Yesterday i started playing a not so old football management game called CM 03 04.For those of you that dont know what im talking about,its basically the famous championship manager game which has now become a huge franchise.Originally started by Eidos,CM had the potential to be one of the greatest games ever and the 03 04 version was nearly perfect.Unfortunately after the release of 03 04 the team broke up and they moved their separate ways...One group started working on a game called FM(Football Manager) which had great AI and realism but had a crappy interface,some annoying bugs and glitches that just made me give up on the franchise.The other group was still releasing CM but it lacked the AI and gameplay it used to have before.The realism was totally sucked out of it when they introduced weird player stats like feinting(Something to do with diving/falling to ground easily to get freekicks).True this situation goes on in everyday football but do we really need it in a game?
Nonetheless there are still people who really enjoy the CM and FM series but im way too happy with my CM 03 04 to give a damn.The database might be really out of date but the gameplay,interface and player stats are absolutely fantastic.Anyways time for me to get back to my French League 2 side Caen as they fight to get promoted to the first league :)
