Making a silly joke, doesn't give you the right to call people an idiot.

I can’t help it that you do not understand the silly joke.

Even if it was joke, you are a fool. You have no right to call anybody an idiot.

Alot of companies don't release their sales figures, of titles. Sega used to do so before they published Football Manager (back in the Dreamcast's lifespan) but I haven't been able to track down any recent ones.

It's safe to say alot were sold, it's the leading game of it's genre so it has a huge sales advantage. Lets face it, other games of the same genre, like CM and FIFA Manager just aren't as good.

How many copies they have sold is quite irrelevant for the consumer to know.

Football Manager 2008 is SEGA's first No.1 since Football Manager 2007 hit the top spot in the same week last year. Sales of the latest iteration are slightly down on previous editions, although only by 2,000 units on FM 2006 and 1,000 units on FM 2007

FM 08 is holding top position while CM 08 climbing up from the 9th to 4th spot. Link

Amazing how they manage to spot all the minor flaws in CM but fail to spot any of the pretty majors ones in FM. They also pick on areas where CM hasnt improved but conveniently ignore the same in FM- and yet they say it has "improved realism"!

A lot of these reviewers have preconcieved ideas that seep far too easily into reviews.

Not that this means that FM isnt better than CM (although imo CM has fresher ideas) but these reviews exhibit why they are not to be trusted.

I played CM till the 04.

Then I quit playing football manager due other interests.

In 2006 I was accidentally beamed to a games store and I saw the two managers next to each other: CM & FM.

I couldn't resist and was prepared to buy a manager game again, but only one of them would make the way to my home.

Confused and in doubt I selected for FM. I don't why anymore.

Later, I noticed in magazines that FM was the standard, the real thing.
