The best bar none,

This the best football manager game available on consoles. It takes a little getting used to, compared with the 2007 version, but once you get used to the controls you'll realise it really is the cream of the crop. I don't know what Stephen W Newton was expecting. This is for the football purist. It's a thousand times deeper than LMA Manager so if you want the full experience of football management on consoles, then you must buy this game. My only gripe is that you can only have 10 leagues from 3 different nations, but that must be the limitations on the 360.

FOOTBALL MANAGER 2008 REVIEW,
By
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Football Manager 2008 (Xbox 360) (Video Game)
HAVING BEEN AN ORIGINAL FAN OF LMA MANAGER I WAS DUBIOUS ABOUT BUYING FOOTBALL MANAGER BUT SUCCUMED AS THERE WAS NO SIGN ON THE HORIZON OF ANOTHER LMA. I ORIGINALLY BOUGHT FOOTBALL MANAGER 2007 AND WAS INSTANTLY IMPRESSED BY THE INFO AND DATA. IT HAD SO MUCH MORE DEPTH THAN LMA. MY ONLY GRIPE WAS THE LACK OF A 3D ENGINE. FM 2007 HAD THE ODD GLITCH OR TWO SO WHEN 2008 CAME OUT I WAS HOPING THEY HAD IRONED OUT THE PROBLEMS. WHAT CAN I SAY, FOR THE DIE HARD FOOTBALL FAN THIS IS EXCELLENT. I CANT STOP PLAYING AND THE WORSTE THING IS IT ACTUALLY TELLS YOU HOW MANY HOURS, DAYS AND WEEKS YOU HAVE BEEN PLAYING IT. FRIGHTENING! I CANT SWITCH IT OFF. IF YOU HAVE EVER HAD DREAMS OF BEING ALEX FERGUSON OR ANY UP AND COMING MANAGER THIS MUST BE THE CLOSEST THING YOU CAN GET. BUY IT, PLAY IT, BUT PROMISE ME YOU'LL TURN IT OFF BEFORE DAYLIGHT!
