Default Give Up Dont Play With Fire/What A Waste Of Money

I have FM2007 for the 360 and i also have FM2007 for the PC the reason for this is because I liked the idea of achievements and also playing against my mates online through the 360.

But I wish I never wasted My £40 which could have gone towards a new 1gb ram stick for my slower PC.

The 360 version has more bugs then a nature reserve.

1. Hall of Fame Glitch
2. Online Glitch (No one to ever play)
3. No Large Database
4. No Editor
are just a few to name

also why is it only £30 at the most for the PC Version and over £40 for a Copy of the 360 version? If you ask me if your not going to do updates then don't release a game that is not good enough for a next gen con. Stick to what you do great at and thats the PC version.

Dont just take people's money for the sake of trying to dip into the next gen market when the game is best played on the PC format.

Sorry to seem off but I and alot of others on here have the same views.

i had the pc version but files got corrupted and it wouldn;t work on the pc...so i sold that to my cousin...and bought the xbox version...i find it an ok game but as jarvo says it has those glitches and missing components to make it a good game...although i did 4 seasons with WBA in a week..i've gone off the game completely

I disagree, even though there are obvious things missing in the 360 version I don't think it's that bad imo.
Who cares this much about seeing your name on top of the Hall of Fame, if you've won everything several times you know you should be up there, just imagine that it doesn't exist, I mean who has ever seen such a ranking irl?
The editor part could be annoying but it's not like FM data is absolutely horrible, it's probably the most realistic sports game you can find so the editor is not needed this much.
The Online glitch I don't know about since I personally don't play online and don't intend to either.
The large DB thing can be a little annoying I have to admit but I've played several seasons with a small DB now and I don't find it ridiculously small, I mean there still is a bunch of players.

On the other hand the game processes much faster than it ever will on a PC so overall it comes down to not having an editor and having a smaller DB vs the game play being the same and the game being sooo much faster. Then it's up to everyone to make an inform personal decision but I personally am really happy about the 360 version of FM.

I agree about the hall of fame, not really bothered. It is a shame however that they missed it in QA.

The processing is great - obviously thinking about console gamers with short attention spans!
