I really, really, really don't want to play Football Manager on a console. Unless, someday, there's a console that can be used in just the same way as a PC. But then it would probably cease to be a console.

Mike If football manager was to be made on ps3 it could be exactly as the game is now for pc.

It has hdd to store data on.
Cell processor.
Keyboard and mouse support.

I'm not totally sure on the 360 but the release of 08 doesn't use a hdd and doesn't have keyboard and mouse support i believe.

I like the others hope FM continues on pcs but i do realize thats if need be consoles can be a viable option for the game.

no you cant, i meen think of all the cableing and ud need a display etc, impossible pal





hehe


well the effort SI put into the console games are poor, obviously not many of you played or bought the game on 360 the past two years, or you would be telling SI to keep away from consoles

they just never supported the console version mainly because it hardly sold, its more of a afterthought for them to make money (hence the release near the end of the season ?!)

trust me, Fm on Pc wont change for a long, very long time

its audience is a Pc audience, the hardcore console gamers, and young kids who play consoles most of the time dont have the attention span and dont spend lots of time on PCs such as FM, fiddling with each specific slider bar etc

i play alot on the console aswell, and FM on pc, but the majority (and this doesnt meen everyone) prefer the pick up and play of a console

hence why FM 360 doesnt sell well

Forget the cabling who wants to lug that beast round to and from work you may as well just take a set of weights to work as well.

FM has too many dedicated players that will buy the game no matter what so no, no effect on FM at all.

i personally find it pointless playing management games on a console (cm 01/02 on xbox, i think, was my only attempt).

i've not played fm on the 360, so i don't really know how much depth it has in comparason to the pc version. personally, playing fm with a joypad is gay.

I'm sure if more games try to do what Crytek have, which no console is even half as good for graphics as crysis. Then im sure PC games would be fine

If FM did convert to console-only, I don't see it surviving.

There's just something about the game's text-based nature that doesn't fit at all with the action/adventure nature of typical console games.

Would it be possible to update the patches with a console?
