Football Manager 2008

Game Info



Football Manager returns before Christmas packed full of new

features for fans of the much-acclaimed series from Sports

Interactive to feast their eyes on. Football Manager 2008 is out

on PC / Mac this autumn, and offers football fans the chance to

take on the greatest job on earth; manager of there favourite

football club!



Bigger, smoother and more in-depth than ever, Football Manager

2008 is packed full of so much newness it could well take a

lifetime to discover every new feature. So we asked Miles

Jacobson, Studio Director at SI Games, to take us through some of

the changes you'll want to hear about most...





Transfer Center



A new way of managing all current transfer and loan bids for your

club, both incoming and outgoing, making it easier to compare bids

and reject or accept them.





Finance Revamp



Sports Interactive have updated the finance area of Football

Manager 2008 to better reflect the ever-changing modern football

world. More information is available to the manager too,

including, but not limited to, corporate matchday income, season

ticket news, investment funds, improved sponsorships, collective

win bonuses and the ability to move around funds from the wage

budget and transfer budget (and vice versa) at any point to help

you in your quest for the ideal squad.





International Management



The international management gameplay has been completely revamped

for Football Manager 2008, including, but not limited to, media

improvements, international retirements, player interaction,

international scouting, improved national pool selection, captain

selection and a separation of international and club morale for

players.





Match Flow



The largest change to matchdays in a Sports Interactive game since

the introduction of the 2D match engine. Match flow brings more

atmosphere to matchdays with match previews, team talks,

opposition player instructions, the match itself, half time and

post match now seamlessly following on from one another. There's

no more pausing to make tactical changes and you'll find a

mini-radar pitch whilst making those tactical changes to keep you

in touch with what's going on in the match.





Confidence



You can now easily tell what your board and supporters think about

your performance in the game through the new confidence section.

This gives you feedback not just on your current progress in

competitions, but also your financial management and signings.





Easier to Use



A much cleaner skin, a brand new advisor system to help you

through various areas of the game, a new notes and notebook

system, better button positioning for simpler navigation and an

updated tutorial and manual. Also, coach reports to make taking

over a new team easier and a new calendar system which lists all

important dates throughout the season help to make Football

Manager 2008 the easiest Sports Interactive game to use yet.





Fan Days



The board can now arrange fan days to boost ailing attendances, or

for matches that are likely to attract a low crowd, with a

long-term affect to attendances if all goes well.





Awards Overhaul



A full overhaul of the awards system inside the game, which is not

only more accurate but also includes new awards, such as the

European golden boot and a 'best eleven', which shows the all-time

(in-game) best XI for all teams and nations.





Match Engine Improvements



A greatly improved match engine, once again utilizing the

footballing brain of Ray Houghton and other tools used by

real-life managers, to make the most accurate simulation of

football in a computer game even more like-life than ever before.

Oh, and the ability to change the pitch dimensions at the start of

the season to suit your style of play better.





Expanded Media



More media and feedback than ever before, plus more detail in

existing media, and a new competition news section to find out

what major things are going on in all league competitions.





Regenerated Player Photos



All in-game regenerated players now have pictures using FaceGen

technology to give each player more personality. This gives the

ability for players to be seen to mature and grow-up looks-wise in

front of your eyes as the game is going on.





Speedyfastier



Saving and loading is now significantly faster, with network

gaming quicker and smoother to play, as well as tactical changes

and match reports being faster than ever before.
