Championship Manager 5

[nikos24]

Just wondering.. is this game any good? been looking all over, and cant find much information on this seriously. need some help. because i might get it for a good price, but i dont want to waste my money on it if isnt any good. Anyone have this game? Tried it? let me know,whether i should get it or not

P.S. i have FM2005 already.. and the reason for this thread is because my cousin's bday is coming up and he loves football management games on PC, he doesnt have CM5 yet, is it good? Many thanks.

Mate, stick with FM, seriuosly i bought Championship manager expecting it to follow up on last years game which was amazing, but as soon as i played it, it was utter bollocks!
So i took the filth back and got my money, i wouldn't waste my time on that mate.

yea steer well clear of it!!!! and steer even further clear of the ps2 version! absolute rubbish, the worst excuse for a management game ever

Yeah i heard this game is pure shite you are better off buying Football Manager 2006 when it comes out.

I have it on PS2 and its ok on that but on computer its shite. Dont waste your money on it.

 

[nikos24]

Aye, Fms editor is great. Takes long to load up like because of its database, its huge. But great editor.

But seriously, those sorts of things are good for a manager game. In real life teams get better and some get worse, so what's the problem with including it in a game? Take Bolton for example, in about four years they went from Division 1 to Europe. If that happened in a management game would you complain it's unrealistic?

 

[nikos24]

Got a strong point there Yossi..

Will be buying FM06 then.

How good the new game will be will depend to you're management, if you are crap manager and you lose everywhere then youll think its crap, if you win, win, win you'll think its the best game ever... you have to balance it out and take the ups aswell as the downs.

The teams are hugely unrealistic on CM5. A NUFC youth player(Ramage) is better than Boumsong.
