I don't think there is any mate, pity as you can lose days in a decent football management game like the old champ/football manager.

I've just purchased fm 17 for the lappy. Only 18 quid at Tesco. Anyone been playing it? I know ed001 likes them, you been playing this year mate? Any good wonderkids you can recommend?

{Ed001's Note - I did get a copy of it, but only because it was free and have to admit I have not been able to get into it at all. The 'improvements' they keep making just make it look flashy but not play better. I don't think I will bother getting it again for a few seasons, when they might actually have some upgrades that aren't just annoying gimmicks.}

ah Batistuta, fantastic player.

The problem with fm 17 is that it has become more of an in match tactical game which means its very difficult to play on the key, extended, etc highlights. You have to play each game for the full duration of 90 minutes in real time in game which can take you 40 mins to complete a game. It took me a month to complete my first season.
I think you will enjoy it more playing the game for the full 90 min duration but be ready to spend a lot of time.

{Ed001's Note - I don't have the time for that. I think I will just give up on FM now as a game.}

You could download Champ Man 01/02 for free of this site:

Champ Man

I've got my old ps1 out and have started lma manager 99/00. Gone Preston North end. Just tried to loan a 19yo Steven Gerrard, He was having none of it. Haha.

FM 17 is a great game if you have the time to play the main game. There is the "Touch" (I think it's called) version of it too which is the quicker version of it.
I don't enjoy the 3-D match engine one bit though I must say, so tend to use 2-D as attributes look more realistic on 2-D if that makes sense.
It's very realistic this year (especially the crazy transfer fees).
I don't find it that difficult to play in all honesty so long as you're meticulous in your training and tactical set ups.
One trick I've always used is to play 3 CBs, no full backs.
This allows you to sell any full backs in your squad straight away to get some transfer money in to strengthen other areas.
Usually have a pretty slow start to a league campaign as the team adapts to this tactic, but once they're comfortable with it, we take over around October. so long as you bought well of course.
Best wonderkid I found this year was Lautaro Martinez I think is his name, (Lautaro is definitely his first name) a striker from Argentina - so long as you get a WP for him or can loan to a Spanish club (he gets a WP after 730 days or so in Spain).
Woodburn was excellent as well this year or a good under the radar prospect was Tomas Buitink or something (young striker from Holland) who will make you a nice profit if you loan him out in season one and/or two as he develops very quickly in all of my saves - have seen him sold for 40 to 50 million in season 3 a couple of times now.

I don't play games that much nowadays because of work commitments, but when I do I still go back to skyrim. I can't believe that its nearly 5 years old and i'm still playin it. Prob best game ever next to final fantasy 7 imo.

madmax

{Ed001's Note - I still play it too.}


1.) 29 Oct 2015 19:34:58
It is the best. I've played lots of new games but nothing seems to come close. i'm always open to recommendations of ppl.


2.) 29 Oct 2015 21:49:37
Was a great game, such a shame that elder scrolls online was such a disappointment


3.) 30 Oct 2015 00:36:38
Not really new games but over the past year I have given the souls games a go after the amazing bloodborne . And I can honestly say they have been the best games I have ever played. Always loved zelda with its bosses and puzzles and fantasy but I think dark souls has maybe become my favourite . Be prepared to die and die again but it is so worth it!!

{Ed001's Note - I have never tried any of them, though I was tempted to pick up Bloodborne as I saw it cheap.}


4.) 30 Oct 2015 09:30:02
It's brilliant ed, I would recommend bloodborne first as it's easier to get into. It's like a hack and slash with rpg elements really dark and gothic and some awesome boss fights. It's definatly worth a go in my opinion and after that give one of the souls games a go. It will be hard and frustrating but very rewarding . Both have a great online element as well

{Ed001's Note - if it is still on offer I will pick it up and give it a try.}


5.) 30 Oct 2015 12:18:50
Im gona buy it tonight and let u boys know how I get on.


6.) 30 Oct 2015 17:28:02
If it's bloodborne your on about madmax, don't give up on it, a piece of advise when you get to the first boss he will probably destroy you, here's the rpg element to it . Just go round and kill and farm souls (trade points) get stronger and go back and don't be ashamed to use online guides

Growing up I loved Nintendo. Buy have to agree with Ed on this one. The last few consoles are to much of a gimmick. It does look utter cack and the only thing that will save it is the 3rd party games. I was hoping for something that would push the Xbox and ps4, but instead were left with a mobile phone device pretty much.
