Football Manager 2008 FAQ

As always when a new version of Football Manager is announced a lot of questions are asked. I’ve found answers for some of the most asked questions.

(you can also check out the Football Manager 2008 Announcement and the FM 2008 Screenshots)

Why no mention of Football Manager Handheld or Football Manager on Xbox 360?

Those announcements will come later in the year.

Why are there no match engine screen shots?

The match screen isn’t finished yet. When it is, there will be shots of it.

What are there no screen shots of non-UK teams?

For licensing reasons. They will come later.

Why are all the screen shots in English?

All the text is written in English, and then translated, so the non-English language text isn’t in the game yet.

Will other information be given out about the game before release?

Yes – there are going to be blogs and pod casts that will give more information and more depth of information about the announced new features, and some of the smaller unannounced ones. (Like this one)

Why is the game only being released on XP/Vista for PC?

To ensure Vista compliance, some things had to be changed that could cause problems with older operating systems. As the makers of those systems no longer offer support for them, neither do we.

Is the game being released in ?

If the game was released officially in your country last year, then it will be this year. We are trying to get more digital download opportunities for people based in countries where it’s not sold at retail.

Where can I buy WWSM08 in America?

You will be able to get the boxed game from amazon.com, like last year
