Football Manager Vs Championship Manager 5

Big Ears

I just got the game today , and am typing this just a minute after 'a session' of Football manager , and damn that game is great .

I started as KR in Iceland .I love the new 2D pitch aswell as all the other new features .

IT takes a while to get used to the new setup , and where all the buttons are and what they do , but once you're used to them , they are much handier .

Is it better than 03/04 , I certainly think so . .

How fast is it?

I only have a 600mhz P3 and 256ram, would it run alrite?
I did have cm 03/04 running on it though and its ment to be faster than that?

I really like the game so far,but i did expect it to be better. The manager mind games is class,but other than that i dont think there is enough media involvement. Also it says on the offical footie manager site that agents send you 2d clips of players in action. Has anyone seen that in the game? Or was it just something they thought of putting in but just didnt bother!!!

Yeah, ive had several offers from div 1 players (Jason Roberts, Marlon King)

Managing Middlesbrough (in late oct atm), won all my friendlies, won all euro games so far, into 4th round of the league cup, but i cant win a premiership game! Im languishing in 18th, half my squad think we should be topping the table but at least my board thinks im doing a good job.

Its refreshing as i always used to walk through the other ones. Excellent overall game.

Im running it (albeit VERY slowly) on a PII 300mhz with 128mb ram.

If you're only planning on running a couple of leagues it should be fine.

ye but the min. spec says 600mhz with 128ram so how are you running it!?

I dont want to get it if it takes ages between games and stuff it just does me head in.

you should try and buy some second hand ram
i sold some pc100/pc133 (the type of ram your cpu takes) a while ago 256mb for €30
if you have 512mb of ram the game would run good

I only got mine yesterday, it had been posted 10 days previously.
Didn't get much chance to play it though, seems faster than CM03/04 anyway.
