Advantages: In Depth, ultra realistic, easy to use

Disadvantages: Can take time to play games when crowd noise is on

The latest in the Championship Manager series, and not too much different from the others, but this game doesn't need to be.
Quite frankly if you like football simulators you should look no further than this game, no other game on any format can match this game for addiction and reality, and also for ease of use.
Too many other footy sims are hard to understand, and have screens crammed with loads of buttons to press.
Championship Manager is ungongested, and more importantly ultra realistic, what you do really does have a bearing on how your team performs, although the commentary on the game is text based, the added feature of crowd noise when something exciting happens also adds to the atmosphere, beware though to get the crowd effects on you have to run the commentary at a slower speed, which can mean a game taking up to 5 minutes to complete.
Championship Manager could turn you into a computer super manager, it's that good, and of course you can now challenge your mates to a game online.
