Anyone knows any info on the new features?
Gaming Football Manager 2009
- Thread starter Red Pavan
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Os there a release date yet?
As for new features, there's not really a lot they can add to the game anymore in my mind - however i say that each year and i'm constantly impressed by even the subtle changes.
Its rubbish playing the old version once all the transfers have taken place, unless of course you download the update patches.
Anyone remember total club manager 2004??
I think the first management game i played proper was something like premier manager on the playstation!
I always signed costacurta!!
ah memories
Good point, they are usually promoting the next FM game around this time. Maybe this year they are just focusing on the FM Live launch?
The only thing I know is that almost every team will have a smaller transfer budget than last year, thanks to this credit crunch malarky.
I read somewhere that they were focusing all their attention and publicity on Football Manager Live. Hence the lack of news.
Usually by this time we get to know the new features.

My post above yours is the major announcement!!
That video is for fm 2008! The 2009 one doesn't seem to have been uploaded yet.
Yeah, but that link is where the video will be posted when it is released.
I see! Wooooooooo!
Official videos.

If the hours spent in my life on hunting for bargain 2nd division Spanish sweepers and watching little circles run around on my laptop had been directed towards something useful, then I would be a millionaire. But would I be happy?
Who wants to guess City's transfer budget?
Damn I want it now!!!
How about in 3D?
3D match engine, that's quite huge - hopefully I'll be able to run it.
Yeah, my initial euphoria dimmed somewhat when I thought about that point..
I doubt it's going to tax computers.
SI have said that they want to keep it as widely-available as possible, so I think any video card that does basic 3D graphics will do.
Apparently, there's screenshots here, but it's piss-slow: http://www.sigames.com/softography.php?type=view&id=31
[edit] 2D will still be available for the terrified, so you don't have to tax your computer.
My baaaaaaaaaaaad.
It's like the Caf on Monday night..
3D match engine
Sadly, I can't even see the first screenshot.It's like the Caf on Monday night..
Even better: Berbatov in 3D.3D match engine
Sounds good.
Berbadynamic.Even better: Berbatov in 3D.
I promised myself not to buy this...but that 3D match engine does look good.
Why would you do such a thing?
It probably takes over his life like it does the rest of us.
Female managers. 
This looks fantastic.
