Hi guys, obviously one of the main differences between the PC and console versions of FM will be the control system.

So I was wondering exactly how it all works? I've seen in pics the face butons seem to be used as shortcuts, but how do the shoulder buttons come into play? How do you scroll menus too? I assume a button will 'toggle' between the left side menu (eg. options for player - transfer status, etc.) and the main screen? (player/club, transfer market screen, etc.)

Also, will a right click function be in the 360 version? By this I mean when you right click on a player, a mini shortcut menu appears.

Thanks for any info, keep up the good work everyone.

Any chance of SI releasing a video of the game in action? Would love to see a vid showing the game ;

This has been asked on teh FMPSP forum, but they cannot do it since they do not have enough spair time or resources,

I allways remember the rolling demo of CM4, gave you a good idea,
the game seems more "real" when watching it, when you are just giving figures and stills, it just doenst seem "real" and working,
but obviously it is just hard to imagine it

Thanks for the reply, yeah a rough outline of the controls was what I wanted so cheers for that Joe.

Though is the game cursor-driven (ie. visual, scrollable cursor operated through anolgue stick), or will it be more like the d-pad style of 'one press to automatically select the next item' from CM 01/02 and 02/03?

A vid would be a great idea but I appreciate time is of the essence for you chaps, so keep up the good work as always.

You can move around and select things using the left analogue stick and perform actions on the selected object using one of the coloured buttons with a legend at the bottom that will tell you what action each of the buttons will perform.

Sounds good to me Cheers Ter.
