Default Best Ever FM?

I have to say it is from the CM series; 99/00

It was soo good, only because it brings back memories of being a kid and spending quality time with my Dad, he doesn't play much FM anymore because he mostly does work, but even now I love playing FM with him!

Ahhhhh memories!

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.

For me it was Championship Manager 4 (01/02). It was great, I played older ones which were my brothers but Champ man 4 was the first FM/CM game that I owned, I saved up for over two months to buy it and still have it now. I play it from time to time and it was the only game were Sheffield Wednesday could get Wayne Rooney on a free at the start of the game, I love that game and it is the game which got me hooked.

Current Game/s

I think its got better as it went on. CM 00-01 was the best until FM 08 came out.

Cheers Ru

I think fm07 as it was the first in the series i bought, and I feel fm08 is little more than an update.

Hoping for something special from FM09

FM2007 Was Superb Put Very Repetetive, with things like responses to questions, but i suppose every Manager game is like that!
FM2008 is class and easy to play :)

But Fm07 got my vote!!

01/02 for me. I played it for years on my PC, with my older brother who was the CM king of the house at the time (Title i now hold )

Then i got it for the xbox a few years back and played it on that.

Havn't got it anymore, and I'm not sure if it will even run on vista.

CM 01/02 was the business. I played it until FM 2006 came out cos i thought everything between them wasn't very good. I now think that FM08 is probably the best

FM scotland it will run on Vista cos My CM4 runs on vista.

Nice choise Ru, That was the first CM I played on and sort of got me hooked, couldn't play it much cos it was my brothers but it was that game which made me buy CM4. My brother still plays CM 97/98, he's in 2006 last time I asked him and was managing sheffield wednesday in europe.

I actually think that FM 2008 is the best one that's been released so far but before this year's addition, it has to be CM 01/02. I was still playing that game up to about a year ago before I scratched the disc on a drunken night.
