Had this discussion before i know but the other day i thought i would start up a game of FM and it pissed me right off.
I sit there for hours cos the game is so slow and the menus take an age to figure out what to do and where everything is.
Hence i put it back in the draw where it has been since i brought it.
(Anyone want it???)
So i have now purchased CM5 as i play CM03-04 at work and think it is one of the best they have produced.
I have read reviews saying it's better than FM so for £9 off Play i thought fuck it.
has anyone else got both or played both.
Whats your views??

My mate bought it for the x-box, and sent it back because it was toss apparently. Another mate has bought it, but I think plays FM still, maybe that speaks for itself, he did say it was rubbish too.  End of an era? |

FM works like lightning on my pc, so i have no need to try CM as it's the mutt's nuts.

Ummm, FM is slow on mine too, but for what reason I'm not sure. Think it may have something to do with running the large data base.
I can't be arsed to start again, so I've basically given up on it, probably until the next edition is out.

I have been trying to play CM this week and just havent been able to get into it but I'd say the differences between them are pretty small and CM is no way as bad as its made out to be. Fm plays quick on my computer but Cm is slow(I probably need to install the patch) My conclusion is that Football managaement games are intended for the winter months so............ Why dont you switch off your Pc and go outside and do something less boring instead,why dont you,whhhhy doooont yooooou  (you have to be a certain age to understand what im on about here) |

That 'certain age' is presumably over 25?

You're up early Sonic.
03/04 was definately the best CM incarnation.
It was also the game I managed to get furthest into the future with. I did find that it became quite easy though, so I set myself up as a new manager for Preston (why not eh) in god know's what year and got them from relegation fodder in Div2 to Premiership contenders, all in the shrotest time possible.
I loved that game, I even spent a week in Majorca playing it in the sun on my dad's laptop - I'm that sad.
