Posted August 23, 2009 1p for a game I'm not bothered about, it's worth a try. £2.51 for a game I'm not bothered about, I'll pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 23, 2009 I just can't be bothered with such games... why play something that sounds like a chore to play? Still each to their own and all that bollocks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 25, 2009 I have played, and liked, some managerial games (X11 is a very notable one. , but I've played CM a few times and it's just too...much. There's too much to do, it's more like you're actually running the football club itself rather than just the squad like a typical football manager. Having said that, though, some managerial sims did involve Chairman-esque stuff, such as building new stands or a brand new stadia altogether. But when that involved staring at a rotating virtual model of Villa Park, I didn't complain. tl;dr: I don't like Championship Manager.

Posted August 25, 2009 £2.50 transaction fee for a downloadable title? o_o That's like the Wii store running out of virtual star point cards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 25, 2009 I think its just so can still make a bit of money tbh...Anyway I can't play it, seems there is no resolution that will work on my netbook so can't see the bottom of the screen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 13, 2009 Well downloaded this yesterday after paying just 1p (plus a £2.50 transaction fee) for it and I'm pretty pleased with it...For the first time since the SI Games-Eidos split, Champ Man is a worthy opponent to FM. Their 3D match engine is better. Only thing is the slight lack of player interaction and the rather generous transfer budgets you seem to get with some lower teams...although one good thing is big players won't join shit clubs! Gary Neville was offered to me by Man Utd but he refused the move and likewise Ryan Giggs offer was accepted and he chose Real Madrid over Portsmouth even though I was able to offer more money than they did!

Posted September 13, 2009 Ryan Giggs moved to Real Madrid?! Cham Man still amazes me how sometimes they can get it so wrong. While it sound like a great deal I'd rather wait until FM10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least it is slightly more believable than to pompey though...Yeah I think I will still try out the FM10 demo, although not expecting it run well on netbook as FM09 didn't at all...Still for 1p really can't complain!
