...it because I loved the football manager series for computer. I did not think it would be anywhere near as good as the computer version for 2007, but I thought it would do as I love these types of games.

Advantages: Holistic, realistic, challenging and engrossing Football Management game Disadvantages: None at all.
...CM series, when I saw Football Manager 2007 for the PSP in the shops. The screenshots looked good, and I also took into consideration the positive things I had heard about the FM series. I therefore purchased Football Manager 2007 and could not wait to see if I could replicate my former success. Furthermore, I was keen to see ho much more convenient it was having a management game on a portable device.

Advantages: Addictive, None of its appeal has been lost Disadvantages: Less leagues available than on PC
How could they put amazing PC game onto a crappy little handheld? That's what I thought when I first saw this game on the PSP. However after being bought this for Christmas (which I then had to play and act like I enjoyed it) I was surprised at how well the game held up. I don't really know why I didn't think it would be able to be adapted onto the PSP because thinking about it; it is not that difficult to do as long as you make sure the AI is good. ... ...typical managerial game. You pick the country that you want to manage in, you pick your team you want to manage and there you go as simple as that… almost. Of course then you have to choose you team. You can do everything from tactics and training to players and wages. This means that all the factors that allow you to win leagues etc are available to be chosen. This gives you a great deal of freedom to do anything you want. Game play
The game play ...

...the pitch.
Basically any football team setup around the world can be copied into the game, so if Man U is your team then you can be Alex Ferguson.
Short recap then- GOOD:-
Game looks good, plays well, and is a long lasting game not just a day to complete one.
BAD:-
Can become dull and repetitive once all trophys and cups are won and as you become more wise and tactical in your gameplay. Thankyou for reading, Please, if you liked, please add ...

Advantages: Probably the closest thing to real management Disadvantages: Havent found any yet!!!
