The latest console version of Football Manager will be fully updated for the new season, including transfers being made in the mid-season transfer window, allowing players to select their favourite club or international team and guide them to the title.

While retaining all the depth and realism of the record breaking PC version, the Xbox 360 version also features revamped online play to the PC game via Xbox Live, permitting you to challenge friends to one-on-one matches and even host tournaments.


"Football Manager 2008 on Xbox 360 gives console gamers the chance to dive into the wonderful world of football management." commented Miles Jacobson, Studio Director of Sports Interactive Ltd. "With the same feature set to the PC version and various online modes, we hope that there is something for every Xbox 360 owner to get stuck into."


With all-new features, improved gameplay and a depth only seen from Sports Interactive Ltd., the whole range of Football Manager 2008 titles offer a management simulation that is second to none.


Football Manager 2008 for Xbox 360 is set for release on March 28th 2008.

Not got a 360 but what do you guys think?

Will it be a hit or will the PC version be too good to compete with?

Discuss..

To think that people can go out with hatred in their heart and take away people's sons or brothers or fathers is just beyond belief. That's the way I think about it now: it's only a game. 'Educate the kids to integrate with one another and not pay any attention to who's a Catholic and who's a Protestant, and any of that rubbish. 'Just go out there, support your team, make good friends and get on with your lives.

I think Manager games are better to stay on PC, i don't know about anyone else but when i have a joypad in my hand i want to PLAY a game, so i would rather have FIFA/PES over a managing game on a game system.

Love FM08 tho just don't think it's a console type game, well certainly not for me.

Theres no way you can play it on 360 coz of the lack of controls you have in comparision to a mouse and keyboard!

And 360's suck anyway!!!

No undoubtedly it wouldnt coz 360s suck, and theres less you can do on a 360 to a PS3 coz of a lack of available controls and functions compared to PC


And also its silly in Spring coz the season is nearly over then!
