Overall this game, as expected, is not as well developed as the PC version, but it still is an amazingly realistic game to play. The squads,tactics,media mind games and general buzz about the game second to none (bar its bigger brother, the PC version). There are over 600 playable teams in 30 leagues with a fully updated database, with all of the latest players. There is also a very good customisability (if thats a word) to this game, from things like skins to tactics to anything else in the game. One disadvantage to this game is that there isnt a match engine, like in the PC models, so you have to sit and read out what is happening, which ...  Read the complete review

As a keen football manager fan every year i buy this series of football manager for the last 4 years. I cannot fault this portable football management game. The game is no where near as large as the PC version but is perfect for a portable game with hours of gameplay. This years edition has many more features than the previous titles for example the 2D match preview option, this is fantastic to keep track on players who are under preforming and players who are getting tired during the game. This years edition is not as predictable as the previous games for example the same young cheap players are not available at the start of every game every ...  Read the complete review

When i got my psp the first game i had to get was football manager. The PC version had me hooked and this version did to. I love the fact you can take it anywhere with you and not have to put it down. The gameplay is good it is not much different from the windows version. The aim of the game is to be the manager of the team and lead them to domestic and european success, it is not as easy as it sounds because as a chelsea fan i started as them and i got sacked after my first season because i came second ! I prefer it like this because the game is not to easy and gives me a challenge and that is what keeps me hooked. Overall, i give this game a ...  Read the complete review

I don't know what Arsenne Venger's complaining about. I took Arsenal to win the Champion's Leauge and and League cup this season, and took the premiership to the last game. Okay, the nuts and bolts? Purchase and sell players. Pick a team of 11 out of your squad. Watch them play another team. That's it! However, it's utterly gripping. This iteration let's you watch a visual representation of the game (Lot's of big dots ping a small dot around the screen). This can create a bit of atmosphere but really, it's all about stimulating your imagination. When it tells you that Van-Persie hit the post, you see it in your mind perfectly. If I had to carp, I'd like to ...  Read the complete review

There are many versions of the football manager game for every console. My husband was addicted to it on the pc but having been bought a psp for his birthday from me. He searched high and low for this game. ever since he has not put it down. he loves it because he can take it anywhere with him and gets so in to it that i often question if he's married to that instead lol. Anyway the basic idea of it is that the player becomes a manager of a football team and has to play through a season. they get to transfer and buy players, become promoted if they are doing well and given many bonuses. The player can set up different games under different names so can manage various ...  Read the complete review
