Well I've got to say I have gone out and bought the pc version of the game, and to be honest I prefer it.

It's nicer layout, you can get to the sections you want easier, You can do the split screen in matches without having to have an HDTV and there are also other little touches on the pc version that are not on the 360 version which I like.

All the bugs that were mentioned on the 360 I have never experienced so its not the bug issue that made me go back to the pc version, I just feel you get more a gaming experience with the pc version.

I like the 360 version and will still play it when I can't get on the pc and I like the acheivement system on the 360, but the pc version does run smoother and I can make do with it running alittle slower than the 360 version.

(I'm not much of a PC guy), but that's the thing that infuriates me about PC Games. You have to have this software, and this amount of memory, and you need a top notch processor, and possibly a fancy new graphics card. There's no end to this.

Aaaaarrrrrrrrgh. I just want to play the damned thing. Hence why I bought a 360. You switch it on, you insert the disc, and the machine does the rest, and you know that it's going to work. You don't have to trall the internet looking for upgrades or pataches etc.

My mate's brother bought a top notch PC last weekend, and installed FM07 on it. Guess what.....it wouldn't work. So now my mate has to do all the messing about of trying to find out why. I LOVE MY XBOX 360 (sorry for the capitals).

yeah well i think Nickyh is more talking about how poor the game and support is

yes its a adavantage with the 360 your correct, but the actual game and major lack of support from SI has little to be desired

I see his point, I really do, but I'm in 4th season of the 360 version, and I've seen nothing that's angered me or disappoinetd me.

Ok, the player database size could have been much larger but then again, there's more than enough content to keep most people amused.

As you say, there is no real support for the 360, but then who's to say this won't happen in 'X' number of weeks or months time.

I used to play 05, and 06 on my PC, and the slow down at times was immense, even running a mid sized database. So this to me is such a great improvement.

I agree the 360 version has it advantages of being able to switch it on and play, my pc is 18 months old and not the fastest but I'm enjoying it more at the moment on th epc, as the pc seems to have more depth than the 360, it just the little touches, theres features that I didn't know was on FM07 that I have found on th ePC version that I have n't on the 360, for all I know they are on the 360 version but haven't found them.

When FM08 comes out I will be buying the pc version and the 360 version, so I have not deserted the 360 version at all, and appreciate that this is only the second game they have done for the 360 and it can only get better.

There's so much more content depth in FM07 as apposed to FM06. The news screen always brings a smile to my face. It's always full of interesting stuff, especially the board takeovers.

The media are lethal with the constant player rumours.

For the record, this is my opinion only and I don't dispute that loads of you love the game on the 360 - It's just not for me. I hated the PSP version too (returned it within 24 hours). I love the depth and customibility that the PC version gives - will no doubt invest on PC in the future.

For me, detail is key. I don't want a 'snapshot' or diluted version.
