I take it that because more info got the 360 version is coming on Friday, that more info for the PSP version is Friday too?

The source of the info will be one of 2 Xbox 360 magazines that will be running stories when their issues are due for release on Friday. That someone has the mag early is due to either someone selling the magazine early, or they are a subscriber and the post has been quick.

Normally, in this situation, we would bring forward our planned time for more info, but Mr.Duffy is away until Friday, various bits and bobs that we want to go live with aren't sorted yet (we have to get approvals from many of our licensees on screenshots, for example), and we'd rather be able to say everything in one go, rather than drips and drabs until then when we'll likely miss something.

As for PSP, that info will appear the same time as the first PSP mags with previews go live.

Release date info is around on some retail sites. Some are putting up false dates for some reason, but both are currently slated for release on Thursday 13th April, as long as we get through Sony & Microsoft's submission processes without any problems.

will a free demo be put on the xbox live market place?? and will the demo allow you to play an online senario??

mmmmm - no transfers on Live.
I dont know whether to laugh or cry.
I was so looking forward to playing my mates at a proper game of Football Manager over Live, but i take it that will not be the case.

I only hope this new format proves to be a winner - i'm feeling a bit disappointed at the mo to be honest

In saying that, and seeing i have loved FM (CM) since the amiga days, i am willing to be proved wrong roll on Friday then

I got my mag early I subscribe. It also says in the mag you can take your single player team into xbox live and use them in your games.
