    I might get it, but SI didn't do much in the previous game so I don't want to feel like I'm getting ripped off by paying for an updated version of the previous title with little improvements.

    This one has 3D match engine, new transfer logic, rewritten board confidence logic and more, I can't remember everything thought. Should be good.

    Well, if they are indeed changing the unrealistic transfers then I'm ok with it. I'll see if I can get it for free first. ;)

    BTW guys, you do realize that the kits I make and the new ones from my friend can be used in FM games? :)

    FIFA actually had the advantage over SI with their manager game (FIFA Manager 2008). So I am also looking forward to FIFA's new version.

    M2, are they designed primarily for FM games? There's loads of great sites for FM stuff, I personally like SortItOutSi.net but there are plenty more. The stuff they have there is a must-have for FM lovers - you get missing kits, logos, facepacks, extra skins etc. It's great.

    Originally they are, yes. My friends and I have been modding that game for years now. We used to be a part of Susie, but that site went down the drain and they treated us like crap. Besides, the kits we made are better, IMO.

    Its very addictive and time consuming so beware you have been warned although I like the game.

    Strawberry is more complete.

    I've been playing FM09 demo for about 2 hours and it's great so far.. I have to get used to using all the features but I'm slowly getting it.

    Yeah, it takes a while. Did you play the other FM's? I'm about 70% through downloading with Steam.

    It has 3D Matches, more options, better database, realistic transfers, press conferences, multiple loges, better short lists, etc. You should get it.

    This is my first time with FM. And I still don't get how to make transfers and scout. :confused:
