    I've been thinking about this. At first I thought €18 is dear for a PSN game, but I guess it's not really bad for a what you get if you think about it.

    Nothing announced so far. So this is the closet you'll get.

    Im going to get it when Im home. Ive read 2 reviews were it got 7/10 and 8/10.

    It said it fits nicely in between a casual football sim and hardcore sim. The bad points they noted was the lack of text commentary on the 2D match screen and there is no player name search (You must go to the club and find them).

    All in all it sounds good to me.

    Pain in the arse, i had this on PS2, if you've played any sort of manager game on PC, avoid PS versions, not even worth €10

    Footy management does suffer on console, if they dumb it down you dont get as involved.

    Has all the real names and stuff so this may be bought if it gets a discount 18 euro is still a bit much.

    Its actually not too bad. I agree with the 7/10 rating for this. Its more of a pick up and play football sim than the steep learning curve of Football Manager but its still good.

    It has what you expect from a managment game and you can level up your coach with XP points which is a nice touch. Its not that hard to sign players but I dont know if thats a good or bad thing.

    Bad points are theres no text commentary in the match. Looking at your players stats isnt great, instead of just a list you have to highlight each stat and it tells you what level hes at then.

    Good game for what it is. They might update it if enough people share their problems. They should have a demo for everyone to try aswell.
