The Football Manager team has taken the fans comments on board and have introduced a host of new features across all formats. Feedback specifically on the Xbox 360 version resulted in the Sports Interactive team compiling a new user interface to allow players to have a joypad friendly experience whilst still retaining all the depth of the game. Football Manager Handheld also sees an upgrade with more playable leagues, more features and, for the very first time, network play allowing you to compete against your friends on your PSP.

“We are constantly striving for perfection and are on track to deliver our most authentic football experience yet”, commented Miles Jacobson, Studio Director of Sports Interactive. “There will be a new, easy to use default skin, as well as improved hints and tips throughout the game. More in-depth feedback from your assistant manager and coaches, plus interaction with any player worldwide makes this an un-missable and very user friendly experience, and our best football game by a country mile.”

With all-new features, improved gameplay and a depth only seen from Sports Interactive, Football Manager™ 2007 and Football Manager Handheld offers a management simulation that is second to none. To whet the appetite of every Football fan, SEGA and Sports Interactive have unveiled just some of the new features available with more features for all platforms to be announced in the coming months.

Features for Football Manager™ 2007 PC/Mac/Intel Mac/Xbox 360™:

Feeder Clubs - Brand new to Football Managerä 2007, and one of the most requested features on Sports Interactive’s forums has been the addition of feeder clubs to the game. This new addition works in all the ways you would expect it to in real life. You can establish your club as the small team who receives loan players from a larger club or a large club looking for support getting your youngsters match experience by loaning them out. Have the first option on players from clubs, and schedule pre-arranged friendlies each season by simply asking your board for a feeder relationship and choose from the list they compile.

Youth Revamp - A complete revamp of youth teams sees full youth squads for each team that has a youth set-up, thus giving a much better system for the regeneration of players in the long term game.

User Friendly – Football Manager 2007 gives players a new easier to use default skin, along with hints and tips throughout the game, and an improved tutorial. In addition to better feedback from your assistant manager and scouts as well as lots more media, customisation and multiple row selection, all this adds up to the most user friendly Sports Interactive game ever.

Scouting Revamp - A complete revamp of the scouting system inside the game leads to more information about players and teams being made available to managers, as well as a more realistic methodology for player scouting. This system allows scouts to grow and improve their knowledge-base of the world’s football players.

Player Interaction - You can now talk to any player in the world via the media. Player interaction allows you to tap up other teams stars or see if players will buckle under the pressure. An effective manager must use the media as a motivational tool - why not praise your own players in many different ways or shout at them for loss of form?

Team Talks - For more varied ways to talk to your team, SI have worked hard to deliver vastly improved team talks at half and full time. Not only this, but pre-match team talks will now be making their first appearance in Football Manager - so you can send your team out onto the pitch with a specific briefing.

Football Manager™ 2007 for PC, Mac, Intel Mac and Xbox 360ä are set for release Christmas 2006. Football Manager™ Handheld for PSP will also make the Christmas 2006 launch. For further information go to www.sigames.com or the completely re-vamped www.footballmanager.net website.

Sounds good to me!

Recent SI blog update regarding new features which most of you have probably read. I like the multiple database, hyper-threading and "ultimate challenge" mode.

Balancing between new features and the speed of the game is really important so for those that do have speedy computers, more sections of the game are now multi core optimised and hyper-threaded. For those that have older machines, the "detail level" option in option menu is a good place to go all levels of matches are now configurable to play out with the full match engine (with visible highlights) or the quick match engine (without visible highlights). So you can now have more leagues active in the game, so more jobs to get across the world, without it slowing down the game much at all, or just keep using the same amount of leagues as in previous SI games, working with the other optimisations to actually speed the game up considerably, despite the 100+ new features. We have tried to cater for those with both the latest machines and those with older ones, and obviously the older the technology, the slower the machine will be with higher detail settings, so its nice and easy to tune the speed of the game to what youre happy with on your PC or Mac, much like you can with detail settings in FPS games.

Other new features in the user friendly area include lots of extra stats being displayed inside the game, particularly in news items, to give more info to the user, better feedback from your assistant manager, agents recommending positions for exchanging players in transfer deals and the option to back up saved games before a new one saves.

Oh, and lets not forget the basic and advanced set up modes for starting a new game and adding a manager, with easy to use wizards for those who get confused by any kind of menu. Or the ability to take screenshots just by pressing one of the function keys they save into your saved game directory (check out the "shortcuts" option in the preferences screen, which can be found in the option menu to see which button is assigned, and lets you completely configure keyboard shortcuts)

The database editor is also easier and quicker to use for those who like to edit such things. Weve added multiple database support into the game, so theres no need to wipe over older databases, meaning that if you try an unofficial update to the game and it doesnt work, you can easily switch back to the original database. Or choose to start a new game with data from the first transfer window, or the second window when we release our official data update around February time.

For those who play network games, theres been some optimisation made to make the experience easier, also the addition of screen remembering, which means that having the "continue game timeout" option which stops you from being kicked out of making transfer bids and return to screens that you dont want to be on.

Theres more things for advanced users, with new advanced game modes, including the possibility of the ultimate challenge, with random team selection where the computer chooses which team you should manage as well as the ability to have dual nationalities, just like the players inside the game.

But my personal favourite for both old and new users alike is the addition of the capability to select multiple players and perform multiple actions on said players, much like you would do with any software you use day to day. Want to get rid of your youth squad? Easy, just select the first player, then the bottom one whilst holding down shift, and they will all select. Right clicking on the mouse then gives you the multiple action options. You can use this on virtually all screens, so it makes it a lot easier to do scout searches, as well as managing your squad, managing player searches and the like.

Demo out tonight at midnight, I'm having some of that.

It was leaked out yesterday by play.com and a few people have posted pics on sortitoutsi, best thing so far is the "could be the next......" now with added legend comparisons :w00t

Two I've seen so far:

Gabriel Agbonlahor - Could be the next Geoff Hurst
James Vaughan - Could be the next Gary Lineker

I'll be buying more British talent this time round, for sure.
