You're telling me they could not add any new features or a change of skin, psp is more then capable of handling that. The bugs aren't game breaking at all and with a team of only 2 they have focused their efforts on the systems that will allow them to add features - iOS and Android.

Perhaps the title of this game should be Football Manager Abridged given that so many fun aspects of the game have been cutout to squeeze the game onto the PSP. I'm the biggest fan of football manager on the PC, I can easily spend hours and hours at a time on it.

Even so, we did have initial concerns that the vast amount of text that you need to cram on the screen would also prove to be a limiting factor, but not so.

It'll take a bit of getting used to, for sure, but SI has opted for a pleasingly intuitive solution that's the next best thing. Hi, Final Fantasy 7 crisis core and kingdom hearts birth by sleep, those are two games I suggest you check out.

Actually, that's a lie - it's the most complete simulation of everything connected to the business of football management imaginable.If all you want to do is focus on the team selection, in-game tactics and an occasional dip into the transfer market, then it's all here, and couldn't really be any more intuitive.

The shoulder buttons, meanwhile, act as 'back' and 'next', and within minutes the general navigation becomes almost as easy as the full game. It's quite likely that you're a bit like me - a former football management addict who had to go cold turkey and leave it far behind - and not just for the predictable reasons of it being 'too compulsive' and being threatened with justifiable violence by your significant other.It is especially good for passing time on long journeys as it is based on strategy rather than button bashing so games can be left to run at certain times without interference. For the purposes of handheld play, these snack-sized portions of managerial meddling work brilliantly, and help negate the tedious faffing that often goes with getting a game up and running. The game was a hit and spawned several sequels, including Football Manager 2 (1988), Football Manager: World Cup Edition (1990) and Football Manager 3 (1993). Some people evidently love meddling with the training and match preparation and poring over their youth and reserve team prospects as much as others loathe these minutiae.
