Thursday, 4 September 2008

"Hey wait a minute", I'm sure most of you are saying as you glance at the title to this article, "Football Manager? Why don't you cover a good game?" Well. You can all sit down and shut up, Because I love the football manager series like my own firstborn child.

First, The facts. It releases on November 19Th, and will release on the PC, mac, and uhh.. psp. Managing director Miles Jacobson has stated there wont be any home console versions of 09, compared to 07 and 08 which were both released on the xbox.
Now, A shiny video for you to watch.



The guy focuses on Football manager handheld first, Talking about the ability to select more then a single league, Like the PC version, and a choice of... TWO SKINZ. OMG. The handheld version also has a 2d match engine. so yeah, it looks like the PSP edition has been brought up to speed with.. Football manager 2007 maybe?

Now, On to the PC version.

expect more feedback from the assistant manager, which is great, And an expansion of the medias involvement. There are press conferences, Allowing you to cultivate relationships with journo's and the public, and transfer rumours.

You can ask your players to learn special moves, theres a total rewrite of the transfer system,
and the match engine is now in 3d. Although, i'm sure that LMA manager 2003 had a 3d match engine. You know, Back on the playstation.

And the big news?? You can play as a female manager. the guy was really excited about this.

While researching for this blog, I came across a pretty decent site called The True Football Manager, Where a guy reports on his antics in the game. Check it out if your into footie management games.
