Fifa Manager 09If you’re a die hard fan of sports and football, this game is for you…well, not if you want to actually play and move your players but be their manager, coach and design your own club.
FIFA Manager 09 is another installment of EA Sports management game. It’s actually a great game and you can choose in which areas you want to set foot and control over. You can be only the manager and coach your team, plan their training, go abroad for tournaments and training games. More? You can train the reserves and the youth club as well. More? You can set the prices on the tickets for your football team the way you want them to be, you can sign players and contracts, you can negotiate, loan, expend your facilities and stadium, in this game, you are the god of your own football club.
You’ll have to win titles of-course and set yourself the goals for each season before starting it. You’d like to be favorable among the fans and your director of boards in order to keep your job safe or you’ll have to look for another job soon.
This is a great management game if you’re into football. This is a very addictive game so beware. I remember I had a paper to write for the university so I told myself I’ll play for 2-3 hours and then head back writing my paper. Well…I did sit down for 2-3 hours, only to discover later they had ended quickly and instead of 11 A.M it is now 8 P.M.
Like I said, running and managing a football club is probably one of every third person’s dream, and winning the titles by beating your rivals, there’s nothing more fun than this. I remember shouting so hard every time my team beat the rivals, I knew the club would love it and that’s the feeling with this game, you actually feel you run a club and it feels real enough to blind you there is real life outside.
I recommend this game, just know when to stop…because there is a life out there too…somewhere…now if you’ll excuse me, I have a very important game, my team needs to get ready…
