Its a shame as I was looking forward to it. But with CM you get realism

I don't know if you know this but FM = CM. CM05 is not the real CM and is a load of crap.

eirebhoy you beauty.

I was looking around for ages to fix my poorly made image that comes up with 'insert the correct cdrom' message. I set it to nt compatibility mode like you said and it works a treat.

cheers.

Ill try and make a minidisc for you lads admitly by the time I make it some proffesional group would have made it but... ill try.

Doesnt take a group to make a mini image lol. Just a brain with a higher IQ than George Bush, a computer with Alcohol 120%, and a pair of hands.

With CM you get better matches, not lets just score 12 in one game. Not realistic enough with FM.

And remember CM was around since amiga days, which spawned into Premier Manager, which then spawned into Football Manager.

There was a Football Manager before CM, but it was nothing to do with SI.

dude your gettting this so confused with fifa manager.

football manager is the game we all know as cm.

cm 5 is a brand new game with bad ai,and the tendancy to send off 5 of your players in every match.

i lost 23-0 to inter milan with real madrid in cm 5 lol! with 6 men.

[glenbo]

maybe it is your personal prefrence tho mate :P

i know that cm5 got reviews of like 30% and 2/10 in most magazines..

wheras football manager got 10/10 and 90% everywhere,and nominated as the british game of the year,and the highest selling pc game of last year also.

sports interactive the makers of football manager 2005,where the makers of every single championship manager that was ever made exept last years,which was entirely new,and they lost a lot of money (even i took my copy back to teh shop,it was pants!,lol)

btw,the zx spectrum,c64,amiga version of football manager has nothing to do with these games,other than this game has aquired the trademark for the name.

[DABhand]

Not with Fifa Manager no...

Ive seen Fifa Manager running and its just as bad.

But hey, I was giving a warning before you buy it lol

[glenbo]

already purchased today! and been playing it for 4 hours straight (even running in a window now) it is pure amazing,and the best footie manager sim anywhere!

if a cm6 ever comes out (****ing frauds!) i wont even contemplate looking at it lol! it really was worthy of a zx spectrum.

football manager is almost identical to cm4 with added features...ie same 2d pitch (somthing else the new fraud cm has ripped off)

so teh goals aint really unrealistic,cos its 2d lol!

i know you have your own taste,but im so sure you have this mixed up with fifa manager lol! cos saying football manager is not very good is like saying thierry henry is crap,or ronaldinho is crap lol

[DABhand]

They are imho, especially ronaldo, biggest paid goal poacher..


And no I aint mixed up with Fifa Manager.

-throws a head fit- thierry henry crap? man! please dont tell me henrick larsson,john hartson or chris sutton even deserve to be on the same pitch as him lol!

[Virdan]

lol some1s lost the original CMs never became Premier manager and then FM... Premier Manager afaik became Fifa manager, CM became FM when SI split with Eidos... they kept everything but the name.. whereas Eidos kept the name and churned out a load of crap :S

[glenbo]

nope

premier manager is still going,always has been and has just released a new game.

fifa manager/total club manager are the same thing.

championship manager is football manager

championship manager 5 makers are a new independent company paid by eidos,and ruined the championship manager name.

when sports interactive used to make champ manager and it was published by eidos..

they were known as 'eidos interactive'

now sorts interactive games are published by sega.

and last i read,championship manager is litrally dead...and there will be nomore of these rip off games.

[ukspur]

will some extremely kind person for the love of god send me or tell me where to get the no cd patch for FM2006, im going past desprate to point of considering chewing of my own leg as enjoyment.

Please help!!!!!

p.s this is my first post if i have broken any rules then i am sorry and i retire back within the cave i once came from.

[ukspur]

plus whilst your all on the subject of the history of FM here is mine!!!

It all started for me on my trusted Amiga with the orginal cm(Cant remember the year!)
then onto CM Italia (Again Amiga)

before its mighty rise to the PC where foreign leagues came in (Oh how i remember these great days!!!)

from there CM has evolved into the most successful football management games of all time, and then came the split... the dark days some call it,

well they were if you bought cm05 (Crock of crap that was) FM is the only sim you will ever need,

Long may it continue!!!!!
