Product Description
Football Manager 2010 sees the return of the famous football management game for the new season, fresh with new signings, tools and features. With a new Tactics Creator and the introduction of touchline shouts and quick tactic changes, you'll always be able to react to the ebb and flow of the game from the dugout. Working with coaches from various levels of football, the game now has an extensive array of pre-set tactical options allowing the user to select a detailed role for a player in the team (such as ball winning midfielder or deep lying playmaker).
Feedback from matches has been improved to give better insight into where your team is going wrong or doing it right. A new Match Analysis tool gives you the power to see where shots, passes, crosses, headers, tackles, fouls and interceptions have been made on the field for all players on the pitch. Viewable both live in-game and post match, pinpoint the strengths and weaknesses of both your team and the opposition and mastermind your route to victory accordingly. Football Manager 2010 features a brand new User Interface, with the side bar navigation of previous years replaced by an intuitive tab system at the top of the screen, making Football Manager's famed depth easier to navigate for new managers.
A brand new Data Editor allows the addition of new divisions to existing leagues and of entirely new leagues as well as making it easier than ever to keep the game up to date, and do so for free. For even more information, a new look News Centre allows you to receive an in-game subscription based newspaper with only the news that you want about the football world. Following the debut of a 3D match view in Football Manager 2009, this year's release sees a revamp with improved AI, over 100 new animations for the 3D pitch view, new stadiums, crowds, realistic pitch degradation and better lighting, creating an even more realistic match experience.

 So disappointing................. March 9, 2010
J. Higgins
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I really am struggling to find words to describe just how disappointing this franchise has become. It seems determined to cater for only the most intense of nerds who have endless hours to play. Compare this to the fun that the old Championship Manager used to bring. There wasn't the level of detail and sure there were bugs but it was at least enjoyable.
I struggle to understand why the makers of this game don't realise they are alienating a whole generation of fans who simply want to play and win without having to struggle for everything. Surely a simplified game mode isn't too much to ask for is it?
Very, very disappointing.

good game play not as addicting as the old one but that might be seen better so not as much life wasted on it.
 Punishing March 4, 2010
Bob (England)
Incredibly punishing game difficulty wise. I have spent a lot of time with this, reading up on the tactics, sideline shouts, formations, I have used a scout program (cheated!)
to get the best players to my squad, and introduced new players into my squad gradually. I have given the players time to settle in. I adjust tactics to suit my players,
the opposition, the assistant manager's assessments on a match by match basis. I adjust settings during the match according to how things are going. And still I see my team loose or draw to a dramatic extra time goal nearly every match.
This game desparatly needs an easy difficulty setting. I just want to have a bit of fun after all, but no, I am punished for any of the slightest mistakes I make. Praised a player in good form? = team upset = loose next match. Didnt praise a player in good form? = player upset = loose next match!
Sports Interactive, you have a great product here, but until you make it fun again you have lost a customer.

Mac Version is Inexcusably Buggy March 2, 2010
markw (Farnham, UK)
Just as a warning, the mac version of the game is prone to repeated and frequent crashes, typically in the TV view of a game you are winning. There has been one update since the game was originally released. Since the (mac version of the) game doesn't send back any data when it crashes, I'm not sure the developers are even aware of this (or care). I started playing CM on the Amiga in 1993; this has to be the worst version of the game, for reliability, since that version. There are a few other bugs in it as well (be careful not to trust your staff to register all your players, when in the Premier League) and I suspect the developers have got too used to releasing a new version of the game and then sitting back and watching the money come in. The gameplay is excellent, and the TV view of games is a big advance for this kind of game. But the game's reliability and it's associated support really lets it down.
