Amazon.co.uk Review Theres little point beating about the bush, Football Manager 2005 is a staggering achievement and the finest football management game ever to appear on any format. Its success, ultimately, is down to the fact that it pulls off a spectacularly tricky balancing act. On one hand, theres a gigantic database of teams, players and statistics with staggering depths of detail; and on the other is an extremely user-friendly interface that always puts you at the heart of the game, and allows you to easily and succinctly use the vast reservoirs of tools and options at your disposal. It might be putting things simply, but the two have been married up to create a standout game. But then all this is hardly a surprise. Football Manager 2005 has been created by the team behind the Championship Manager series, and whilst they no longer have the rights to use the brand name, the actual games origins are never in question. Frankly, there are so many improvements, its impossible to scratch the surface of them. So well focus on two. The media section really hangs together properly for arguably the first time, with intriguing options that allow you to play mind games with other managers for instance. And the match day segment has come on at speed, with a smooth and useful highlights option that feels far more natural and integrated than previously. Does it have flaws? The odd one or two, which are minor niggles caused more as a result of extreme ambition on the part of the developers rather than sloppy work. Yet the real worry is the amount of time the game will sap. Make no mistake, for any armchair football fan who has ever dreamed of taking their team to glory, Football Manager 2005 will rob them of months of their life. In short, its easy-to-use, its desperately challenging, incredibly addictive and downright unmissable. Accept no imitations.--Simon Brew Review "Once you accept your first management job, you can bid farewell to months of free time 5/5" -- The Times Manufacturer's Description Football Manager 2005 will feature teams from 158 divisions in 51 countries. With the inclusion of reserve and youth teams, the number of league teams available to players of the game exceeds 5,000, while the international teams (with the senior squads augmented by their under-19, under-21 and under-23 counterparts) brings the total to 5,300. FM 2005's scope easily exceeds that of Sports Interactive's previous most comprehensive football management game, which showcased teams from 42 nations. FM 2005 includes leagues from a number of countries which have not featured in Sports Interactive's previous titles, including Belarus, Bulgaria, Chile, Iceland, Malaysia, Peru, Romania, Slovenia and Uruguay.
