totally unrealistic. My latest New game (I've just begun a new one), exluding the friendlies, all my 8 league games so far have resulted in the injury ... Read More:

This game does at first seem to be a decent upgrade on the previous football manager...more in-depth gameplay, such as being able to choose what type of feeder club you want (after having been at the club for a while) which is great for boosting your finances, and much more. For all this I would have given it a four or even five stars.
BUT, there are those odd moments, which seem to be more prevalent than in the previous games. Now, in reality, there are numerous times when a team that has more shots on target loses. But when you've lost for the sixth time in a season when you've had as many as thirty shots ON target to the oponents three, it can get quite frustrating.
And finally; this game prides itself on its realism. Its lack of ... Read More:

I've been playing these games since they introduced the 2D match engine back in CM4 (don't get confused - the real Championship Manager of old is made by Sports Interactive and it's this one).
FM2008 does seem much harder than previous games and it's been more of a gargantuan task to take the mighty Stockport County to European glory. Sometimes you get the impression that the AI just won't let you win certain games, no matter what tactics you try (and it's best to pay attention to detailed tactics and save your own versions, rather than relying on the presets).
Then there's the inexplicable 8-1 drubbings as your meticulously constructed team mysteriously fail to show up. Sometimes the post-match anger option just isn't sufficient ... Read More:
